Purpose of the Handbook:

The Student Handbook provides students, parents, and staff with a clear, concise statement of the basic policies, procedures, and philosophy of North Raleigh Christian Academy. Although the Handbook is not intended as a definitive statement on these subjects, it is written to answer the most frequent questions asked about the policies and procedures of the Academy. In the Handbook no attempt has been made to explain the rationale for each policy or procedure, but it is important to realize that our policy and procedures are formulated as one way to implement our goals in Christian education as well as to provide for a safe, orderly, efficient, and consistent approach to problems. Commitment to these policies and procedures by students, parents, and staff enables the Academy to run on a smooth, orderly basis. Consistent support of them, however, will produce even more significant and lasting accomplishments for the students. We believe that Christian education involves encouraging and training students for responsible action. These policies and procedures are basic guidelines which should be viewed as one way we encourage and train students to recognize and assume responsibility for their actions. Therefore, the ultimate purpose of this book is to allow parents, students, and teachers to be "of one mind" in the great privilege we have of training children to honor God with their whole lives. The Board of Governors, which approves all major policies and procedures of the Academy, reviews policies as needed. Your written questions or recommendations to the Superintendent of the Academy by January 31 for the coming year are appreciated.

Purpose of the Computer Acceptable Use Policy:

NRCA has adopted this Acceptable Use Policy ("Policy") to set guidelines for accessing the computer network or the Internet service provided by NRCA. Every year, students who want computer network and Internet access for that upcoming school year need to sign and submit a copy of the Policy to NRCA. Students also must have their parents or guardians sign this Policy. By signing this agreement, the student and parent or guardian agree to follow the rules set forth in this Policy and to report any misuse of the computer network or the Internet to a teacher or supervisor. Parties agreeing to this policy also understand that NRCA may revise the Acceptable Use Policy, as it deems necessary. NRCA will provide notice of any changes either by posting such a revised version of the Policy on its website or by providing written notice to the students and parents or guardians.
