Core Values and Goals

ECA offers a challenging, college-preparatory curriculum in an American-based system. Students at ECA study Bible each year,

and a Christian worldview is integrated into every aspect of the curriculum.

ECA has four core values, which are the foundation for all our interactions, classes, and extra-curricular activities.

Christ-centered

We desire to reflect Christ in our everyday lives, in our classrooms, and in our instruction.

Biblically based

From classes to courses to chapel, our foundation and truth are centered in the Bible, God’s Word.

Academically excellent

As an educational institution, we are committed to preparing students for life and further endeavors by providing well rounded course offerings taught by qualified teachers who instill a love for learning.

Service-driven

As part of our service to God, we want to serve others in our school, in our community, and in the whole world.
