Parent Covenant


At least one parent of each student must agree with the CCS Statement of Faith and Parent Covenant.  These documents are designed to create a likeminded community who share similar goals for the development their children.

Parent Covenant
The School Board and Administration of Crossings Christian School encourage CCS parents to join together, pledging to uphold this covenant in order to glorify God through families, teachers, and students that embody His grace. At least one parent must pledge support of this covenant.

CCS has a specific spiritual purpose based upon biblical guidelines (Deuteronomy 6:1-9, Ephesians 6:1-4). CCS seeks to be discerning in the area of Christian belief and practice. The School Board and administration are not concerned with denominational preference or affiliation, but are concerned with the personal profession and practice of biblical Christian faith among those who make up the school family. Therefore, it is required that at least one parent be consistently involved in a Bible believing church. CCS defines a Christian as a person who by faith has received Jesus Christ as personal Savior and rightful Lord (Ephesians 2:8-9, Romans 10:9-10). It is required that at least one parent be in agreement with our Statement of Faith and Parent Covenant.

I/we as parent/parents have accepted Jesus Christ as our personal Lord and Savior.

I/we as parent/parents understand, agree, and will commit to the following statement of support:

  1. To guide our children through a biblical worldview, recognizing CCS as a supportive partner. (Deut. 6:5-7; Col. 2:8; Matt. 22:37)
  2. To pray earnestly for CCS, its families, faculty, staff, and administration. (James 5:16)
  3. To serve the school in whatever capacity my time, talents, and gifts will allow, as a result of my growing personal faith in Jesus Christ. (Mark 10:43-45)
  4. To live our calling to a higher standard of conduct as evidenced in our thoughts, our words, and our behavior both in school and to the outside community, because as a Christian community CCS bears witness to the character of the Lord Jesus Christ. (Eph. 4:1) As Christ followers, we do not engage in a lifestyle of adultery, homosexual activity, alcohol abuse, the illegal use/sale of drugs or any other illegal act.
  5. To preserve unity in the body, by seeking to resolve any conflict within the CCS community by addressing the matter appropriately with the person or persons directly involved. (Matt. 18:15-17)
  6. To look for the good in our children’s behavior and to praise them and their parents for demonstrating Christlike character. (1 Cor. 13:4-7)
  7. To communicate lovingly to other parents when we have valid concerns about their child’s behavior, so that each of us as parents may guide our child to grow in Christ-like character. (Col. 3:12-17)
  8. To attend school-related meetings designed to foster a community of CCS parents who are more equipped to work with the school and one another, to educate our children, and to be more unified in our ability to encourage one another in this high calling. (Heb. 10:25)

Statement of Faith
In addition, I/we as parent/parents have read and agree with the following Crossings Christian School statement of faith:

  • The Bible is the perfect, inerrant, and inspired Word of God.
  • God exists eternally in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
  • Jesus Christ is God’s eternal Son. Born of a virgin, He took the form of man; through His sinless life He taught men how to live. He was crucified as a sacrifice for our sins. He rose from the dead, according to the scriptures, and returned to heaven to prepare a place for us. He will come again to receive believers into the presence of God.
  • Men and women were created in God’s image, were tempted by Satan and rebelled against God. Through repentance and personal faith in Christ, we are forgiven of our sins, reborn in a new relationship with God and placed into the body of Christ.
