Courts and Fields are great laboratories for building integrity and developing Godly character. Our Athletic Director oversees multiple tournaments for boys and girls throughout the school calendar year. A comprehensive athletic handbook keeps every school on the same page, ensuring a fun, fair and Christian atmosphere.
Music, speech, drama and visual arts are fields in which Christian students have much to offer. Annual competitive festivals are held on the elementary, junior high, and senior high level. Most students use the skills they learn in their Christian school to minister in their local church as well. Many go on to perfect their skills in college and the professional arts.
