About EXCEL

Statement of Faith

EXCEL: Excellence in Home Education conforms to the following statement of faith:

  • The Bible is the inerrant, infallible, inspired word of God from beginning to end.
  • God exists in three Persons:God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. All Persons are equal in power and glory.
  • Christ is fully God and fully man.
  • Christ was born of a virgin, was sinless in His life, died on the cross as substitute for all men, rose bodily from the grave, and now reigns with the Father. He will return visibly and personally to earth both in salvation and in judgment.
  • All humans are sinful by nature and can only be forgiven and saved by repentance and the expression of trust in Jesus as Savior, brought about by the regenerating work of the Holy Spirit.
  • The work of the Holy Spirit continues and indwells the Christian at the point of salvation and enables him or her to live a godly life.

Statement of Purpose

EXCEL: Excellence in Home Education is a service organization that coordinates facilities, teachers, students, and parents for the purpose of offering an enhancement to, not a replacement of, home education for students in the junior high and high school years. EXCEL does not offer a complete curriculum for either high school or junior high school. Classes offered on the high school level are college preparatory, taught by experienced teachers, the majority of whom are degreed in their areas of expertise. EXCEL adheres to a statement of faith reflecting basic Christian beliefs, with which our teachers and leadership must be in agreement.

 

The mission of EXCEL: Excellence in Home Education is to offer weekly classes to home educated students as an extension of the homeschool, with parents as active participants in the overall discipline and learning process. Classes reflect traditional teaching methods and a biblical worldview in content. Our goal is to help parents develop students who are self-governed by Jesus Christ under the authority of their parents.
