Our Mission
Children In the Spirit Christian School (CIS) is a faith-based learning community dedicated to developing the whole child—academically, socially, emotionally, and spiritually. We believe that every child is uniquely created with purpose, and it is our responsibility to nurture their gifts while building a strong foundation for lifelong success.
At CIS, we go beyond traditional instruction by creating a balanced environment where students are challenged academically and supported with care and intention. Through small group instruction, differentiated learning, and hands-on experiences, we meet students where they are and guide them toward growth and achievement.
Our commitment to the whole child means that we intentionally foster:
Academic Excellence
through structured, standards-based instruction
Social Development
by encouraging collaboration, communication, and positive relationships
Emotional Growth
by creating a safe, nurturing environment where students feel valued and supported
Spiritual Foundation
by integrating Christian values, character education, and faith-based principles into daily learning
Family Partnership
We also believe that strong partnerships between school and home are essential. At CIS, families are an integral part of our community, and we work closely with parents to ensure each child’s success both inside and outside the classroom.
“Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.”
Proverbs 22:6
At Children In the Spirit, we are not just educating students—we are shaping confident, compassionate disciples of Christ so they may thrive in every area of their life and community.
