Liberty Classical Academy - Christian Worldview

Christian Worldview

Liberty is a nondenominational Christian school, and welcomes students of any or no religious background, with the understanding that only basic Christian doctrine will be taught.

"The Christian element gives kids a moral grounding, and it is so important for our culture to have a moral grounding. When kids are taught that they are created by God and that he has a plan for them, it gives them a purpose—which in turn gives them motivation and self-confidence outside of what the world can provide."
—Rebekah Hagstrom, Director

As the classical approach also encourages the development of virtue and leadership, students at every level participate in community service and ministry projects. Seniors must provide leadership roles in campus activities and fulfill 30 hours of community service, which culminates in a ministry trip every spring. In May 2009, they will "spend a week helping lower-income elderly in Washington D.C. maintain their homes' exteriors and yards through Episcopal Senior Ministries, a program that helps older folks stay in their homes as long as possible. The students will also visit and encourage elderly residents in group and nursing homes."
