Philosophy Statement
The philosophical vision of TBCA is rooted in the Christian view of life. We celebrate the Triune God as the author of all truth and reality as He is revealed in Scripture and creation. The center of a student's education is Jesus Christ, through Whom all other learning must be viewed and integrated. He is both the reason and source for learning. The design for Christian learning integrates increased understanding of the natural world, human history, culture, and the arts with increased personal knowledge of God revealed in Christ and understood through the Scriptures.
As a school, we depend on the Holy Spirit to do His work of illumination. However, because sin entered God's universe and man exists with a fallen nature, and the fall has damaged man's ability to learn and know, we rely on God's grace which allows men to understand the truth and reality and fulfill some of his creative potential.
TBCA, as an educational institution, believes bringing up a child in Christlikeness is primarily the responsibility and Biblical duty of the parent. Our school exists to assist in that education but will never replace the role of the family. We work in partnership with the family as we work through our shared commitment to the student's upbringing. That commitment is expressed in a mutual desire to see each child's character transformed to reflect the image of Christ and impact the world in his or her calling, family, and community.
While in this process of transformation, TBCA seeks to develop the potentially of each student. Each child is uniquely created, possessing gifts enabling him or her to reflect upon his own purpose within God's plan and world. As a matter of stewardship, instructional strategies are built on the child's strengths, talents,
and limitations, preparing him or her to confront life's intellectual philosophical, and creative with well-reasoned faith.
While exploring the sciences, mathematics, language arts, humanities, technology, culture, and extracurricular activities, we seek to nurture the student's maturity in leadership, self-discipline, and personal and social development. This process can truly happen only through the application of Scripture and by placing God, not man, at the center of learning. In understanding God's sovereignty over all creation, we recognize all truth as coming from God. Our program of faith and learning integrates Biblical principles, character development, and challenging academics into one curriculum, striving to stimulate a life-long love of learning, a Biblical worldview, and Christ-like thinking in all settings.
