PURPOSE OF KEY LEARNINGS
The goal of Adventist education is to prepare young people to become Christian leaders in their communities and to prepare them for Heaven. In Education, page 21, Ellen G. White states, “True teachers aim to inspire…teachers are not satisfied with second-rate work. They are not satisfied with directing their students to a standard lower than it is possible for them to reach.” Our Adventist educational goal has remained constant: Show children the love of Christ and teach to a higher standard!
Key Learnings are written in a succinct and friendly format for educators, students and parents. The Key Learnings provide an overview of the content that students should know and be able to do in each subject area and grade. They were aligned with the North American Division curriculum guides, national standards, McRel Database (Mid-Continental Regional Educational Laboratory) and Ten Sigma (a compilation of standards for 38 states)
