Purpose Statement
The
Corinth Academy is an extension of the Christian home and the local
church for training young people in a Christian environment, with the
emphasis on matters of eternal value. The academy staff is
dedicated to working closely with parents to train and develop the
whole child.
Attendance at The Corinth Academy should be
considered a privilege and not merely a right. Our goal is to
train Christian youth in the principles of God's Word, stressing such
vital areas as: leadership, self-discipline, responsibility,
integrity, good citizenship, and consistency. The church, as does
the academy, stands for the highest standards of morality, honesty, and
genuine Christian character.
The Corinth Academy is one of the
educational ministries of the TheChurchOfCorinth. The purpose of
The Corinth Academy is to educate and train the whole student -
physically, socially, intellectually, and spiritually. Guidelines for
personal habits and definite dress codes are provided. The
principle of self discipline is the basis of our disciplinary
structure. In addition to self discipline, a young person must
have Biblical knowledge that is developed into understanding to more
effectively serve God. Therefore, the Bible is not substituted
for any academic subject, but is integrated into the total educational
program. The Corinth Academy desires to develop students that
will become affective and productive believer in the Kingdom of God.
It
is also the school's desire to be a reinforcement of the Christian
home. Students are taught what the proper respect and
relationship between mother, father, child, husband, or wife and God
should be (Prov. 28:7, 22:6, 29:15; Eph. 6:4; Deut. 6:7, 31:13; I Tim.
3:4; Matt. 19:14). The home, like the church, is one of the
institutions God has ordained to carry out His plan for a Christian's
life. The Corinth Academy does not attempt to replace the
Christian home, but strives to strengthen the home according to God's
Word.
Standard of Conduct
Students
of the Academy are expected to refrain from engaging in/or talking
about: cheating, swearing, any use of tobacco, dancing, drinking
alcoholic beverages, and using narcotics. Any student who
participates in or talks about such activities is subject to immediate
suspension.
The Corinth Academy students are expected to
act in an orderly and respectful manner, always careful to maintain
good Christian standards of courtesy, kindness, clean language,
morality, and trustworthiness. Each student must sign a "Standard
of Conduct Form", agreeing to strive toward unquestionable character in
the areas of conduct, speech, and attitude.
Any student
observing questionable activities or overhearing conversations, which
are contrary to the policies of this academy, should immediately
discuss the matter with the administration.
All new students are admitted on a probationary basis for the first six (6) weeks.
Admissions Policy
The
Corinth Academy admits students of any race, color, and national and
ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities
generally accorded or made available to the students at the
academy. It does not discriminate on the basis of race, color,
and national and ethnic origin in administration of its educational
policies, admissions policies, athletics, and other school-administered
programs. The student's father and mother will not be a
discretion point.
