[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Religion as part of school [/quote] +1 Because if I’m going to send my kid out into the world to be influenced by other adults and peers for 7 hours a day, it’s comforting to know that those influencers share our faith and worldview. DC can always choose to go another way or form friendships later with people of other faiths and worldviews, but his foundation will be as a believer in Christ surrounded by other believers who will encourage his faith to grow. There’s plenty of time to be challenged and explore questions when he is old enough to discern AND feel secure in who and whose he is. “Teach your child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.” Proverbs 22:6[/quote] This is us, plus a more traditional education (spelling lists, grammar, lower screens which are basically used to teach typing, slightly more discipline). We also love the opportunities a smaller school provides our kids to try more things.[/quote]
