Admissions

It is an essential belief at the Sonshine Christian Academy that the Word of God is the fundamental source of knowledge and wisdom for the “fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, …the beginning of knowledge, … and all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge are hid in Christ.” (Proverbs 1:7, 9:10; Colossians 2:3) Moreover, we adhere to a theistic rather than the humanistic frame of reference for the origins of the universe. We believe, “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.” (Genesis 1:1)

It is our contention that a student’s adherence to Christian principles, as taught at SCA, will positively affect his/her relationship with society. We will teach our children to imitate positive role models of inspired teachers who exemplify the love, peace, tenderness, kindness, long-suffering, meekness, and gentleness of Christ Jesus. When children are exposed to those Christ-like characteristics, they will imitate them, and in turn, exemplify them to others contributing to a moral society.

Only after receiving a quality education will students learn and accept their purpose in life. Therefore, Christian education is constitutive to the making of the individual, the preservation of the family and the survival of the nation.

At Sonshine Christian Academy, we offer a Christ-centered educational program that enables each student to acquire knowledge, personal qualities, skills, understanding and the qualifications necessary for students to live and thrive in a multicultural and ever-changing society. The achievement of this philosophy demands emphasis on effective learning within a school culture conducive to this end.

The objectives of the Sonshine Christian Academy are:

• To provide a Christ-centered educational program, which prepares students to live in a multicultural and ever-changing society.
• To impress upon students the need to excel academically.
• To expose students to Biblical Truths on a daily basis and teach its relevance to the past, present, and future life.
• To mold values around the Word of God so that they are compliant with Biblical teachings.
• To employ well-trained, certified and spirit-filled teachers who will be exemplary models of the Christian life, and would be sensitive to the spiritual educational and personal needs of the students.
• To establish and foster an allegiance of students, parents and staff which will share the responsibility of education.
• To guide the individual to discover and enhance their unique abilities.

Only after learning of God and His purpose for man can we learn of ourselves and our purpose of life.  Therefore, Christian education is essential to the making of the individual, the preservation of the family, and the survival of the nation.

Sonshine Christian Academy exists as a coeducational day Academy for grades PreK-8. It is operated as a nondenominational educational corporation incorporated as a non-profit corporation under the laws of the State of Ohio and governed by a member-elected Board of Trustees.

Sonshine Christian Academy will provide a Christ-centered education for the qualified children of the Columbus area and surrounding communities without distinction to race, color, gender, national or ethnic origin or socioeconomic status.

Sonshine Christian Academy has been established for these purposes:

1. To establish and maintain a private educational institution which will encompass all departments of learning and knowledge with emphasis on developing high moral character, pride and respect for this free democratic society, and a basic understanding of God’s Word.
2. To provide an educational facility consecrated to God’s glory and a staff devoted to Christian training and scholastic excellence.
3. To offer a curriculum which, based on a Christian philosophy, is continuously current in subject matter and compliant to the laws of the State of Ohio and the regulations of the Ohio State Board of Education.
4. To dedicate the work of this learning institution to the personages of Bishop Sandy Dunlap and Mother Emma Dunlap, grandparents of the founder, in appreciation and acknowledgment of their spiritual strength, perseverance, leadership and wisdom.
5. To impress upon students the need to excel academically, striving for skill attainment at least two levels above national norms in the area of reading and math.

6. To discipline the student in reasonable and moderate means, training him to become self-disciplined.
7. To teach students to respect government leaders and the laws of the land and to have pride and respect for this free democratic country.
8. To provide auxiliary services as needed to supplement the educational program and enable the school to better meet the needs of the student.

10. To help the students face life with courage and understanding and a living faith in God that will make him a credit to Christ, his family, his church, his community, his nation and to himself.

As students learn to work to please the Lord (Col. 3:23), achievement and grades will reflect that effort. Because each student is different, we discourage comparing one student’s grades with those of another student, especially within the family. Rather, ask whether each student is reaching his or her own potential. Grade cards are available online at the end of each nine-week grading period as designated on the School Calendar.

Grades are explained on the report card. Students who are working below grade level are evaluated with consideration for improved progress. Such evaluations involve the input of the classroom teacher, the remedial reading teacher and/or the academic assistance tutor if applicable.

**SPECIAL NOTE: Access to Report cards will not be released to students who have:

• An outstanding account balances i.e. latch key of 50.00 or more fees from a previous school year.
• A class or sports fee due
• Fundraising money due
• Outstanding food service account
• Fees owed for lost or damaged textbooks

PROGRESS REPORTS (K-8^th only)

Interim reports are available online at the end of four and a half weeks in the middle of each grading period to inform parents of their student’s progress and difficulties.

ACADEMIC ASSISTANCE PROGRAM

A remedial reading teacher is available to work with at-risk students on a limited basis. With parental approval, students recommended for the program are tested and scheduled for small group or individual tutoring sessions outside the regular classroom.

ACADEMIC DETENTION / SATURDAY SCHOOL

Academic Detention is not to be confused with a Disciplinary Detention. The purpose of Academic Detention is to compel a student to take time to do the required work that has been neglected or poorly done.

