Christian Liberty Academy provides an atmosphere wherein young people are exposed to the absolute truth of God's Word.
Jesus instructed His disciples in John 8:2, "And ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free." Not only is it our objective to teach the truth, but also to teach our students how to apply the truth wisely to their own lives.
In John 16:13, we are promised that "when He, the Spirit of truth is come, He will guide you into all truth." We desire to train each student to accept individual responsibility to God for his/her own actions and to challenge the student to glorify God in every facet of his/her life.
Our Christian school has the responsibility to provide the best possible education.
A biblical viewpoint in the vital areas of life spiritual growth, education, personal self-discipline, and patriotism must be strongly stressed during a child's formative years.
We desire to minister to the needs of the whole child and to promote his spiritual and moral growth, academic and intellectual progress, and physical and social development.
