SPECIAL NOTE : Every year at WPA, textbooks come up for review and evaluation, and every year there are some new selections made. Extensive effort is expended to find texts that cover a particular academic area in a format that is as cost-effective to you as possible. Major consideration is also given to how well the text of choice aligns with our Christian values; however, we are not always able to find Christian texts with the academic criteria we stress at WPA.
We know that it will not surprise you to learn that we have yet to find the “perfect” textbook (except the Bible, of course). In fact, even Christian-based texts can include things that some of us may disagree with or find offensive. Such instances are rare, but they do occur.
Whenever our teachers become aware of these areas of concern, they make an effort to clarify our basic Christian beliefs and identify how a particular item is in conflict with those beliefs. We encourage you as parents to do the same. Help your students understand that all things written in books are not necessarily true. Help them to test all things by the Truth revealed in God’s word, the Bible, and to cultivate the habit “of rejoicing in the truth” at all times.
