Liberty Christian School supports the Biblical position that parents are responsible to train their children in the ways of the Lord (Eph. 6:1-4, Pro. 22:6). The school comes alongside parents in the teaching of truth and in character development. The objectives of the school are centered around the following six character builders:

- Through an acceptance that the Bible is the inspired Word of God, the only authority for faith and practice. (II Tim. 3:16-17)
- Through the knowledge that all men are sinners and can attain salvation only through personal faith in Jesus Christ as Savior. (Titus 3:5-6, John 14:6)
