Statement of Faith
The following is a list of doctrines and beliefs held to and taught at Pike Christian Academy:
1. The Bible is the only infallible, authoritative Word of God, and contains all that is necessary for our salvation.
2. There is one God, eternally existent in three Persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
3. Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of God. He was conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He was truly human (but without sin) and truly God. He performed miracles and made an atonement for our sins through his substitutionary death on the cross. He rose from the dead and ascended to the Father and He will return in power and glory to judge the living and the dead.
4. Salvation is by grace alone through faith in Jesus Christ.
5. Faith without works is dead.
6. All human beings are sinners and must be born again through the grace of Jesus Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit.
7. The Holy Spirit indwells Christians to equip them to live a godly life and build up the body of Christ.
8. All believers are spiritually one in Christ.
The redeemed of the Lord will experience a bodily resurrection and eternal life through Jesus Christ.

Pike Christian Academy
Basic School Rules
The following list of school rules are those essential policies of which we require all our students to be aware and to which they are expected to adhere.
1. Students are expected to cooperate with basic Christian standards of
behavior, etiquette and conversation.
2. Teachers and staff are to be treated with respect. There should be no
talking back or arguing. Prompt and cheerful obedience is expected.
Requests from the teachers should not have to be repeated.
3. No chewing gum, video games, MP3 players, Ipods, giga pets,
guns or knives, or anything that is determined to be a distraction from
learning is allowed on school grounds. Please see our separate policy for
cell phones for 6th-12th grades. Cell phones are not allowed under 6th
grade.
4. Students are expected to treat all of the school’s materials and
facilities, as well as the belongings of others, with respect and care.
This includes all text books distributed to students. (Parents will
be charged for lost or damaged books).
Pike Christian Academy
Discipline Policy
The kind and amount of discipline will be determined by the teachers, and if necessary, the Administrator. The discipline will be administered in light of the student’s problem and attitude. All discipline will be based on Biblical principles (e.g. Restitution, apologies, swift/painful punishment, restoration of fellowship, no lingering attitudes, etc.) The majority of discipline problems are to be dealt with at the classroom level. In order to maintain consistency, teachers regularly meet together to discuss Biblical standards and school policy concerning discipline. Love and forgiveness will be an integral part of the discipline of a student.
I. Office visits: there are five basic behaviors that will automatically result in discipline from the Administrator (vs. the teacher). Those behaviors are as follows:
· Disrespect shown to any staff member or volunteer. The staff member will be the judge of whether disrespect has been shown.
· Dishonesty in any situation while at school, including lying, cheating and stealing.
· Rebellion, i.e. Outright disobedience in response to instructions.
· Fighting, i.e. Striking in anger with the intent to harm the other student(s).
· Obscene, vulgar or profane language, as well as taking the Lord’s name in vain.
During the first or second visit with the Administrator, the Administrator will determine the nature of the discipline. The Administrator may require restitution, janitorial work, parental attendance during the school day with the student, writing assignment, paddling, or another measures consistent with appropriate Biblical guidelines. If parents disagree with any of the above mentioned disciplines for their child, they must specify the objection to the Administrator during the application process.
If for any reason a student receives an official office visit (determined by the Administrator), the following accounting will be observed:
· The first time in any given school year a student is sent to the Administrator for discipline, the student’s parents will be contacted and given the details of the visit. The parents’ assistance and support in averting further problems will be sought.
· The second office visit in a given school year will be followed by a meeting with the student’s parents and the Administrator.
· Should a student require a third visit in a given school year, a two-day in-school suspension will be imposed on the student.
· If a fourth office visit is required in a given school year, the situation will be brought to the School Board to examine the possibility of expulsion.
II. Expulsion: The Pike Christian Academy School Board realizes that expelling a student from school is a very serious matter and should always be carefully dealt with on a case-by-case basis. Forgiveness and restitution are fundamental to our total discipline policy. However, should a student and his/her parents be unable to eliminate behavioral problems before a fourth office visit, expulsion may be the option.
III. Serious Misconduct: Should a student commit an act with such serious consequences that the Administrator deems it necessary, the office-visit process may be by-passed and suspension or expulsion imposed immediately. Examples of such serious misconduct could include: acts endangering the lives of other students or staff members, gross violence, vandalism to the school facilities, violations of civil law, or any act in clear contradiction of scriptural commands. Students may be subject to school discipline for serious misconduct which occurs after school hours.
IV. Re-admittance: Should the expelled student desire to be readmitted to Pike Christian Academy at a later date, the School Board, or its delegated committee, will make a decision based on the student’s attitude and circumstances at the time of reapplication.
Pike Christian Academy
Illness Policy
This policy shall be in effect for all students at Pike Christian Academy
(Preschool – Twelfth Grade). The purpose of this policy is to keep the transmission of illnesses among the children to an absolute minimum.
If your child has had vomiting, diarrhea, or fever of 100.0 or higher (that would be 99.0 under the arm) after 4:00 pm of the previous day, do not send them to school. If your child has gone to the doctor and has been prescribed an antibiotic, they may not return to school until they have been taking the antibiotic for at least 24 hours.
If your child has head lice, they may not return to school until all nits are removed from the hair, even if the child has been treated.
Please be informed that if your child becomes ill at school (vomits, develops a fever of 100.0 or higher, has diarrhea or head lice is found) you will be called and expected to pick up your child in a timely manner. We really do not have adequate space for taking care of a sick child and cannot leave the child in contact with the other children.
