Central Christian School

read moreThank you for your interest in Central Christian School. We're aware that selecting a school where your child and family can thrive is a big decision requiring much thought, prayer, examination, and conversation. At Central, we understand the tension facing families today because we live it ourselves. We want our children to know and love God intimately while still engaging culture. We want them to be well prepared for middle and high school yet remain fully present in the joy and wonder of childhood.

read moreThank you for considering a Christian education at Central for your child. Here we believe children play an important role in God's story for humanity. Even now in their childhood, He is using this next generation to bring joy to a weary world and restoration to the brokenness around them. We see this every day at Central -- in our classrooms, on the playground, and even from behind their masks. We know you feel their impact, too, in your own families and homes. We appreciate your desire to not only prepare your child academically for middle school and high school, but to train them to engage culture and impact their generation as described in our Portrait of a Graduate.

Through the lens of strong academics, we believe God draws children to himself through knowledge and learning. Applying to private schools can seem overwhelming even during typical circumstances, let alone during a pandemic. The purpose of our admissions process is to ensure applicants will thrive at Central Christian School -- academically, socially, emotionally, and spiritually -- within our learning environment.

We start with a curricular foundation of biblical worldview, identifying core enduring truths for each unit and establishing essential questions for students to uncover. With this biblical worldview framework in place, our teachers then plan for learning across the disciplines. Just as life is not fractured into separate subjects as we interact with society, our curriculum is not either. Rather, it simulates the complexity of real life as unit themes are studied holistically and instruction and assessment practices are based in real-world application.
