What We Believe

Our Philosophy

The philosophy of LUOA is based on the premise that man’s ultimate purpose is to glorify God (Isaiah 43:7; 1 Corinthians 10:31). Thus, LUOA serves as an extension of students’ families to aid them in their God-given responsibility to educate their children for the glory of God (Psalm 78:5-6). LUOA exists to help students reach their full potential by guiding them in developing spiritually, morally, personally, socially, and academically (Luke 2:52; Colossians 1:9-10). The faculty and staff recognize that only when students accept Jesus Christ as Savior and yield to His Lordship can they realize their unique potential (Romans 10:10-13).

LUOA is a K-12 school that exists as a department of Liberty University. Teachers and administrative staff must be professed born-again Christians who are committed to living for Jesus Christ, understanding that their lives serve as an example to those they teach.

Education and learning are biblical imperatives (Deuteronomy 6:6-7; Proverbs 3:1-9); therefore, all instruction is biblically-based (Deuteronomy 4:2-9). LUOA designed the curriculum based on the following biblical themes:

1. Creation – God’s mandate at creation was for mankind to have dominion over the earth (Genesis 1:26-28), which has grown to require learning in the areas of language, mathematics, the physical and natural sciences, history, technology, and the fine arts.
2. The Fall of Man – The hostile environment resulting from the fall of man (Genesis 3:9-24) intensifies the need to gain an in-depth understanding of all curricular areas in light of God’s written Word.
3. Redemption – Man is saved by professing Jesus Christ as Lord (Romans 10:10; Ephesians 2:8). LUOA writes curriculum with the intent of teaching all students this biblical truth.
4. Discipleship – The command for Christians to evangelize the lost and to disciple believers (Matthew 28:18-20) further elevates the need to master all of the above areas.
5. Restoration – Jesus rose from the dead and prepares a place for all those who believe in order that they may be restored to Him (Hebrews 9:28; John 14:3).

Our Mission

To work toward its vision, LUOA seeks to provide support to parents/guardians in their biblical responsibility to train their children to become Christ-centered men and women with the values, knowledge, and skills essential to impact the world.
