This article explores a study on the Christian Schooling Movement in Korea through a discussion of Calvinist Day Schools in North America. The Calvinistic Day Schools were the cradle of God’s church and the origin of Christian Schools in America. This paper describes the roots of Calvinist Day Schools, their biblical foundations, and the distinctiveness of the Calvinistic Day Schools Movements. It also offers some reflections for Christian schooling in Korea. The first chapter explains the two roots of Calvinist Day Schools which are discussed in this paper: the cultural and ecclesiastical roots. The second chapter describes the biblical foundations of Calvinist Day Schools. Sovereignty of God and social spheres, covenant, revelation, and cultural mandate are all important aspects regarding biblical foundations. The third chapter relates the distinctiveness of the Calvinist Day Schools which focus on the locus of educational authority, the aim of education, curriculum integration, and concerns about Christian community. Finally, the fourth chapter of this paper attempts to reflect on the implications of Christian Day Schools in Korea: parent’s education, teacher education, developing textbooks, and supporting parents and Christian schools. In conclusion, this paper suggests that the Christian schooling Movements in Korea should be based upon biblical foundations and parents must learn theological foundations for Christian schooling in order to be successful. The Korean church needs to encourage Christian schools and support parents to have a mission of Christian schooling.

소개
한국에 복음이 들어오고, 교회가 설립된 것은 19세기 말이었다.
해방이 되면서 한국교회는 더욱 발전하게 되었고 그에 따라 기독교교육의 중요성과 필요성도 강조되게 되었다. 그러한 과정에 기독교교육을 전공한 학자들이 귀국함에 따라 그들을 중심으로 한국기독교교육학회를 결성할 필요성을 느껴 설립하게 되었다.
한국기독교교육학회의 설립 목적은 기독교교육학의 이론적 발전과 실천을 위한 연구와 장을 확대해가려는 것이다. 그리고 학자들간의 연구교류와 교제를 위한 장을 마련하기 위하여 본 학회를 1960년에 설립하였다.
