WHO WE ARE

FROM THE HEAD OF SCHOOL

Welcome to ECS!

As an academic institution, our mission is to provide an excellent education for our youngest Little Eagles students through our college-bound seniors. Our 21st century academic approach inspires students to become owners in their learning through expert instruction, vigorous class discussion, group collaboration, technology integration, and expeditionary learning opportunities. Our students take advantage of the many academic offerings at ECS from AP and honors classes to the wide array of electives to deliver a well-rounded academic experience.

While academics is our core, and college preparation is a given, what sets us apart at ECS is our commitment to partner with parents in the Christian discipleship of their children. We know that raising the next generation is more than just imparting facts for college entrance exams. Our teachers and coaches understand their role as a calling and take advantage of our unique ability to share the gospel with our students. To help accomplish this, we have carved out intentional time within our student-friendly schedule to disciple our students in relevant, age-appropriate ways that appeal to the needs of Early Childhood to Upper School students.

Learn more about what an ECS education can offer not only your child but you as a parent as we commit to partner with you in the growth of your child – academically, athletically, creatively, socially and spiritually – like no other school in the area.

Please check out our website, and catch a glimpse of what we’re all about. But if you really want to know the ECS difference, I personally invite you to visit our campus and see for yourself why it’s a great day to be an Eagle!

Looking forward to meeting you,

Braxton Brady
Head of School

Beliefs

THE BASIS OF EVANGELICAL CHRISTIAN SCHOOL is the whole counsel of the infallible Word of God as contained in the Scriptures of the Old and New Testament, as widely held and interpreted in the major evangelical confessions, doctrinal statements and documents. In accordance with these confessions, we hold unreservedly to the sovereignty of God, revealed in the Lordship of Jesus Christ, over the world and thus over every department of human activity, and submit unconditionally to the authority of Holy Scriptures, thereby recognizing these scriptures as the supreme and final standard for Christian education and all matters of faith and life. On this basis we subscribe to the following articles of belief:

Articles of Belief

We believe in the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments as verbally inspired by God, and inerrant in the original writings, and that they are supreme and final authority in faith and life;
We believe in one God, eternally existing in three Persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit:
We believe that Jesus Christ was begotten by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, and is true God and true man;
We believe that man was created by an immediate and direct act of God, in the image of God, that he sinned, and thereby incurred not only physical death, but also that spiritual death which is separation from God; and that all human beings are born of a sinful nature, and are sinners in thought, word and deed;
We believe that the Lord Jesus died for our sins, according to the Scriptures, as a representative and substitutionary sacrifice; and that all who believe in Him are justified on the ground of His shed blood;
We believe that all who receive by faith the Lord Jesus Christ are born again of the Holy Spirit, and thereby become children of God;
We believe that the whole counsel of God as found in the Old and New Testaments of Scripture provides the framework of God’s intent for relationships. We believe God creates each person at conception with an immutable biological sex or gender — male or female — that reflects the image and likeness of God. In that full context, human sexuality is a gift from God to be celebrated and culminated only within marital parameters exclusively between a male and a female made in His image;
We believe in the resurrection of the crucified body of our Lord, in His ascension into heaven, His present life there for us as High Priest and Advocate, and that He will personally return and set up His Kingdom wherein He will rule and reign in righteousness;
We believe in the bodily resurrection of the just and the unjust, the eternal blessedness of the saved, and the eternal retribution of the lost.
We, therefore, believe in:
- The Deity, Virgin Birth, Vicarious Death, Physical Resurrection, Ascension, and personal return in Glory of the Lord Jesus.
- The Personality, Deity and Work of the Holy Spirit.
- The Personality, work and limited role of Satan.
- The Great Scriptural Doctrines of Sin, Salvation by Grace, Redemption, Regeneration, Justification by Faith, Prayer, Physical Resurrection, the Reward of Believers and Retribution of Unbelievers.
- God’s design of humans as uniquely male and female with distinct roles and purposes, with equal dignity and worth to both.
