“Rowing, not Drifting”: Northwest Christian School’s commitment to continuous improvement
Stewardship
One of the most important things that we teach our students is that they are uniquely created by God–they are not chemical, biological accidents. And in their creation, their Creator crafted them with skills, talents, and intellect that he intends to use for His purposes. It is so crucial that they truly understand this and resulting reality of their lives. The types of books they enjoy reading, the hobbies that they have, the teams they participate in, their favorite classes, the things that they love to talk about–these are passions and interests that God gave them. Their job as students, and our job as a school, is to grow these abilities and teach them how they can be used for Kingdom purposes. As a school, we need to model that belief within our stewardship. This means that the resources that God gives us–whether these are financial, facilities, or even human resources– need to be carefully cultivated and grown. The third pillar of mission fulfillment is “Stewardship” and in this section of the “Rowing not Drifting” presentation, you’ll learn about Northwest Christian School’s performance as a steward of the resources that God has provided that that you as a family have given.
