Children today are growing up in challenging times! Will they have what it takes to face and overcome the complex challenges of life in our rapidly changing world? Or will they cower in the face of life’s problems, missing out on the opportunity to experience the fulfillment and growth that comes through overcoming challenges?
Christ the King School believes that Jesus has a special plan and purpose for every child. We help kids discover Christ’s special calling for their lives as God's own children by grace.
As kids discover more and more of all that they are as dearly loved children of God, they grow to become young adults who live out their lives from a deep sense of calling. They know their purpose and they are excited to bring it life every day in their families, their work, their community, and their churches.
Christ the King Academy operates as part of the overall ministry plan of Christ the King Lutheran Church and seeks to carry out the campus-wide mission of…"People Helping People Become All Christ Calls Them to Be"
Christ the King Lutheran Church and Academy work cooperatively in carrying out this mission on campus and in our community. With the all-powerful Word of God CTK will encourage God’s people to grow and reach out into our community to those who may not yet know Jesus as their Savior from sin.
To carry out its mission, Christ the King Academy commits to working with parents/guardians in training, instructing, developing, encouraging, and nurturing their children.
Christ the King Academy partners with families to see children succeed in all aspects of life to ensure that children will have what it takes to make a positive impact in this community and beyond. CTK desires to serve families by helping their children grow and develop into all they are designed to be and has identified four specific areas in which to serve students in the process of Becoming All Christ Calls Them to Be.
Christ the King Academy will partner with families to help students grow within the five domains of development - spiritual, intellectual, physical, emotional, and social.
Christ the King Academy also believes that students need to be equipped for a world that is constantly changing. It is likely that many of the careers CTK students will find themselves in do not yet exist.
CTK will partner with families to provide opportunities for students to develop the 21st Century Skills of Critical Thinking/Problem-solving, Communication, Collaboration, and Creativity/Innovation
CTK will partner with families to provide opportunities for students to develop the Life Success Skills of Integrity, Self-Discipline, Empathy, Perseverance, and Values
CTK will partner with families to equip students for readiness in the 4 C’s - Ready for College, Career, Citizenship, and Christian-living
The blessing of Christian education is that these objectives and qualities are developed with guidance from the scriptural tenants of Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and Love your neighbor as yourself (Matthew 22:37, 39).
Being guided and directed by this vision and these objectives, CTK School seeks to assist and serve parents as they ask, “Will my child know what it is to be all Christ calls them to be and enjoy life as the Lord intends?”
