Our Mission

The purpose of Oasis Performing Arts School is to provide a sound academic education integrated with the Christian view of God and the world based on the authoritative and inerrent Word of God. This educational program is designed for children whose parents are committed to a personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. The Bible is specific in stating the principles that underly Christian education. The apostle Paul presented a comprehensive principle when he wrote of Christ, "For by Him were created that are in heaven and that are on earth... And He is before all things, and by Him all things consist" (Colossians 1:16,17). The Gospel of John states, "All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made" (John 1:3).

Philosophy of Education

The philosophy of Oasis Performing Arts School is based on a God-centered view that all truth is God’s truth, and that the Bible is the inspired and the only infallible, authoritative Word of God that contains this truth. God created all things and sustains all things. Therefore, the universe and humanity are dynamically related to God and have the purpose of glorifying Him. Because humans are sinners by nature and choice, they cannot glorify or know God. A person can do this only by choosing God’s free gift of salvation through His Son, thereby committing his or her life to the Lordship of Jesus Christ.

Our aim socially is to provide a Christian perspective on life and the world from which will come balanced personality and a proper understanding and acceptance of one’s role in life at home, at work, at play, and at worship – all grounded in the Christian concept of love.

This philosophy channels our energies to promoting high academic standards while helping students to achieve skills in creative and critical thinking, using the best integrated curriculum materials available. The objective of our instructional program is to enable students to pursue the postsecondary education of their choosing, whether in college, university, or vocational training.

Our responsibility for the student encompasses the spiritual, intellectual, physical, social, and emotional areas. These are inseparable, and through them all runs the thread of the spiritual. Therefore, it must be our aim to shun the tendency to teach the Bible compartmentally or on the intellectual level alone – the spiritual thread must be woven throughout the total curriculum.

It is apparent, then, that the types of activities we employ or permit in the classroom or school program will either facilitate, or militate against, our basic philosophy. The spiritual must permeate all areas – or else we become textbook oriented rather than student centered.

This philosophy dictates that we cooperate closely with parents in every phase of the student’s development, always offering assistance in understanding the purposes of the Christian school.
