Mission: Logos Academy, an urban, kingdom school grounded in the love of Christ, educates for excellence, offers opportunity and cultivates hope in our community. In 1998 Logos Academy made a commitment to make a high quality education available to students in need regardless of their financial status. We started with a set of mission-critical values that have rooted our school culture from conception:
• CHRIST-CENTERED: We seek to know Jesus and be led by His Spirit. We find our origin, our meaning and our destiny in Christ, our sustainer and king. We are called to shine the light of Christ into every corner of our existence; thereby fulfilling our purpose of glorifying God.
• CULTURALLY DIVERSE: We value diversity as a demonstration of God’s love for us, and it is manifested in our students, families, staff, and city. Separately, we remain impoverished and underprivileged – the poor and affluent alike. Together, we become empowered and enlightened, building bridges of brotherhood through the love of Christ.
• COMMUNITY FOCUSED: We foster internal relationships between our students, families and staff but also strive to be a good neighbor in our broader community. Students, families and staff learn, pray, laugh, struggle and become – together; as those bonds grow, the sense of togetherness spills into the greater York community.
• CLASSICALLY EDUCATED: We cultivate all students in the Classical tradition to become people of wisdom, grace and virtue in service to God’s kingdom. Teachers expose students to an exceptional education and a solid, Biblical worldview by serving as disciplers and mentors. These relationships are foundational to student’s growth academically, emotionally and spiritually.
• COLLABORATIVE FAMILY PARTNERSHIPS: We believe that a participatory family is critical to what we do during the school day. Parents and families are an essential part of the Logos Academy community, and we value each person’s involvement.
