Aiken Christian School Student Code of Conduct The purpose of the Code of conduct is to create a God-honoring Christian environment that promotes four ACS imperatives: PURSUIT OF HOLINESS - the pursuit of personal holiness - "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength." Mark 12:30 "But just as the one who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do; for it is written: Be holy, because I am holy." 1 Peter 1:15-16 "Now flee from youthful lusts, and pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace, with those who call on the Lord from a pure heart." 2 Timothy 2:22 RESPECT BACK TO TOP - the mutual respect and concern among faculty, students, and parents "Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor one another above yourselves." Romans 12:10 - safety and well-being of faculty and students "Love does no harm to its neighbor." Romans 13:10 ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE BACK TO TOP - learning and academic achievement "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline." Proverbs 1:7 DISCIPLINE BACK TO TOP - self-respect, self-discipline, and taking responsibility for your own actions "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law." Galatians 5:22-23 |
