Our Philosophy
Maranatha Christian Academy approaches education from within the framework of Christian faith, which provides a coherent perspective on life and the world. Our foundation is anchored firmly in Jesus Christ, and our Christian worldview will not be compromised at Maranatha Christian Academy.
We have five key Spiritual Formation Goals, which are permeated throughout the educational experience and curriculum:
- The student approaches life and decision-making from the perspective of a biblical worldview.
- The student can defend their faith.
- The student has a well-rounded knowledge of Scripture.
- The student volunteers their time to benefit others.
- The student can engage in personal evangelism.
We believe God, as manifested in Jesus Christ, has revealed to His people principals of education, and we commit ourselves to the following education principals.
From the Head of School
Welcome to Maranatha!
One incredibly special thing about Maranatha, is that when you enroll at MCA, you join a family that cares about you, your children, and their future. Like a plant's roots that hold it steady, our spiritual roots give us a solid foundation, knowing that our identity is grounded in biblical truth. The strength, stability, and fruit that comes from leaning on God as our firm foundation will be a catapult for your kids now and in their future successes.
Maranatha students are some of the brightest, most intelligent, articulate, and gifted students who have a strong moral compass—God has big plans for them. We are thrilled that you have chosen Maranatha to assist you in developing and preparing your child. A major part of this responsibility is helping your children to know who they are in Christ and to find their identities not in the things of this world, but in Him.
I look forward to working together as we develop co-creators of tomorrow.
Serving Him together,
Deb Larson
Head of School
