VHE Statement of Philosophy(Click here for printer-friendly form of this page)
We believe:
-
That children belong to God, not to the state.
-
That the responsibility for the training of a child is entrusted,
Biblically, to his parents.
-
That God is the source of all truth: that a child is to be taught
God's Word as an integral part of his training.
-
That the documents under which our country and state were established
and by which we are covenanted together to be governed -- the Declaration
of Independence, the Constitution of the United States, the VA
Constitution, and the VA Declaration of Religious Freedoms -- were framed
according to Biblical tenets of civil government and liberty, and that
through these documents parents are guaranteed to execute the right to
execute their responsibility for the education of their children.
-
That we, as citizens of this country, state, and community have the
privilege to be involved in the political process by which laws are
created and amended and public resources are expended.
This is the VHE Statement of Philosophy as stated in
the original Constitution for VHE, Article III.
