CAMPUS CULTURE AT EVANGELHOUSE CHRISTIAN ACADEMY

Healthy Peer Culture

Every student is included as a valued member of the peer group at Evangelhouse Christian Academy. We offer a unique social structure that cultivates 360-degree feedback from peers, parents, and professional staff. Such feedback hones students’ awareness of their behavior and its effects on themselves and others. The connection between their actions and resulting consequences is emphasized in order to develop enhanced social skills. At Evangelhouse Christian Academy, consistent social structures, biblical guidance, and 360-degree feedback produce emotional growth and social maturity.

With supervision, students experience the social atmosphere, group therapeutic process, and spiritual tone of campus life. We nurture a healthy peer culture that emphasizes social responsibility, accountability, and leadership. The staff leads weekly interactive small-group meetings to teach students character development within their current social interactions. Here students learn relevant ways to apply biblical teachings to their actions. As students progress, they learn to look beyond themselves to provide encouragement and support for others.

At Evangelhouse, we have designed our activities and daily structure to improve social competence. Personal responsibility is encouraged and rewarded in our community, and any hurting behavior is totally unacceptable.  As Evangelhouse students become more committed to caring for themselves and others in the community, they abandon hurtful behaviors.

Our Campus

The Evangelhouse campus is located in St. Martinville, Louisiana. We have a very safe, rural setting that allows us to engage in English horseback riding and other outdoor activities city campuses can’t offer.

Our beautiful 27-acre private campus offers athletic amenities including soccer, track, and a variety of field sports and various outdoor activities. Each day at Evangelhouse, students engage in on-campus team sports activities such as soccer, volleyball, softball, and flag football. Other recreational sports include ultimate Frisbee, kickball, and Capture the Flag.

Our campus is purposefully small and we limit our enrollment to just 16 girls at a time. Parents find our setting perfect in that it’s far enough away from home to make a clean break from current relationships and stressors. Additionally, we are rural enough that local distractions and temptations are at a minimum.

St. Martinville

St. Martinville is located on the Bayou Teche, a waterway in south-central Louisiana.  Ths streets are shaded by century-old mossy oaks, and residents enjoy fishing, picnics in the parks, and visits to historic museums.

The third oldest town in Louisiana, St. Martinville has many buildings and homes with historic architecture. The historic St. Martin de Tours Catholic Church and La Maison Duchamp are located on Main Street. The church was dedicated to Martin of Tours in France, where a St Martin de Tours church can be found. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow’s, “Evangeline: A Tale of Acadie” was set in St. Martinville and is the home of Longfellow-Evangeline State Historic Site.

Over the course of the year, the temperature typically varies from 44°F to 90°F and is rarely below 30°F or above 95°F. Our campus is about about 60 minutes from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and 140 minutes from New Orleans, Louisiana.

St. Martinville, famous in its early days as the “style center” of south Louisiana, was settled by refugees of the French nobility during the French Revolution. This heritage remains evident in its culture and in physical forms such as the La Maison Duchamp pictured above.
