WELCOME
Thank you for considering enrolling your child at Orangewood Christian
School. OCS offers a superior academic foundation in the context of a
loving Christian environment. We encourage the development of the total
student: intellectual, spiritual, physical, emotional, and social. Our
programs emphasize the knowledge, skills, and attitudes needed to
develop students who are able to excel in college and beyond. The
following are requirements for admission:
At least one parent is a professing follower of Jesus Christ. If one
parent is not a
professing follower of Christ, he or she understands,
accepts, and supports the school’s
Christian philosophy of education and
will participate whenever possible.
At least one parent is an active member and weekly church attendee of a
local
Christian church which teaches and subscribes to the following:
God is a Triune God - the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
The Bible is God's infallible and authoritative Word to man. It is
the standard by which faith and practice are to be measured.
The chief end of man is to glorify God and enjoy Him forever.
Man is created in the image of God. Through his relationship to Adam,
man is a sinner
by nature and, thus, is alienated from God.
Jesus Christ is the only Savior of sinners, the only way to the
Father. He died as a
substitute for sinners and was raised from the dead
so that they might be reconciled to God.
Eternal life is a free gift that is received through faith in Jesus
Christ alone. Eternal life is neither deserved by anyone, nor can it be
earned by good deeds.
Affirm a commitment to a biblical view of parenting.
Affirm ultimate responsibility to educate our children.
Affirm a commitment to the educational philosophy of OCS.
Affirm a commitment to biblical communication: following Matthew
18 principles for
solving conflicts and refraining from gossip.
