To partner with families by providing a biblically-based, college-preparatory education so that students will be equipped to serve Christ and influence the world.

1. We believe the Bible to be the only inspired, infallible, authoritative, inerrant Word of God (2 Timothy 3:15, 2 Peter 1:21).

2. We believe there is one God, eternally existent in three persons – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Genesis 1:1. Matthew 28:19, John 10:30).

3. We believe in the deity of Christ (John 10:33); His virgin birth (Isaiah 7:14, Matthew 1:23, Luke 1:35); His sinless life (Hebrews 4:15, Hebrews 7:25); His miracles (John 2:11); His vicarious and atoning death (1 Corinthians 15:3, Ephesians 1, 7, Hebrews 2:9); His resurrection (John 11:25, 1 Corinthians 15:4); His ascension to the right hand of the Father (Mark 16:19); and His personal return to power and glory (Acts 1:11), Revelations 19:11).

4. We believe in the absolute necessity of regeneration by the Holy Spirit for salvation because of the exceeding sinfulness of human nature, that we are justified on the single ground of faith in the shed blood of Christ, and that we are saved only by God’s grace through faith (John 3:16-19, John 5:24, Romans 3:23, Romans 5:8-9, Ephesians 2:8-10, Titus 3:5).

5. We believe in the bodily resurrection of the dead, of the believer to everlasting blessedness and joy with the Lord, of the unbeliever to judgment and everlasting separation from God (1 Corinthians 15:51-54).

6. We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ (Romans 8:9, 1 Corinthians 12:12-13, Galatians 3:26-28).

7. We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling, the Christian is enabled to live a godly life (Romans 8:13-14, 1 Corinthians 3:16, 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, Ephesians 4:30, 5:18).

8. We believe all human life is sacred and created by God in His image. Human life is of inestimable worth in all its dimensions, including pre-born babies, the aged, the physically or mentally challenged, and every other stage or condition from conception through natural death. We are, therefore, called to defend, protect, and value all human life (Psalm 139).

These statements do not exhaust the extent of our beliefs. The Bible itself, as the inspired and infallible Word of God that speaks with final authority concerning truth, morality, and the proper conduct of mankind, is the sole and final source of all that we believe. For purposes of Wesleyan Education Center’s faith, doctrine, practice, policy, and discipline, Wesleyan’s school board and the Wesleyan Church are the school’s final interpretive authority on the Bible’s meaning and application.

For education to be meaningful, it must be based upon truth. Wesleyan Christian Academy believes that all truth is God’s Truth, and His Truth is revealed through the Bible, which is infallible and is the standard for living a successful life. Only by recognizing God as the Creator, Designer, and Organizer of the universe can a proper understanding and mastery of facts and knowledge be possible.

Wesleyan Christian Academy believes that Christian education is a process in which teaching and learning are accomplished through developmentally appropriate activities by Christian teachers who encourage a high standard of academic excellence. We believe God’s Word is the highest authority and strive to bring all knowledge into a living relationship with His Truth.

Wesleyan Christian Academy functions in a complementary role with the Christian home to provide within a traditional educational setting, opportunities that integrate and nurture each student’s academic, spiritual, social, physical, and emotional development.

Wesleyan Christian Academy desires to produce individuals who will be productive and contributing members both in society and within the body of Christ, emanating a Christian worldview.

I agree that, as part of the qualifications for this position, I am a “born-again” Christian who knows the Lord Jesus Christ as Savior (John 3:3, 1 Peter 1:23). I accept without verbal or mental reservations Wesleyan Christian Academy’s Doctrinal Statement, and am committed to upholding it. I also give testimony that teaching is a spiritual calling and that teaching in this Christian school is God’s direction for my life.

I agree to manifest by daily example the highest Christian virtue, serving as a Christian role model (1 Timothy 4:12) both in and out of school to pupils (Luke 6:40), parents, and fellow employees. I agree that instruction is not only through rational explanation of formal subject material but even more powerfully through word, deed, example, and shared experience. I agree to be a role model in judgment, dignity, respect, and Christian living. I agree to discontinue any action(s) or personal habit(s) identified by the Head of School or School Board if they feel that the discontinuance is in the best interest of the school. This includes refraining from all public use of alcohol or tobacco products. I agree that misconduct, as deemed by the Administration, on a case-by-case basis, injurious to the school’s reputation, either during or outside of school hours, may be cause for my immediate dismissal (Colossians 3:17, Titus 2:7-8, 1 Thessalonians 2:10, 1 Thessalonians 5:18, 22-23, and James 3:17-18).

