Educating students for eternity means that we are not just educating them about addition, or the Civil War, but about their purpose on this earth is to know and have a relationship with a loving God, who created them in His image for the purpose of knowing and serving Him. Therefore, everything we do is for His glory. That is an eternal mindset.
