Review of 11/08

We would like to thank each of you who participated in our survey.  They revealed that most families entrust their children to KCA because they desire a Biblical foundation, Christian values, and a challenging academic environment that will spread the Word of God in Callaway County.  

 

At our faculty in-service on the Philosophy of Christian Education our faculty discovered that KCA’s core values lack “humility” and proposed this addition to the Mission statement.

 

In light of our recent evaluations of the KCA handbooks, suggestions from the faculty, and the results of our survey we recently requested that the board make some changes to the handbooks. The most significant changes approved were:

 - the addition of a Philosophy Statement

- the addition of an Educational Philosophy Statement similar to one in the teacher handbook

- the Purpose Statement was replaced by one that reflects by-laws and includes educating children

- the creation of a new Vision Statement

- the addition of School Wide Learning Results which were altered from the teacher handbook.

We will get the handbook updated on the web very soon since reprints will not be made until February. 

 

Our faculty is working diligently on the next phase of ACSI STAR program which will define subject and grade level goals for the entire curriculum. 

ACSI STAR Step 1A was successfully submitted and accepted.
