Dear Eagle Nation:

I am excited to announce that at its March meeting, the Legacy Christian Academy Board of Trustees adopted a revised mission statement, crafted a new vision statement, and affirmed a set of core values that define our strongly held beliefs about Christian education. As you know, we have been engaged in a year-long strategic planning process to establish a roadmap for the future of our school. The strategic planning process is an ideal time to review an institution's governing policies and statements such as mission, vision, and core values. With input from school leaders and a focus group of parents, the Board of Trustees developed these statements to serve as guideposts for the goals, initiatives, and action plans that are in the process of being developed. You will soon see these statements on our website, building signage, and in promotional materials. Our marketing department will begin developing mottos and tag lines that reflect these beliefs. We hope you are encouraged and even inspired by these new statements.

MISSION STATEMENT

Legacy Christian Academy develops strong leaders with biblical convictions who are equipped to succeed in college and beyond.

We accomplish this mission through a balanced approach that honors and upholds

  • challenging academics
  • robust fine arts
  • competitive athletics
  • positive mentoring relationships
  • covenant partnerships with Christian families

VISION STATEMENT

Legacy Christian Academy is the school of choice for committed Christian families in North Texas who desire the best Christ-centered education for their children.

CORE VALUES

Legacy Christian Academy affirms these essential beliefs and strives to honor and uphold them in all aspects of school life.

Pursuit of Truth. We affirm “all truth is God's truth” through a liberal arts education that fosters a love for learning and a desire for wisdom. (John 8:32: and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.)

Primacy of Scripture. We teach all subjects from a biblical worldview and we apply the truth and authority of biblical principles in all situations. (2 Timothy 3:16-17: All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.)

Imago Dei. We respect all people as individuals created in the image of God and we celebrate the diversity of gifts and callings. (Genesis 1:26: Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness.)

Covenant relationships. We build relationships that foster mutual support, respect, and a commitment to promote the welfare of others. (Philippians 2:3-4: Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.)

Discipleship. We, as Christ-followers, are committed to a life of virtue and acting as agents in God's plan of restoration. (Matthew 16:24: Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.)

Servant-leadership. We provide opportunities to serve one another, our community, and our world. (Matthew 20:26-28: But whoever would be great among you must be your servant, and whoever would be first among you must be your slave, even as the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.)
