ON
CALVARY BAPTIST ACADEMY SHALL ENDEAVOR TO:
Establish the rightful dominion of God upon the Christian home, the church, the school, the community, and the world. Influence the lives of children with the view and philosophy of the Bible for their proper mental, emotional, moral, social, economic, and spiritual development. Develop the succeeding generations, young men and women who, through quality Biblical Christian education, will be able to fulfill their God-given talents and potentials and become Christian leaders that will impact the world community for Christ. IMPORTANCE OF BIBLICAL EDUCATION

Proverbs 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it. Parents will give account to God for the education that their children receive. Parents have the primary responsibility the nurture of their children which includes the cultivation of their spirit, the formation of their character, the education of their mind, the growth of their body, and the development of their gifts. The bible provides the basis of Calvary Baptist Academy educational philosophy, methodology, and character building. Biblical values and character training are inseparable from true education. DISCIPLINE is what is done FOR the child, not what is done TO him. Prepare for Harvest
Ecclesiastes 3:1 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
2 A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
PLANTING. Studies indicate that by the time a child has his six-year molars, he has already acquired 80 percent of the attitudes, values, fears, and loyalties he will demonstrate for the rest of his life. WATERING. The second stage of education is that of proper watering. This watering process is imperative to growth and future productivity. For the child, it involves the foundational mastery of academic subjects received in grade-levels one through six. CULTIVATING. The third stage of learning spans from First year through Fourth Year and may be thought of as the period of cultivation. This is the time when concepts previously learned will be evaluated and synthesized for full understanding and application. HARVESTING. The final stage in the educational process is harvesting. It is the culmination of planting, watering, and cultivating the educational and spiritual life of a child. CBA individualized mastery-based curriculum used prepares students academically, and the Biblical principles mold the student spiritually. The following Five Laws of Learning sum up the Calvary Baptist Academy academic philosophy:
Law 1. The pupil must be on a level of curriculum where he can perform. Law 2. The pupil must set achievable goals he can complete in a prescribed period of time. Law 3. The pupil must be controlled and motivated to assimilate, use, or experience the material. Law 4. The pupil’s learning must be measurable. Law 5. The pupil’s learning must be rewarded.
