Christian Education at CCA - Our Philosophy and Statement of Faith

Christian Central Academy is a not-for-profit, independent, interdenominational Christian school, chartered by the State of New York with full authority to award Regents diplomas. Faculty are certified by the New York State Department of Education are are dedicated to providing Christian education at the elementary and secondary school levels. Its mission is to provide an environment in which the faculty, staff and student body will grow "in wisdom, stature, and in favor with God and Man." (Luke 2:52)

Christian Central Academy bases its educational philosophy upon the existence of God; Creator and Sustainer of all things, and Savior. In this philosophy of Christian education, we maintain a God-centered view, emphasizing belief in the God of the Bible and His revelation through Jesus Christ. We affirm the Bible to be the inspired, infallible, authoritative Word of God, our source of absolute truth. God has created all things and has revealed Himself through the written Word (Hebrews 1:1,2), the living Word (John 1:1,2, 14) and His creation (Psalm 19:1-2). We recognize that man is created in God's image (Genesis 1:27); he cannot glorify God, unless he chooses to accept God's free gift of salvation through His Son, Jesus Christ (John 1:12).

Christian Central Academy exists to provide a level of excellence that is worthy of both the names Christian and Education. Since God's Word is the source of all truth, true education must take place in the light of God's Word. No subject can be taught in its entirety if the Creator is ignored or denied. Christian Central Academy enables the student to develop a worldview consistent with Scripture. Education involved the development and formation of the mind for the purpose of perceiving, understanding and pursuing truth. Christian education is a means used by God to bring students to Himself through personal faith in Christ, and to empower students to fulfill God's will in their personal lives and in their vocations.

Christian Central Academy believes that each child is a unique individual with God -given value, gifts and talents. We recognize the family as God's vehicle for nurturing and training children and seek to reinforce such training through our educational and extra-curricular programs. It is our desire that the atmosphere, attitude, and activities in the school be permeated by a Christian life view. With such a perspective, student can maintain a balanced life, giving proper place to home, school, Church, respectively, and to extra-curricular activities.

Christian Central Academy recognizes that the influence of the teacher on children's attitudes and beliefs is great. In school, the teacher has a position of authority. The teacher promotes scriptural standards of right and wrong, teaches the student to honor and love God and sets an example in prayer. Our teachers, administrators, and board are committed to Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and reflect that commitment in their interactions with colleagues and students, and in the integration of Christian principles in their respective areas. We pray for and with our students, and provide opportunities for them to confess Christ as Savior.

The education provided at Christian Central Academy engages students with academic challenge and support. The teachers, many of whom hold advanced degrees, promote superior academic quality, teaching a curriculum exceeding New York State academic educational standards. Our students are encouraged to reach their highest level of preparedness; to qualify for higher education, and to pursue their vocations or professions in a manner that is God-glorifying. Christian education at Christian Central Academy serves as a foundation for the student to make honest, informed, and confident choices in the present and future, based upon God's Word and His direction in their lives.

As a distinctly Christ-centered school and community, Christian Central Academy is, therefore, committed to core biblically-based foundational beliefs from which flow the ultimate rationale for all that we do. Following is our

Statement of Faith:

We believe

the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God.
there is only one GOD eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
in the deity of JESUS CHRIST, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His sacrificial and atoning death, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father where He is our Mediator and Advocate, and in His personal return in power and glory.
that the LORD JESUS CHRIST died for our sins according to the Scriptures as a representative and substitutionary sacrifice, and that all who believe in Him are justified on the ground of His shed blood.
in the exceeding sinfulness of fallen human nature and in the absolute necessity of regeneration by the HOLY SPIRIT for salvation.
that the HOLY SPIRIT convicts of sin, effects the new birth, gives guidance in life, empowers for service, and enables perseverance in faith and holiness.
in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost, they who are saved to the resurrection of life and they who are lost into the resurrection of damnation.
in the spiritual body of CHRIST, the church, of which all true believers are members.
