In order to ensure an
overall program of excellence, Loganville Christian Academy uses a variety
of publishers to accomplish the goals for its curriculum. At LCA, curriculum
is the overview of what is to be accomplished on each grade level. We endeavor
to foster natural curiosity and a passion for learning. Our teachers do not
simply transmit information, but are facilitators of effective learning. Our
students learn to make connections, test ideas and make sense of the world
with their new knowledge through application in short-term and long-term activities
and projects. Our students are well grounded in the basic facts of math and
science and are able to use this information in real world problems and application.
Our students are being trained to become critical thinkers.
Textbooks are just one
of the resources we use to accomplish the curriculum. Textbooks are chosen
with much research, thought and prayer. Possible choices for textbooks are
evaluated by a team, supervised by LCA's Instructional Lead Teacher, for their
academic value and their appropriateness in relationship to our conservative
Christian environment.
The publishers that LCA
use include both secular and Christian companies. Some of our publishers are
Open Court, Everyday Mathematics, Bob Jones, ACSI, and ABeka. Students
are taught that God's word is always the authority - not a textbook. In using
several secular texts, teachers have the opportunity to teach children how
to discern truth from error. Secular texts are always taught from a biblical
perspective.
In our instructional
program, high expectations are set for all students. To ensure achievement
of this, we provide the following:
* competent teachers,
* an organized and coherent curriculum,
* lessons that are challenging yet designed to accommodate different learning
styles, and
* a learning environment that is the epitome of caring and support.
