What does compulsory education often do? It makes a straight-cut ditch of a free,meandering brook. -Henry David Thoreau |
Rosewood Academy's ministry is to provide a legal church school cover for families that have decided to accept the responsibility of their child's learning experience. Learning is a verb different than teaching or educating- learning is something you do, not something done to you. A child owns the word "learn". Children are not only capable of learning but want to learn. The home is an ideal setting for children to explore their unique talents, develop their strengths, and realize their potential. A beautiful thing happens when a child becomes aware of their capabilities; independence, self-direction, aspirations, and free creative expression ensue. A child that is alive and full of vitality experiences true self-esteem. |

Philosophy: |
My Rights I have a right to laugh and be happy, Express my ideas and feelings freely, Nobody has a right to laugh at me and hurt my feelings. I have a right to be respected as a person, No matter how I look, Whether I am a boy or a girl, I deserve to be treated fairly. I have a right to be safe. Nobody has a right to hit, kick, push, or try to touch me in a way that makes me feel uncomfortable. I have a right to say NO, Either to a young person or an adult when I am asked to do something that is dangerous or wrong, or simply does not seem right to me, I am able to say NO. I have a right to ask questions and learn. I have a right to follow my dreams. I have a right to be proud of the things I do well, proud of myself. |
