Christian School Philosophy
The educational philosophy of Lakewood is dependent upon the Bible in interpreting any subject or in planning any school activity. Education is seen as a means to an end, used by God to bring students to Himself through personal faith in Christ and to develop Christian minds. This will enable them to fulfill God's will in their lives, both personally and vocationally. The mandate for Christian education comes from God's command that children are to be taught to love God and to give Him preeminence in their lives, and from the Biblical teaching that parents are responsible for the total education of their children.
