A Message From Our Head of Schools

As a parent myself, I understand the pressure you feel to raise your children well and set them up for success—academically, socially, emotionally, and spiritually.

That’s why we’re passionate about partnering with you in your children’s education. Since 1971, we have come alongside families looking for a financially attainable education centered on a rigorous curriculum rooted in Biblical truth.

As our culture becomes less community-centric, school plays an increasingly important role in the formation of children. Our carefully selected team of teachers loves Jesus, loves teaching, and loves working with students. They are gifted at bringing subjects to life and passionate about nurturing the hearts and souls of their students, consistently pointing them to Biblical truth.

From Early Childhood Education through Grade 12, we’re committed to shepherding your family and supporting you through every season of parenting. We want to partner with you to invest in your child now for who God is preparing them to become in the future.

If you would like to raise and educate your child in a Christ-centered environment with an academically challenging curriculum, I invite you to read this guide to discover the lifelong benefits of attending Tri-City Christian School.

Sincerely,
