Twin Falls Christian Academy was first founded and opened its doors in the fall of 1975. Today, our accommodations include a multi-purpose building with an auditorium and stage, a gym, classrooms for Senior High, music rooms, a large playground, library, and several elementary classrooms.

Twin Falls Christian Academy, a ministry of Grace Baptist Church, is a clean, modern facility with a well-trained Christian staff, dedicated to the worship of our Lord Jesus Christ and the training of young Christians. Ours is a traditional type of school which emphasizes sound Biblical discipline, character training, and high standards in academics.

PURPOSE

Our school board, administration, and teachers are dedicated to the purpose of providing the highest possible educational standards with the following three-fold emphasis:

1. To train your child to love and respect the Word of God. Because we believe the Bible to be the foundation stone of truth, every child will be taught a Bible course daily by born- again Christian teachers. The philosophy of life as taught by the Word of God will permeate all aspects of the child’s learning and daily school activity.
2. To instill into your child standards for living which are noble and pure and include, among other things: a respect for the rights and property of others, love of country, obedience to law, self-discipline, and the importance of the individual.
3. To give your child the finest in academic training. The growth of the intellect is a part of education just as is the development of character and soul.

Twin Falls Christian Academy is primarily for those people who are interested in training up their children in the way they should go, according to Proverbs 22:6. It should also be the desire of each student to be trained in the same manner (II Tim. 2:15). An important aspect of this training is the teaching of Biblical standards of separation, discipline, behavior, and morality.

It is an important part of education at Twin Falls Christian Academy to teach our young people to live lives that will glorify God according to I Cor.10:31. As Christians progress in their growth, it is vital that their natural self-centered motivations be changed to Christ-centered motivations (Phil. 2: 1-5). Christians need to avoid practices which would bring any reproach upon their Savior’s name (II Cor. 5:20). It is necessary that Christians avoid practices that would be detrimental to their personal spiritual growth and development (II Tim. 2:22). It is also necessary that Christians be especially aware of their influence on others, and refrain from any practice that would be harmful to the physical, mental, emotional, social, spiritual, and future well-being of another (I Cor. 8:10; Matt. 18:6; Rom. 13:8-10).

The Bible teaches that it is important that all Christians learn to live God-honoring lives (Matt.5:16) and to be willing to lay their lives down for their friends (John 15:13). Since this is a part of our teaching endeavor (Col. 1:28), we will expect our students to observe the following code:

1. Respect and support the purposes, standards, beliefs, and spirit of Twin Falls Christian Academy (James 3:16; Matt. 12:25).
2. Refrain from the use of tobacco, alcohol, drugs, and chemicals or any similar devices that would be harmful to your health and Christian testimony. (I Cor. 6:19,20).
3. Be supportive of our position and teaching against the harmful effects and influences of rock music, pornography, obscene literature, and commercial movies including television (Psalms 101:3, Psalms 1:1)
4. Maintain Christian standards in your personal appearance, use of language, relationships at home, compliance to civil law, personal and social morality and attendance at church (Eph. 5:1-21; Phil. 4:8)

Students are expected to abide by these standards throughout their enrollment. We believe that within this atmosphere of definite and positive Christian standards, good scholastic planning, and personal interest between faculty, students and parents, we have a fine opportunity for the development of strong Christian character (Eph. 4:14).
