Why Apply?

We ask our parents to tell us why they chose Phil-Mont for their family, and these statements may help others decide whether Phil-Mont is the right school for their family’s educational needs and desires.

“I would like my children to be in a nurturing environment that bases its teachings on Christian values. I want my children to know and understand that God is the foundation and center of all things including education.”

“My husband and I are raising our children in the ways of the Lord. Since going to school will expose him to other influences for extended periods of time, we need to be sure that, to the greatest extent possible, the faith and values of those educating him align with ours. We believe this will be the case at Phil-Mont. Fortunately, the academic offerings and location of the school make Phil-Mont a no-brainer.”

“My wife and I trust that Phil-Mont can offer a God-centered education and provide social influences to point him to Christ as he matures, and by God’s grace would lead him to his own personal relationship with Christ. The support of Godly influences that can help shape his character and be praying for him regularly are really important to us and we’re grateful to have a school like Phil-Mont nearby.”

“Why do I want my child to attend Phil-Mont? So that he can be in an educational community where Christ is King and people are free to share their experience of Him. To best prepare him for a hostile, broken, and sinful world. To give him an opportunity to choose an identity as a follower of Jesus Christ. To give him an experience of what God’s peace [that surpasses all understanding] looks like in a community. To hopefully hold at arm’s length the many dehumanizing and degrading things our popular culture attempts to inflict on children.”

[At Phil-Mont, we trust] “That he will learn Christian principles and receive a rigorous academic education in a safe and diverse environment.”

[At Phil-Mont, we receive] “A strong academic experience grounded in Christian principles that complement our family values, that supports her cognitive, spiritual, and social-emotional growth, and that supports her ability to excel when she is in academic and non-academic environments.”

“I want My son to attend Phil-Mont to gain a more personal understanding of who Christ is and learn about Him with his peers. I want my son to learn in a more intimate environment. I believe this will allow my son to stay more focused and get excited about learning.”

[We chose Phil-Mont for our son] “To receive instruction as a child of God from others who call Him Lord and will encourage him to greater academic and spiritual excellence.”
