School Notes
Judah Christian School is a distinctively Christian educational
institution that provides a nurturing and faith-filled learning
environment to preschool, elementary, and secondary students.
As an interdenominational Christian school, nearly 60 local
churches are represented in our student body. We believe that:
- Parents are the primary educators of their children spiritually, physically, emotionally, academically, and socially.
- The Christian school should be an extension of the Christian home. JCS is here to partner with parents as they pursue their God-given responsibility to educate and train their child.
- School should be both academically rigorous and fun. Our challenging curriculum, gifted teachers, and classroom atmosphere create a special space that inspires the transforming action of learning.
