Program accomplishments

  • Stillwater Christian School provided a Christ-centered, Biblically integrated education to students in kindergarten through twelfth grade, equipping students with academic excellence alongside a foundation rooted in Christian faith and character development. Academic instruction across all grade levels was delivered within a framework that integrates Biblical principles into every subject area, serving families seeking an educational environment that reinforces their faith values. In further support of its mission, the Organization operated a Parent-Teacher Organization that fostered meaningful engagement between families and the school community, and maintained a hot lunch program providing students with access to nutritious meals during the school day. Together, these programs reflect the Organizations commitment to serving the whole child in a manner consistent with its Christian mission.
