City of Faith Christian School is a ministry of the City of Faith Church of God.
This wing of ministry began in July 1996. This school is licensed PreK - 5th grade by New York Department of Health and New York State Department of Education. We currently enroll students from PreK - 4th grade. Hours of operation are from 7:30 AM to 6:00 PM Monday to Friday. We also operate a six week summer session.
SCHOOL PHILOSOPHY
The educational philosophy of City of Faith Christian School is based on a God centered view that all truth is God's truth and that the Bible is the inspired and only infallible authoritative word, which contains his truth. God created all things and sustains all things; therefore the universe and man are dynamically related to God and have the purpose of glorifying him.
Because man is a sinner by nature and choice, he cannot glorify or know God by himself. He can only do this by choosing God's free gift of salvation through his son Jesus Christ, thereby committing his life to the lordship of Jesus Christ.
EDUCATIONAL PEDAGOGY
Here at the City a Faith Christian School, we believe that students learn best when trust is fostered between the teacher and the students coupled with understanding of their individual learning style and motivation. For this reason we structure our program by providing open-ended problems that require and cultivate concept building and self-directness.
All students are given equal opportunity to learn and grow. Attention is given to strategies that will accommodate each student's learning style and multiple intelligence. A rich variety of manipulative and informational resources are made available to our students so they can explore and construct their own knowledge.
The supportive environment here at the academy encourages our students to feel loved and accepted. Discipline is a teaching process. Its goal is to help the students develop the relevant knowledge, wisdom, and strength to make appropriate choices. An effective partnership is forged between the school, parents and other professionals in the field to facilitate a smooth flow of information and remain abreast with current trends in education.
