Beacon Christian Elementary School

Teaching Philosophy

Distinctively Christian. First and foremost, Beacon is a school that acknowledges that Jesus Christ is Lord of all things. Jesus is Lord of the ten through-lines that suggest what it means to be a follower of Christ in every area of life. Jesus is at the centre of our weekly chapels and daily devotions. Christ-like principles and practices will guide our teaching, learning, and all relationships at school. Equipping. Engaging. Excelling. Beacon trains its students to be lights in today’s world, equipping our children with a high academic, excellent education. Fully aware that educational research proves time and again that a well-rounded program, rich in the arts, serves all students well, Beacon is committed to educating the whole child. A Community of Belonging. We recognize the diversity that exists amongst God’s children. We desire Beacon to be a school for all, realizing that each child that comes through our doors is a unique creation of the one true God – made in His image – regardless of ability, ethnic background, or socio-economic status.
