Dallas Christian Academy Home & School

 


What is Home & School?
 

The Home and School Association is an organization designed to unite the home and school in endeavors to provide Christian education for the children of the church and to provide an agency to bring about cooperation between the kindergartens, church schools, academies, and the parents or guardians of the students.

 


What is the Purpose of Home and School?
 

The purpose of the Association is twofold: 1) to help parents better understand Christian education and in this way 2) to unite the home, the school, and the church in their endeavors to provide a Christian education for their children. The responsibilities of the Home and School Association are:

1. To conduct monthly meetings for parents, teachers, and all church members.

2. To maintain an instructional library for parents.

3. To provide opportunity for parents to learn how to establish an atmosphere of love in their homes where Seventh-day Adventist Christian values and discipline can be instilled in their children through Bible study, prayer, family worship, and the example of the parents.

4. To educate parents to understand the process of developing the whole child – “the harmonious development of the physical, the mental and the spiritual powers.” Education, p. 13

5. To work toward the goal of enrolling every child of the church in the church school.

6. To provide an opportunity for parents and teachers to develop positive relationships as they work for the children.

7. To strengthen the relationship between the home and the school by having:
          A. Joint participation in curriculum development.
          B. Frequent communication activities between home and school.
          C. Parents visit the school.
          D. Teachers visit the home of pupils.
