What does Dr. Black mean when she says the Christian school is important in raising a generation that is more than just competent cognitively?
-
She means they will be left to disciple and share the good news with future generations. Additionally their own eternity is at stake.

Of course we need to deal with our students on a scholastic level, but what will ultimately prepare them for life is the strength of their moral compass. If we focus on their discipleship and sanctification, that will guide them where they need to go.

We are helping raise the next generation of diligent, mindful, and prepared Christians.

The Bible tells us that we are to pass on to the next generation stories of God’s love and mercy and what He has done for us. Although knowledge of Math, English, Science, etc. is important, knowing these things becomes vain if they are not used for God’s honor and glory in the life He has called each of us to. Some parents are unable to be home to teach their children the precepts of God. When that is the case, a Christian school provides parents with a place their children can not only learn the skills necessary to lead a successful life by the worlds standards, but also where they can learn how to lead a life in close relationship with the Lord which is what we were ultimately designed for.

We are equipping the next generation of leaders who like us are everlasting creatures. They need wisdom as well as nuts-and-bolts of knowledge.
