“You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength. And these words which I command you today shall be in your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up.” Deuteronomy 6:5-7
The Division of Independent Studies at Mansfield Christian School assists parents by providing support in the task of educating their children if they should choose this educational option.
The Division of Independent Studies is designed to:
- Provide the opportunity for IS students to be enrolled as students of Mansfield Christian School
- Support and encourage parents as educators
- Foster fellowship among families
- Offer supplemental opportunities for students, such as sports, music programs, drama, etc.
- Offer a pool of resources and services – curriculum resource room,on campus classes for
students, field trips, ect. - Motivate with accountability– monthly visits with an experienced and certified teacher.
Independent Studies students can take post secondary classes upon qualification and have the option to take up to three classes on campus in junior high and high school. Elementary students attend classes two days a month with the option of a third day. We offer the benefits of a Christian school with the freedom of an educational option that is tailored to the individual student.
Included in the family tuition fee, families are equiped with MCS curriculum complete with teacher editions. A family, however, may choose curriculum more specifically tailored to meet their need. Independent Studies' students graduate with an MCS diploma upon completion of their high school requirements.
Educational options provide an extraordinary opportunity for parents to extend their training efforts in the lives of their school-aged children. With diligent effort, parents can successfully educate their children with the support of the IS program. The Independent Studies program exists to help parents with this opportunity and to enhance and supplement their efforts. Our intent is to offer a program that allows parents to be efficient with their resources, and effective in educating, training, and discipling their children.
It is my privilege to serve families who take the scripture literally “to train up a child in the way he should go.”
