A private school education stresses<br />
the importance of an education that<br />
sets high academic standards that will<br />
challenge the students throughout their<br />
academic pursuits. In addition, a private<br />
school has a tendency to foster<br />
smaller class sizes, which in turn cultivates<br />
an educational environment that<br />
has more one-on-one interaction with<br />
the teacher and enables the student to<br />
receive help for academic challenges,<br />
promotes increased class participation,<br />
and allows the teacher to really understand<br />
the students and identify their<br />
weaknesses, as well as their strengths.<br />
A private, Christian school also offers<br />
a diverse, yet intimate, community<br />
of students and families who share a<br />
common set of beliefs, interests and<br />
standards that foster a sense of belonging.<br />
This enriches the environment<br />
that promotes learning and growth<br />
that can be done both on an individual<br />
basis as well as together.<br />
There also is an emphasis on discipline<br />
that is structured around Christian<br />
values and is reflected in various traits,<br />
including thoughtfulness, kindness<br />
and understanding. These elements<br />

transcend into the environment, where<br />
students feel safe both physically and<br />
mentally and that allows students to<br />
be dedicated to the process of learning<br />
rather than uncertainty and worry.<br />
Lastly, values are perhaps one<br />
of the most important elements of<br />
a Christian education. A Christcentered<br />
approach to teaching and<br />
learning allows a private, Christian<br />
school to truly partner with families<br />
and the church to build a foundation<br />
for life that will serve its students well<br />
for the exciting life that lies ahead.<br />
