Spiritual Life & Legacy of Wheaton Academy
The Main Thing
"The spiritual life of a school is the main thing. It is the end for which all other things exist. Of what value are buildings, equipment, books, apparatus, students, and teachers if the result is not spiritual gain for man and the world? Not only is the spiritual the main thing in [school] life, but it is the most difficult thing."
-Charles A. Blanchard in his autobiography, 1915
