Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:
And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart:
And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.
And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes.
And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house, and on thy gates.
-- Deuteronomy 6:4-9
GCCHSA Statement of Purpose
The Gloucester County Christian Home Schoolers Association is an association of Christian
parents who have chosen to educate our children at home, believing that this is our biblical
responsibility. The purpose of the GCCHSA is to provide information, support, encouragement,
activities, sports, field trips, and annual testing (IOWA tests) to enhance the education of
our children.
The GCCHSA defines home schooling as Christian parents educating their children and choosing
their course of study. For a student to be involved in the GCCHSA, they must be receiving
the majority of their education (grades K through 12) at home and be under the direct
supervision of their parents, grandparents, or legal guardians.
Members of the GCCHSA are required to:
download the Application Form from the website;
complete and return the
Application Form to the New Member Secretary
or the Corresponding Secretary (renewing members);
sign the Application;
fill out the Parent Participation Checklist;
be a member of a local church that agrees with the Statement of Faith OR provide a written
Testimony of Salvation to the General Board; pay annual dues;
abide by the By-Laws
and Policies governing the GCCHSA.
Parents are encouraged to become involved with activities as they continue participation
in the GCCHSA. Since the GCCHSA is a parent-supported group, parent participation is
essential in order to provide outstanding activities for our children.
