christian home school - why do it?
- First, and foremost this choice of education means having the freedom to teach your child Godly values, and Biblical principles. It's having the freedom to pray and recite the Pledge of Allegiance without confusion.
- A Home School education means making decisions about the child's health, nutrition, and exercise. It's also a good way to keep your child away from other children who may be ill, carry lice, or colds and flu germs.
- Children learn by doing! Making this decision means going to Christian-based events, enjoying exciting activities with others in this type program, or having time for educational travel.
- One-on-one training. Children need special attention and this method offers the opportunity to spend extra time teaching so the lessons are learned thoroughly and at the child's own pace.
- It's important for a child to feel safe. Educating a child in his/her environment means there are no fire drills, lockdowns, gun threats, or other obstacles that may cause a child to feel insecure.
- Bullying is not an issue! Learning at home being in an environment that's more peaceful, and less stressful.
