Central Christian School
Central Christian School partners with families to prepare children to engage the world by instilling a passion for God, love of truth, and zeal to serve. This mission is guided by a vision to be a Gospel-driven, academically excellent learning community for each unique image-bearer of God.
Educating students ages 3 through 6th grade, Central intentionally strives to cultivate the whole child -- academically, emotionally, socially, physically, and spiritually. At Central, education is an opportunity to not only learn about the world but also about the One who created it. By integrating the truth of the Bible into our study of literacy, math, science, social studies, the arts, and other curricular areas, our students learn to see the world through a Christian worldview. By exploring, asking questions, and engaging with the community around them, our hope is that students will learn to deeply love God and love others.
Visit Central
Located just south of the Clayton business district, we invite you to visit our campus and observe our learning environment. You'll find project-based learning (PBL), small class sizes, differentiated learning, one-on-one and small group instruction, racial and socio-economic diversity, and much more. You'll discover teachers committed to seeing, knowing, and valuing each unique child.