I agree to accept the School Board’s interpretation of biblical standards for my sexual behavior; that any sexual misconduct – including, but not limited to – premarital, extramarital, or homosexual activity; sexual harassment; use or viewing of pornographic material or websites; and sexual abuse of children is forbidden and violates the employment requirement of being a Christian role model. I agree that such behaviors are grounds for immediate dismissal from my teaching position of ministering to children. I also agree that the unique roles of the male and female are clearly defined in Scripture and that Romans 1:24-32 condemns the homosexual lifestyle (Romans 12:1-2, 1 Corinthians 6:9-20, Ephesians 4:1-11, 5:3-5; 1 Thessalonians 4:3-8; 1 Timothy 4:12; 2 Timothy 2:19-22; 1 Peter 1:15-16, 2:15-17; 1 John 3:1-3).

1. We believe God wonderfully and immutably creates each person as male or female. These two distinct, complementary genders together reflect the image and nature of God (Genesis 1:26-27). Rejection of one’s biological sex is a rejection of the image of God within that person. We are a school that affirms a person’s biological sex and refrain from attempts to physically change, alter, or disagree with their biological sex (Genesis 1:26-28; Romans 1:26-32; 1 Corinthians 6:9-11).

2. We believe that the term “Marriage” has only one meaning: the uniting of one man and one woman in a single, exclusive union, as detailed in Scripture (Genesis 2:18-25). We believe God intends sexual intimacy to occur between a man and a woman who are married to each other (1 Corinthians 6:18, 7:2-5; Hebrews 13:4). We believe God has commanded that no intimate sexual activity be engaged in outside of a marriage between a man and a woman.

3. We believe any form of sexual immorality (including adultery, fornication, homosexual behavior, bisexual conduct, and use of pornography) is sinful and offensive to God (Matthew 15:18-20; 1 Corinthians 6:9-10). We are a school that affirms the sexual complementary role of a man and a woman and should, therefore, resist same-sex sexual attractions and same-sex sexual acts or conduct, which are inconsistent with Biblical teaching (Genesis 1:27; Genesis 2:24; Matthew 19:4-6; Mark 10:5-9; Romans 1:26-27; 1 Corinthians 6:9-11; Ephesians 5:25-33).

4. We believe to preserve the function and integrity of Wesleyan Education Center as the local Body of Christ and to provide a biblical role model to Wesleyan Christian Academy’s members and the community, it is imperative that all persons employed by Wesleyan Education Center in any capacity agree to and abide by this Position Statement on Marriage, Gender, and Sexuality (Matthew 5:16; Philippines 2:14-16; 1 Thessalonians 5:22).

5. We believe God offers redemption and restoration to all who confess and forsake their sin, seeking His mercy and forgiveness through Jesus Christ (Acts 3: 19-21; Romans 10:9-10; 1 Corinthians 6:9-11).

6. We believe every person must be afforded compassion, love, kindness, respect, and dignity (Mark 12:28-21; Luke 6:31). Hateful and harassing behavior or attitudes directed toward any individual are to be repudiated and are not in accord with Scripture nor the doctrines of Wesleyan Education Center.

All employees are expected to reflect a Christian testimony and be role models in and out of school. Wesleyan’s policies against discrimination or other harassment apply to internet communications. Therefore, any internet communications that adversely affect on the employees’ or the school’s Christian testimony, that contain confidential student or parent information, that contain confidential school information, that disparage the school or other employees or officers, or that violate the school’s anti-discrimination / anti-harassment policies may result in requests to remove the communications an in employee discipline, including termination. The school shall hold employees personally responsible for all material they post or blog on a website or for content posted by third parties to employees’ social networking sites.

With Galatians 3:28 as our premise – “There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus,” Wesleyan seeks to achieve a makeup of staff and students from a broad ethnic, racial, and socio-economic background that is reflective of the global community in which we live, minister, and work. Within our specifically designed framework, we welcome and acknowledge the many God-given talents of diverse learners while maintaining our commitment to high academic standards. Our intent is not to meet any “quotas” but to create an atmosphere where each child can understand, respect, and celebrate the differences God has created and ordained in His sovereign creation of mankind.
Within a biblical framework that focuses on the unity of believers in Jesus Christ, we want to expose our children to a multicultural environment where the truth of God’s word is proclaimed and lived out daily. We intentionally want every student, parent, and staff member to feel welcomed and appreciated for the way the Lord originally created their unique heritage.

Wesleyan Education Center does not discriminate against any applicant or staff member relative to race, color, sex, age, disability, national or ethnic origin.

Wesleyan Education Center has been classified as a 501 (c-3) non-profit church-related organization and has chosen not to participate in the Federal Unemployment Tax Act. Therefore, upon termination of employment, regardless of reason, unemployment benefits are not available.

I agree to attend faithfully and financially support a local church whose fundamental beliefs agree with the Doctrinal Statement of Wesleyan Christian Academy (Hebrews 10:25).
