Educating Youth in America’s Founding Principles

Are you concerned about the direction of our Country? Do you fear that our founding principles and freedoms are going to be lost if the education system continues the divisive course ushered in by those outside of the system? Are we teaching the differences between Karl Marx’s Communist Manifesto and the United States’ Constitution? Is the education system instilling a love of Country and pride for the freedoms God has blessed us with, or are students being taught to become activists against our Founding documents?

The United States’ education system is at a breaking point. Students are continually being taught socialism and even communism are government systems based on equality. Many teachers fail to mention the horrors of Communist rule by Stalin, Lenin, Hitler, Castro, Mao, and more. Unfortunately, too many teachers associate as socialists’ activists and bring that ideology into the classroom. Marx believed that socialism was but a precursor to communism.

At Dayspring we adamantly oppose the idea that America’s founding principles are inherently flawed. It is these principles that provided President Lincoln the ability to fight slavery’s inhumane injustices. It is these principles that allowed Congress to pass the Civil Rights Act and Voting Rights Act in the 1960s. It is these principles that have since allowed men and women of all color to achieve the American dream – to find their passion and pursue their own happiness. With God’s divine intervention, the Founders wrote documents that have protected freedom for the people and guided us in difficult times. The United States’ history is not perfect. There have been challenges and grievous attacks on mankind.

What makes the United States different from so many other places to live? The founding documents have provided a way to correct these injustices. We at Dayspring believe in the United States’s Constitution and Bill of Rights. We believe understanding these documents juxtaposed with socialism and communism is fundamental in securing these rights for future generations. Our goal is to provide in-depth studies into our founding documents where students walk away appreciating the freedoms we are blessed with while also realizing how easily these freedoms can disappear. It is our job as educators to ensure that future generations understand why our governing documents are timeless and critical to maintain freedom. A Dayspring education respects and upholds America’s founding documents.

Investing in Your Child’s Education

At Dayspring, we understand that paying private school tuition can be challenging financially for families. However, so many believe that this challenge is certainly worth the effort. And we agree, but we also know it is imperative that those who wish for their children to be at a private school have that opportunity. Therefore, we have many fundraising organizations that work tirelessly to keep our tuition as low as possible while offering an education second to none.

Oftentimes families don’t believe they can afford a private school. But at Dayspring, tuition is approximately $450 per month – that’s a car payment! Truly – it is about financial prioritization. So, what is the benefit of a private school, specifically at Dayspring Academy? Why should you prioritize elementary, middle, and high school education over a Disney vacation, a new car, or that new kitchen you’ve been dreaming of?

A child’s education will follow him or her forever. It is often at school that a child creates habits exhibited in college and the workforce. Responsibility, organization, knowledge, collaboration, and communication are a few skills that are taught and practiced at DSA. Most importantly, DSA students focus on Godly characteristics and Christian attributes such as respect, care for one’s neighbor, faith in God, devotion to prayer, and daily Scripture analysis in Bible class. These are critical components of a youth’s education and spiritual development.

Horace Mann, founder of the common school movement, believed that school systems should reinforce Biblical moral teachings. Today’s society encourages students to explore all lifestyles and engage in conversations that emphasize this world’s standards over Christian morals. At Dayspring we find it critical to focus on being more like our Savior. This is the very reason DSA exists – to provide a wholesome Christian environment where students can grow academically while still nurturing a Godly way of life. Life is but a vapor – we must use every breath for Him. You will find DSA faculty prayerfully work with each student to make the most of every opportunity God has provided us with in this life.

Invest not only in an education that sets your child or youth on a successful path, but invest in an education where spiritual growth and devotion to God is front and center.