Academic Detention / Saturday School will be held on Saturdays from 8:00 to 12:00 p.m. Saturday School supervision cost will be $15.00 per student, and will need to be paid by parent or guardian upon arrival. Parents will be notified at least two days prior to the detention. Notices received by the student on Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday will be served on Saturday of that same week. Notices received on Thursday or Friday will be served on the Saturday of the following week. Parents must have their child at SCA a few minutes before 8:00 a.m. and pick them up promptly at 12:00 p.m.  An out of school suspension will result if student does not attend an assigned Saturday School. 

PROMOTION and RETENTION

• A parent or teacher may recommend retention for a kindergarten student if the student is not academically, socially, or developmentally ready for first grade.
• A student shall be retained in the first or second grade if deficient in reading, or is failing in math and is also exceptionally low in reading. The heaviest emphasis in first and second grades shall be placed on reading.
• A student shall be detained in all other grades if failing in any two academic subjects. If there is need for an exception to this rule because the student is below average or for other reasons such as social maladjustment, the teacher should confer with the principal.
• Promotion may be possible upon the completion of summer school. This determination can only be made after completion of the summer school session. Promotion or retention decisions are to be made by the administration.
• Generally speaking, a student should not be retained more than twice in the first six grades or more than once in the 7th or 8th grades.
• A student may be detained in any grade at any time, even with low passing grades, if the teacher, principal, and parent agree it will be beneficial to the student.
• Following sound principles of guidance, it is our policy not to advocate the skipping of grades.

WHAT IS CYBERBULLYING?

Cyberbullying is bulling that takes place using electronic technology. Electronic technology includes devices and equipment such as cell phones, computers, and tablets as well as communication tools including social media sites, text messages, chat, and websites.

Examples of cyberbullying include mean text messages or emails, rumors sent by email or posted on social networking sites, embarrassing pictures, videos, websites, or fake profiles.

WHY CYBERBULLYING IS DIFFERENT?

Students who are being cyberbullied are often bullied in person as well. Additionally, students who are cyberbullied have a hard time getting away from the behavior.

• Cyberbullying can happen 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and reach a student even when he or she is alone. It can happen any time of the day or night.
• Cyberbullying messages and images can be posted anonymously and distributed quickly to a very wide audience. It can be difficult and sometimes impossible to trace the source.
• Deleting inappropriate or harassing messages, texts, and pictures is extremely difficult after they have been posted or sent.

Please take note cyberbullying will not be tolerated if it affects the educational process of SCA.

Cyberbullying may result in expulsion.

CLASSROOM STANDARDS

It is the responsibility of the student to respect the teacher’s authority and decisions at all times. Respect for authority is required regardless of whether or not the student agrees with the teacher’s decision or instructions. The teacher is solely responsible for conducting the class – not the pupil!

• Students must be prepared and ready for class work by having all needed supplies on hand in the classroom.
• Students are not to disturb other classes in session.
• The teacher dismisses students after the bell has rung.
• Students are not to bring toys to school, except for special classroom projects and occasions

HARASSMENT POLICY

In accordance with federal and state laws and school policy, Sonshine Christian Academy WILL NOT TOLERATE HARASSMENT AGAINST ANY STAFF MEMBER OR STUDENT.

This policy prohibits harassment on the basis of sex, race, national origin, religion, age, disability or sexual orientation.  Harassment is defined as slurs, jokes, intimidation or any verbal or physical attack directed at someone’s sex, race, national origin, religion, age, disability or sexual orientation.

For purposes of implementation and enforcement of this policy, harassment shall be deemed to occur only when the alleged conduct is so severe, persistent or pervasive, that it materially and adversely affects a student’s ability to benefit from an educational program or activity, or creates an intimidating, threatening, hostile or abusive educational or employment environment.

ALL students will be told to keep their hands, feet and mouths to themselves.  If this simple rule is followed, there should not be a danger of harassment charges being brought forth against your children.

Keeping ones mouth to themselves includes touching someone else with the mouth or saying things to people that can be defined as slurs, jokes, intimidation or any verbal attack directed at an individuals race, sex, national origin, religion, age, disability or sexual orientation.  Please remind your children to follow the rules and stay out of trouble.  Thank you for your cooperation with this matter.

INFRACTIONS

A conference between the student and teacher, Dean of Students or Principal will handle infractions of the discipline and/or dress codes. A written report, letter, or phone call will be directed to the parents. Parents may be asked to come to school for a conference. All such infractions will be documented and where a pattern of infractions are identified, additional disciplinary action will be imposed.

Students and parents are expected to support the spirit and intent of SCA disciplinary and dress codes rather than just the letter of such codes. Students and/or parents of SCA students who are unwilling to accept and support these higher standards of conduct should find other educational institutions suitable to their life-styles. To reiterate, the opportunity to attend Sonshine Christian Academy is a privilege. 

DISCIPLINE PROCEDURES

While it is our goal to focus on the student success plan and SCA guidelines, there are times when we need to help students solve problems, make better decisions, improve academic excellence, and/or be more respectful.  Our first and foremost goal is to make sure that each child is safe and has access to a positive learning environment.  Therefore, it is sometimes necessary to use the discipline procedures to help redirect behavior to keep the student and our school safe.  The following describes the LEVELS I, II, and III offenses.  PLEASE NOTE THAT HARASSMENT, INTIMIDATION, AND BULLYING ARE AGAINST THE LAW AND HAS MORE SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES.
