    The primary mission of Cornerstone Christian School is to partner with Christian parents to develop well-educated, spiritually mature persons, dedicated to Christ, equipped to contribute to His church, society, and their own well-being.

    2. To teach the Bible as God's inspired work emphasizing its application to every area of life.

    3. To inculcate students with a desire to know and obey the will of God as revealed in the Scriptures.

    4. To lead students to confess Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord, and then on to responsible Christian maturity.

    5. To impart an understanding of the Christian's role in the church and its worldwide mission of witnessing, evangelism and discipleship, and to stimulate interest and involvement in this mission.

    6. To encourage, support and give guidance to the Christian home, to aid families in Christian growth, to cooperate with parents in every phase of developing their childen, and to encourage parents to understand and bear their responsibility of educating and training their children.

    7. To promote high academic standards and help students realize their full potential.

    8. To help students gain a thorough comprehension and command of the fundamentals of interpersonal communication with an emphasis on reading, writing, speaking, listening, and arithmetic.

    9. To teach and encourage good study habits; to teach students to work independently and cooperatively, reason logically, apply themselves and fulfill their responsibilities.
