Our approach to problem solving is based upon Matthew 18 with respect to Galatians 6:1, and is summarized as follows:

First, pray about the matter and examine your (and your child's) motives and heart. Go to the teacher or person involved and discuss the problem together. If no resolution can be achieved at this point, go to the principal or administrator and request a meeting with the teacher.

Going to the source -- not to neighbors, relatives, and friends, solves problems. In all things, it is important to endeavor to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. It is our intention to give and hear good reports about people. See Philippians 4:8.

At time of enrollment, parents, teachers and board members will be asked to sign a commitment in relation to this. The Bible requires that any conflict between believers be resolved within the Body of Christ and not be the world legal system. See 1 Cor. 6:1-7.
