VALUES:
PHILOSOPHY OF CHRISTIAN EDUCATION
Reality
God is the personal and purposeful Creator and represents the guiding force of the universe. Reality in life involves understanding that God is real and is active in the lives of men and women today.
Truth
All truth is Gods truth. Truth is consistent throughout the universe. Truth exists and is an absolute. God has revealed Himself through His Scriptures, through nature, and through His Son. Mans understanding of truth comes through a study of the inspired Word of God, an understanding of His creation, and having a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
Knowledge
All knowledge must be put in the context of biblical truth. Any knowledge or personal conviction that serves as a guiding principle in an individuals life must be measured against the standard of truth as revealed in Gods inspired Word.
Man
Man is created in the spiritual and moral image or likeness of God. Mans essential nature is his freedom to choose or decide for himself what his behavior will be, and what he will think, become, and do. Mans essential freedom of choice is affected by his inherent nature and his environment of both good and evil. Therefore, he is in need of special help to choose good and to find fulfillment in a reconciled life made possible by Jesus, the divine Son of God.
Christian Education
In order for an educational program to be academically sound and instructionally effective, it must be founded upon Christian educational principles that recognize the true nature of God, truth, knowledge, and man. Implicit in Christian education are these basic truths:
Man possesses a spiritual dimension (Genesis 1:26-27).
Education involves the total being spiritually, intellectually, physically, and socially (Proverbs 9:9).
Each person possesses unique and individual potential, traits, and needs (Roman 12:3-8).
The educational experience must involve (as a primary emphasis) the development of Christian beliefs, attitudes, and skills toward zealous application. An integration of Bible truth will be an inseparable and primary part of the total educational process. Christian concepts will be unified with inseparable from, and central to the academic offerings.
Youth need a steady influence while preparing to live in a complex society. Only the bible has the answers to mans needs and longings, and therefore it will serve as the final authority for determining our guiding principles on all questions.
VISION:
Body of Christ Christian Academys vision is simplified by using the ABCs of Christian education:
A > Academic Excellence
B > Bible Centered Education
C > Character Development

Darryl Harris attended Hillside High School in Durham, NC. His inspiration was his father, Harold McCorkle, a former High School All-American. Harris was a late bloomer but went on to attend and play at Montreat College for 2 seasons. He became a starter half way through his freshman year and averaged 10.2 points, 3 assists and 2.5 rebounds while at Montreat. Prep Stars named Harris the College Ambassador Athlete in 1991. Harris graduated from Montreat in 1991 with an Associate degree in Science.
Now in his second season as athletic director and head basketball coach, Harris has reached a new level of success. The 2010-2011 high school team played a very tough schedule playing top ranked programs and players. Harris lead Body of Christ post graduate team/plus four(4) against some of the top professional and collegiate basketball players in the nation during the Pro-Am. BOCCA finished 4-4 and advanced into the playoffs. Coach Harris and staff understand that it is oftentimes challenging, but to be the best you must play the best. Offering the maximum exposure for BOCCA student athletes, the high school team finished the season 24-16! Likewise, the post graduate team played an impressive schedule and finished 23-17!
