Policies and Procedures

Dear Parents, 

Woodland Christian School exists to glorifying God by providing the best Christian school education in the region, for PS-12th grade. We realize that you have chosen our school because of the commitment that you have for your child’s academic, social, and spiritual success. We view you, the parents, as the primary educators that entrust your child to us for well-rounded academic development. Our school provides a loving and nurturing environment that promotes curiosity and creativity. 

Please read this material carefully, so that you may know what is expected of you and your children. 

There are two kinds of laws: 1) MORAL and 2) POSITIVE. A moral law is commanded because it is right and a positive law is right because it is commanded. "You must not lie" is a moral law. Telling a lie has always been wrong and always will be wrong. But positive laws may change, such as, "Jog t-shirts may be worn on Fridays.” Next year this standard may change. 

However, both moral and positive laws require obedience. Our response to both is to be cheerful and from the heart. 

Therefore, I challenge you this year to: 

1) Support the school in prayer that we do all things to the glory of our Heavenly Father. You may never know when your prayers or lack of them will make the difference in a student’s life. 

2) Support the school policy. You may not personally agree with all of the rules and standards set by the school, however consider that your attitudes will be reflected in your child's actions and attitudes. 

3) Support the school personnel. All of our staff are human and will make mistakes. If something really bothers you, contact the teacher. If the problem persists, contact the site principal. If the problem cannot be resolved, please contact me as a final arbiter. It is unwise and unkind to call other parents about your problems with us. We will accept your complaints courteously and appreciatively. Please contact teachers during school hours through the office or via e-mail. Please do not call teachers or administrators at home unless there is an emergency. 

These three key principles are the foundation that Woodland Christian School has been established and built upon. These principles are the key to a healthy relationship form the school to the home front. Let us adopt as our goal, Colossians 1:18 which states in part, “that in all things He might have preeminence.” 

Thank You, 

Dave Hargadon
