CORE VALUES: Legacy Christian Academy affirms these essential beliefs and strives to honor and uphold them in all aspects of school life.
Pursuit of Truth. We affirm "all truth is God's truth" through a liberal arts education that fosters a love for learning and a desire for wisdom. (John 8:32: and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free)
Primacy of Scripture. We teach all subjects from a biblical worldview and we apply the truth and authority of biblical principles in all situations. (2 Timothy 3:16-17: All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.)
Imago Dei. We respect all people as individuals created in the image of God and we celebrate the diversity of gifts and callings. (Genesis 1:26: Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness.)
Covenant relationships. We build relationships that foster mutual support, respect, and a commitment to promote the welfare of others. (Philippians 2:3-4: Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others
Discipleship. We, as Christ-followers, are committed to a life of virtue and acting as agents in God's plan of restoration. (Matthew 16:24: Then Jesus told his disciples, if anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.)
Servant-leadership. We provide opportunities to serve one another, our community, and our world. (Matthew 20:26-28: But whoever would be great among you must be your servant, and whoever would be first among you must be your slave, even as the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.)
