FOUNDATIONAL EDUCATION ADMISSION POLICIES

To be admitted, the student and the student’s parent or guardian shall agree to adhere to the Christian-belief system, policies and regulations of H.C.S.; H.C.S. may admit students whose parent or guardian are non-Christians, provided the parent or guardian agrees to abide by and not hinder the educational systems, policies and regulations of H.C.S. in so far as the admission, education and growth of the student is concerned. H.C.S.’s biblical role is to work in conjunction with students’ homes to mold students to be Christ-like in accordance with the Gospel. Therefore, it is the desire of H.C.S. that every student have a personal relationship with Christ and that the Gospel be a natural part of the relationship building process. To facilitate this ministerial desire, each teacher is expected to provide a clear presentation of the Gospel to each assigned student during the course of the school year and to understand the status and progress of each assigned student’s relationship to and with Christ.

The atmosphere or conduct within a particular student’s home may be in opposition to the biblical lifestyle professed by H.C.S. This includes, but is not limited to, sexual immorality, homosexual sexual orientation, or the inability to support moral principles of H.C.S. In such cases, H.C.S. reserves the right, within its sole discretion, to refuse admission of an applicant, to discontinue enrollment of a student, or to institute other action deemed advisable to serve and protect the best interests and ministry of H.C.S. As a ministry for students of many different ages with varying education levels, these Admission Policies of H.C.S. do not substitute or replace any age, application, or testing requirement or other admissions policy or regulation of or performed by H.C.S., but are instead designed to provide a statement of the foundational education and religious belief systems of H.C.S. All board members are expected to review and understand all of H.C.S.’s policies relating to the student admissions process.
