A Word to Parents

“Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it.” Proverbs 22:6

 The Board, Administration, Faculty and Staff of Richmond Academy suggest to each parent the following:

To assume your responsibility of being the primary educator in fulfillment of your God-given role. Deut. 11:18-20 (KJV) “Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes. ¹⁹And ye shall teach them your children, speaking of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. ²⁰And thou shalt write them upon the door posts of thine house, and upon thy gates:”

To accept the responsibility of partnering with the Richmond Academy staff to develop your child’s God-given spiritual, physical, mental, social and artistic gifts to his fullest potential.
