PARENT/SCHOOL COVENANT
To establish and maintain a harmonious Christian environment at Dunwoody Christian School, at least one parent living with a prospective student must consent, in writing, to this covenant:
Dunwoody Christian School will:
- Fulfill its mission by providing a quality education from a Biblical perspective.
- Provide a safe, nurturing environment for all students.
- Know your child on a personal level and be available to discuss his/her academic progress.
- Regularly communicate information about the school and its events.
- Support your family in prayer.
Parents agree to:
- I agree to continue the spiritual training of my child(ren) at home and to attend a Bible-believing church service regularly.
- I agree with the Dunwoody Christian School Statement of Faith.
- I have reviewed and am in agreement with the policies set forth in the DCS Parent/Student Handbook.
- I agree to be involved at a grade appropriate level with my child(ren)’s education at home, realizing my child's education is ultimately my responsibility (Ephesians 6:1-4).
- I will regularly access the parent web portal for important communications including the school calendar, homework assignments, announcements, etc.
- I will support DCS through prayer and a positive, constructive attitude. If I develop a complaint or concern about the school or its programs, I will utilize the guidelines found in Matthew 18:15, and the Conflict Resolution Procedures in the Parent/Student Handbook. I will address complaints and concerns with the person most directly involved, and will not communicate these complaints or concerns through any form of gossip, including social media.
- I will make a concerted effort to attend school activities that my child(ren) are involved in (e.g., programs, athletic competitions, etc.) as well as requested parent/teacher conferences and school-wide meetings.
- I commit to paying all DCS financial obligations in a timely manner.
- I understand that DCS does not tolerate obscenity, profanity, defamation of God’s Word, disrespect toward staff members or students, or repeated disregard of school policies from students or parents.
- If in the future I no longer agree with any of the above commitments, I agree to promptly communicate in writing to the DCS Headmaster my specific disagreements. I understand that disagreements with any of the above commitments may require me to withdraw my student from DCS.
- I understand and accept that if, in the judgment of the Head of School, my family is in violation of any part of this covenant, my child/children may be expelled from Dunwoody Christian School.
