1. Pre-amble: World Views in publicly funded schools is Ontario
   1. Evolutionary worldview – there is no God
   2. Humanistic philosophy – humans become the decider of truth
   3. Progressive education – the underlying philosophy of publicly funded schools and many other private schools, is rooted in the principles of humanistic philosophy
2. Christian education in Ontario is separated into 2 kinds:
   1. Christian schools that use secular/government curriculum with Christian enhancement and modification
   2. Christian schools that use Christian curriculum (RHCA is an example of this)
3. RHCA is Christian first and school second – the Bible, the Word of God, is foundational to the existence of RHCA.
   1. People of other faith are welcomed with the understanding and declaration by parents/guardians that they are aware of and will co-operate with school philosophy and policies
4. Abeka curriculum in all grades
   1. Exception in Canadian history, music, French, gym and computer
   2. Used by more than a million students in Christian schools around the world
   3. Largest publisher of Christian curriculum in the world
5. Curriculum is Biblically based in its philosophy, materials and contents, and methodology
   1. Tried and true and successful Christian curriculum since 1972 with real-world results
   2. Designed to educate and train the whole person
   3. It is considered by many to be academically advanced but is designed for the average student who is willing to work hard supported by dedicated teachers and appreciative parents/guardians
6. Our teachers
   1. All of our teachers are born-again followers of Christ. Many are actively involved with their local churches.
   2. All of our teachers have university degrees or its equivalency. New teachers or teachers changing grades are sent during the summer to Pensacola for training in the A Beka curriculum. We also conduct in-house training every year prior to the opening of school.
   3. All of our teachers follow a very detailed curriculum guide laid out for their particular grade level in every subject from day to day. In this way, they are not dependent upon themselves to write the curriculum, devise the daily lessons, compose the tests, or inquire as to what may have been covered the previous year. The wisdom and experience of master teachers who have developed this wonderful Christian curriculum since 1972 is ours to follow.
   4. As the philosophy and methodology of the A Beka curriculum are different from and often in opposition to those of the public schools, we do not require that our teachers be “certified” by the teacher union. Nor does the Ministry of Education, which has inspected us, require this.
   5. Our teachers are very dedicated and hard-working, and regard their work as a ministry, not just a job. Be assured they will be regularly praying for your child, as well as looking after his/her best interests holistically.
7. Canadian Achievement Test version 4 (CAT-4) results
   1. Every RHCA student from Grades 1 to High School participates
   2. We have been doing it since 2002
   3. The average RHCA student is 2 grades above the Canadian national norm
8. The average child taught in an excellent learning environment backed by a solid Christian curriculum and dedicated teachers will produce, what many today will consider, outstanding results.
9. God’s work (Christian education) done God’s way (Christian curriculum and teachers) will never lack God’s supply (blessings and CAT-4 results).
