Carlisle Christian Academy: Educating for Excellence

In these turbulent times, few decisions are more important and as far-reaching as the education for your child. At Carlisle Christian Academy, we offer a disciplined, yet loving environment where every child receives personal attention. We see each student as a unique person created by God to live the fullest and most significant life possible. We are devoted to three priorities in our students’ lives:
                       
►  Expanding the Mind
►  Energizing the Heart
►  Enriching the Life

Expanding the Mind:  A child’s mind holds tremendous power and potential, yet all its promise will not be unlocked unless it experiences comprehensive, compelling, and creative teaching. This is what we provide every day as our dedicated staff diligently ensures that true learning takes place. Our teachers make the classroom a place of discovery—a center of scholastically challenging energy.

Energizing the Heart:  Children are pliable, and their young hearts will be shaped either positively or negatively by the dominant influences in their lives. We are committed to shaping the lives of our students by inspiring them to express the qualities which matter most: honesty in word and deed, kindness toward others, respect for authority, and trust in God. Central to our philosophy is the belief that a strong intellect alone is inadequate to face life’s demands. For a fruitful life, one must also have a strong heart.

Enriching the Life:  The environment in which a child learns best is one filled with joy, acceptance, and Christ-like concern. This is why we are determined to provide a spiritually nurturing environment. We are guided by the conviction that each student needs to learn, but needs as well to be loved. At our school, this conviction translates to thousands of activities and expressions. It is a word of encouragement for a job well done. It is a word of reinforcing concern for a job not so well done. It is a concerted effort to prevent anyone from feeling “left out.” It is so very much in so very many ways; and at our school, it is simply the way things are.
