Frequently Asked Questions

 

          1.  Why choose a Christian School?

          God is working through Wooster Christian School today to enable parents to train up their children

          in the ways God would have them go. Proverbs 22:6, "Train a child in the way he should go, and

          when he is old he will not turn from it."  

          At Wooster Christian School we provide quality and excellence in our educational programs. We also

          provide students with a Biblically based education. Students are taught the truths of the Bible in all their 

          classes. The curriculum is Christ-centered and enables students to gain true wisdom and understanding

          about God and the world He has created.  Professionally trained Christians that love teaching children

          are making an incredible impact on the lives of our students.

          A Christian is never finished growing in understanding and in wisdom. God is continually teaching us new

          things. Wooster Christian School is a great environment for promoting spiritual growth and for providing

          a gateway through which God can work in a student's life.
