Mission Statement

East Lake United Methodist Church Academy was formed to enable parents to take responsibility for their children's academic, emotional and moral growth through teaching at home. We believe in the family and in its ability as an institution to instruct children in the most positive and loving environment possible.

Our purpose is to help you as parents by supporting you in this endeavor. Obviously we are not able to teach your child for you. On the contrary, we believe that you are the teachers. However even the best teachers need support, and guidance. We will strive to help you by offering informative faculty meetings, as well as social and educational events for the children. We will maintain a permanent record for each child enrolled as well.

East Lake United Methodist Church Academy was formed to allow people the opportunity to instruct their own children in the religious belief system that is personal to their own family. We therefore require no statement of faith, but rather trust that those families who take the responsibility of educating their own children will seek to educate those children in their religious Faith as well.

We will strive for educational excellence of the child and of the parents. We are never to old to learn and that is one beauty of homeschooling your child; you will grow as a teacher as your child is growing. We hope that as a member of our faculty, you as parents will continue to be open to new ways of growing and learning.
