Overview

1. Agape Christian Academy expects students to live by Biblical standards. God's Word tells us to be wise (Eph 5:15) and to conduct ourselves with wisdom, especially toward outsiders (Col 4:5). As ambassadors for Christ (2Cor 5:20), our behavior needs to reflect Christ both on and off campus.
   
   
2. Students and the Administration should respect all school property as stewards of God's creation. Students are to respect school authority (Rom 13:1-2) and are expected to show respect toward administration, faculty, staff, and fellow students. They should set the example in speech, conduct, love, faith, and purity (1Tim 4:12), reflecting wisdom from above and personal holiness (James 3:17-18).
   
   
3. ACA encourages students to initiate personal confession and to seek forgiveness and repentance whenever this code is violated. When a student and/or parent comes forward for help, the administration will extend appropriate grace and support (Gal 6:1-2, 2Cor 1:12).
   
   
4. Unity among believers is vital for making Christ known to the unsaved world (John 17:21-23). We are committed to our relationship with Jesus Christ first, followed by our relationships with one another. This ACA Code of Conduct aims to foster such unity within the school.
