As we approach election day, let’s reflect on our nations first Chief Justice John Jay's profound words: “Providence has given to our people the choice of their rulers, and it is the duty, as well as the privilege and interest of our Christian nation, to select and prefer Christians for their rulers.”
At Mountain Home Christian Academy, our vision is to educate minds, shepherd hearts, and graduate disciples, preparing students to live out their faith with purpose and integrity. Let us encourage our students to recognize the importance of electing leaders who share Christian values, understanding this responsibility as a way to protect our freedom to live out and witness our faith. As a family of believers, may we all pray, discern, and vote in ways that honor God and help shape a future where His truth and love guide our communities and nation.
As we guide our children in their education and faith, let us remember the importance of seeking true wisdom—the kind that can only be found in God's Word. King Solomon, renowned for his wisdom, taught us in Proverbs that "the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom" (Proverbs 9:10), urging us to rely on God’s truth as our foundation.
Similarly, Yale's 1787 Student Guidelines emphasized that all students should “live a religious and blameless life according to the rules of God's Word, diligently reading the Holy Scriptures, that fountain of Divine light and truth.”
At MHCA, we hold these timeless principles close, encouraging our students to not only gain knowledge but to seek God’s wisdom above all. By prioritizing Scripture and guiding them in a life of faith, we aim to nurture young hearts that are prepared to shine God’s light in the world.
Thank you for partnering with us in this journey of growing and learning together in Christ.

As we approach election season, let us take a moment to remember the values that have shaped both our country and our Academy.
In 1854, the House Judiciary Committee reminded us that “at the time of the adoption of the Constitution and the amendments, the universal sentiment was that Christianity should be encouraged...That was the religion of the founders of the republic, and they expected it to remain the religion of their descendants.”
Though some circles today have strayed from this belief, MHCA remains steadfast. Our mission is clear: to educate minds, shepherd hearts, and graduate disciples grounded in Christ’s teachings.
Together, let us stand firm in nurturing a generation prepared to lead with faith, wisdom, and purpose, secure in the knowledge of who they are in Christ.
There's been some confusion about the attire for tomorrow's Class pictures. Please send your student in their school uniform. Just a reminder, if you'd like to purchase a class group picture, please use and return the order form sent home with your student.
As we pursue our vision of educating minds, shepherding hearts, and graduating disciples, we’re reminded of the early foundation of education in the United States. The Harvard College Student Guidelines of 1636 stated: "Let every student be plainly instructed and earnestly pressed to consider well the main end of his life and studies is to know God and Jesus Christ, which is eternal life (John 17:3), and therefore to lay Christ in the bottom as the only foundation of all sound knowledge and learning. And seeing the Lord only giveth wisdom, let everyone seriously set himself by prayer in secret to seek it of him (Proverbs 2, 3). Every one shall so exercise himself in reading the Scriptures twice a day that he shall be ready to give such an account of his proficiency therein."
Education in America began with the intention of fostering godly wisdom, encouraging students to not only gain knowledge but also cultivate a heart toward Christ as the foundation of all learning. Though much has changed in education over the centuries, the need for godly wisdom has only become more essential, especially in today’s complex and divisive world.
As we approach this election season, may we all seek wisdom that is “first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits” (James 3:17), applying our faith as we make decisions that reflect Christ’s love and truth. At MHCA, we are grateful for this mission and for your commitment to instilling Christ-centered wisdom in the next generation.
We need 1 adult from each family to complete this end of quarter survey if you have not already done so. Give us feedback so we can serve your MHCA student better! If this link doesn't work, check your email for a working link.

MHCA Family: A Reflection on Faith, Prayer, and Education Before Election Day
As we approach the upcoming election, let us remember the powerful words of 2 Chronicles 7:14: "If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land."
These words remind us of the incredible impact we can have when we seek God’s guidance and commit ourselves to His principles.
Our country has a long history of acknowledging the value of Scripture in shaping moral character and wisdom. In the historic Vidal v. Girard's Executors case of 1844, the U.S. Supreme Court unanimously commended the Bible's role in education, declaring, "Why may not the Bible, and especially the New Testament, without note or comment, be read and taught as a divine revelation in schools... Where can the purest principles of morality be learned so clearly or so perfectly as from the New Testament?"
At MHCA, we’re grateful to partner with families in educating minds, shepherding hearts, and guiding students in Christ-like values. Together, let’s continue to pray for our schools, our community, and our nation. May this election bring leaders who honor God and seek His wisdom for our future.
The Cowboy Church is hosting an event on Oct. 31!
