As the story of Charlotte Catholic School has shown us, any school wishing to be Christian must be thoroughly Christian: in purpose, content, curriculum, aim, and personnel.
Many Christian schools have announced plans to change campus culture and increase diversity following the death of George Floyd, including George Fox University, a Quaker-founded evangelical Christian school in Oregon.
Christian education begins with Christian assumptions about life and the world, aims for Christian goals, and is governed by Christian methodologies. In both their personal beliefs and their public lives, we hope to help students love God with heart, mind, soul and strength, and love their neighbors as themselves. Like all of us, Christian educators need ongoing training and tailored professional development to serve the unique challenges of their vocation.
To serve this incredibly important calling, the Colson Center has partnered with the Association of Christian Schools International and the International Alliance for Christian Education, two leading Christian education organizations, to offer a free, online, professional development program for schools and homeschool parents called “Worldviews and Cultural Fluency.”
