The Bible clearly points to the parents as the ones who have responsibility for educating their children. The Christian school exists to come along side and help parents in that pursuit. However, as I tell many parents during parent interviews, the ultimate responsibility for the child's education lies with the parents. We (the Christian school and its teachers) will work hard and do whatever possible to assist in providing that education, but in the end the parents must take responsibility. The education that parents are responsible for assuring is not purely subject knowledge, but it includes teaching the child about God and living a holy and separate life seeking to conform to the image of Christ.
