High School: Curriculum Considerations
Non-Biblical World View Testbooks
A note about Science, Social Studies, and/or History textbooks published for the Public School System, including those used by the Florida Virtual School and state colleges for Dual Enrollment courses:
One of the foundational tenets of Families of Faith Christian Academy International is a world view that acknowledges the existence of God and His working among men. History, as a record of events, has been supplanted with "Social Studies," a study of culture as a means of promoting a humanistic, secular, or progressive world view.
Most secular textbooks provide a world view that does not just ignore the existence of God, but actually promotes a systematic attack on God’s existence.
Francis A. Schaeffer described the danger of this assault on our children.
"If you hold this world view, you must realize there is no source of knowledge except what man can find for himself; all revelation is ruled out. Knowledge never can be certain, and there can be no value system except that which is totally arbitrary. And more serious than the personal arbitrary value systems is the fact that it leaves us only with arbitrary law. There is no basis for law. Law becomes only the decision of a small group of people, and what they decide at a given moment is for the good of society."
Sounds like Schaeffer knew that mob rule would dominate the news the summer of 2020!
Families of Faith Christian Academy International's approved course list does not list any of the Science, Social Studies and/or History textbooks developed for public schools. Their use, including courses taught through the Florida Virtual School, will not be approved for our enrolled students.
