Cornerstone Academy is a privately owned educational institution registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the name Cornerstone Christian Academy of Quezon City, Inc. However, the school is fondly called Cornerstone Academy or CA for short.
We would like to be a premiere institution in Metro Manila that helps raise up God-fearing, productive, and responsible citizens through quality Christian education, all for the glory of God.
We believe that Christian education encompasses all the dimensions of life from a biblical perspective. We believe that God is the source of all truth and that the Bible is the foundation and authority for faith and conduct. We believe that man must be educated as a total person so that he can know God, understand the world he lives in, and live wisely in preparation for eternity. We also believe that education is primarily the responsibility of parents and that the school is simply partnering with them as an extension of the home.
Therefore, since we believe that true education is that which encompasses all the dimensions of a person's life from a biblical perspective in order to help him or her live wisely on earth in preparation for eternity with God, our school motto is "Learning that outlasts a lifetime."
Our school verse is found in Ecclesiastes 12:13-14, which says, "Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God and keep His commandments, for this is man's all. For God will bring every work into judgement, including every secret thing, whether good or evil."
Our faculty members and staff are all born-again Christians who are members of Bible-believing local churches and are graduates of respectable teacher training institutions in the Philippines. They are either employed as full-time or part-time personnel. The school also employs resource teachers for specialized fields of skill training. Our teachers acknowledge that they are in loco parenti, guiding their students through learning experiences that optimize their God-given potentials. Administrative and non-academic personnel are also employed to serve the various needs of the school.
We believe that every student is uniquely created by God, having physical, social, emotional, intellectual, spiritual needs, as well as his or her own special abilities and capabilities. They differ in their rates of progress and learning styles. They also have different family backgrounds, personalities, interests, and life experiences. Thus, CA strives to provide an appropriate, holistic environment that will cater to students that are uniquely and especially designed by God.
CA upholds a code of conduct for all its students. We believe that the following character traits that we value are essential in order to fulfill our vision of raising up God-fearing, responsible, and productive citizens.
Every year, Cornerstone Awards are given to students not just for academic excellence, but also for admirable character traits that reflect the school's core values.
