Our
Philosophy
We believe that each child is “fearfully and wonderfully made” by God
(Ps. 139), and each has been made with a special purpose in life.
Master’s Academy seeks to build academic proficiency and to direct
students in the discovery of their specific learning styles, talents,
personality, and interests. We understand that the parents are the
primary teachers and influence in the life of a child Parents and
grandparents are welcome and encouraged to participate in school
functions and projects (Deut. 4:9; ll:19).
Further, we acknowledge that God has made children
as individuals; therefore, each student’s educational plan should be
individually designed with their personal needs addressed. A small
group setting is necessary to allow such a design. Our purpose is to
remain a small, individualized, traditional classroom program with
professional guidance and instruction.
 Moreover,
we recognize that there are many valuable teaching resources available
outside the classroom. It is imperative that these resources not be
wasted; instead, we should allow students to learn from them and receive
credit for the instruction. Individually designed plans allow controlled
outside instruction to benefit high school students towards graduation
requirements when appropriate.
Master’s Academy believes in ministering to the
total person. It is, therefore, crucial to provide a high quality
education, both spiritually and academically, to the students of the
Southwest Dallas area. The primary objective and purpose of the school
is to present a sound academic education, integrated with a Christian
view of God and the world. Children should be educated at home and at
school with the consciousness that all truth is God’s truth, including
history, geography, science, math and the arts, and that Jesus Christ is
central in all learning and living.
Master’s
Academy offers parents and students an alternative to the public
schools. The primary reason for our existence is to offer supportive
academic remediation with a Christian foundation. Character training
is an important element to the school’s program. We believe that the
heart of character training is obedience, respect, integrity, and
self-control. We seek to “obey, to do right, and to love God and
country.” (unknown).
