Teacher Support Fund:

As you know, our CHS teachers do not received any salary from the school; they depend on God working through individuals and churches to meet their financial needs. Our teachers are worthy of support and, therefore, a $25 per month, per student contribution to be directed to the Faculty Support Fund is encouraged. This contribution is tax-deductible. Make check payable to Youth With a Mission with a separate note for CHS Faculty Support.

DRESS STANDARDS

As teachers and students, we have set ourselves to learn all we can about God and His marvelous creation. In every way, we want to encourage one another toward that end. We do not want our clothing or grooming in any way to distract others or ourselves from the important work that God has called us to do here at CHS.

Therefore, during school activities, teachers and students are to be dressed in a way that represents a serious attitude toward learning, God’s principle of individuality, and Christian self-government.


All Students

  • Pants should be worn at the true waist and must not drag on the ground. They should not have holes, rips or frayed hems. Pants should not be too baggy, nor too tight. Athletic or sweat pants are not permitted. Shorts may not be worn.
  • Hats are not permitted.
  • Shirts should have sleeves and should hang no longer than the fingertips when the arms are at the sides. Shirts with offensive messages may not be worn.
  • Hair styles should be neat, simple and practical. Hair colors should be natural colors.
  • All clothing should be clean and not wrinkled.
  • Body piercing (except earrings for girls) is not permitted.
  • Flip-flops, beach shoes, and slides are not permitted. Leather, not rubber, sandals held between the toes are permitted. Note: Elementary students should wear shoes that are appropriate for playground activities.


Male Students

Hair may not extend below the collar of the shirt, below the eyebrows, or below the bottom of the earlobe. Ponytails, design cuts into the hair, and shaved heads are not permitted.


Female Students

Blouses and shirts should fit comfortably and not be cut too low in the front or back, nor should they allow any part of the undergarment to be seen. (This applies to dresses as well.) Sleeveless blouses may be worn, but shirts, blouses, or dresses that resemble tank tops may not be worn. Tops must not expose a bare midriff.

Skirts and dresses should be worn modestly and should have a hem length that falls below the fingertips when arms are fully extended at the sides. Split skirts may be worn if they are made like a dress and are the appropriate length.


NOTE: In the event a student wears inappropriate apparel and does not have a change of clothing on campus, the student will be sent to the office. A parent will be called to provide proper clothing or give permission for the student to wear school-issued apparel for the rest of the school day. Students will not be allowed to leave campus to change clothes.

OUR HISTORY

The leaders of Youth With A Mission invited Jim and Barbara Kilkenny to plant Christian Heritage School (CHS) in Tyler, Texas in order to serve the missionary families of YWAM and the local East Texas community. God confirmed that call by giving the Kilkennys a strategy to disciple the nations through education. Simply put, this strategy is to train teachers and students in the same philosophy of education that first produced liberty in America. This philosophy was eloquently expressed by the founders of Harvard College:


“Let every student be plainly instructed, and earnestly pressed...
to lay Christ at the bottom as the only Foundation
of all sound knowledge and learning.”


This was the view of education that secured for America, at its founding, the tremendous gifts of freedom and prosperity which let to the flourishing of science, industry, and the arts.

After acquiring the campus of Tyler’s Dixie School, CHS opened its doors in September of 1980. Starting with 30 students, CHS quickly grew into a school that now co-labors with some 100 families who have caught the vision of education that imparts the keys to national reformation.
