Internet Safety Policy
As an organization aiming to honor Christ by following the moral standards described in the Bible, we take seriously our responsibility to protect our students and faculty from material encouraging sexual sin and from those who would intentionally harm them, to hold them accountable to those moral standards presented in the Bible, and to train them on biblical and organizational expectations for their behavior. Legacy Academy’s expectations are laid out in the “Teacher’s Code of Ethical Behavior” and the “Student Handbook.”
As such, Legacy Academy has updated its Internet Safety Policy which can be read here.
Thankfulness
Philippians 4:6
"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God."
Thankfulness is an incredibly powerful weapon that we have been given in our spiritual journey. The Apostle Paul commands us in all situations to be thankful, and he tells us that that is one way to overcome anxiety -- or discouragement, frustration, etc.
For example, when a circumstance does not turn out as you expect it, it is hard to stay mad at another when you are listing reasons why you are thankful for that person. The same is true with God, and we also have a multitude of reasons to be thankful, not least the very fact of Him dying for our sins.
We are so thankful for all that God has done in the journey of the school and in the hearts of individual students, and we will not forget that nor the blessings He has given us in our daily lives. The Lord is good, and may we always be thankful.
