Frequently Asked Questions

Scripture and biblical worldview frame instruction across all subjects — science, history, and language arts include faith perspectives, not just separate Bible class. Teachers apply Christian principles throughout the school day. Faith shapes how subjects are taught, not when.

Grouped classrooms (K-1, 2-3, and 4-6) keep students with consistent teachers across grade levels, so teachers know each child's learning style, strengths, and areas needing support deeply. Multi-year relationships allow differentiated instruction that adapts as the child grows.

Christian preschools integrate prayer, biblical stories, and character development into daily routines from day one, while daycares focus primarily on supervision and play. Faith is woven into learning activities, not added as an optional extra. The environment centers on spiritual and academic preparation together.

Drop-off begins at 6:30 AM with extended care, structured classes run 9 AM to 3:30 PM, and after-school pickup extends until 5:00–5:30 PM. This schedule supports working families who need care beyond traditional school hours. Breakfast is provided daily for early arrivals.

Structured Pre-K introduces classroom routines, social interaction with peers, and early literacy and math concepts that close readiness gaps before kindergarten starts. Children learn to follow multi-step instructions, share materials, and transition between activities. These skills accelerate adjustment when formal schooling begins.

DHS assistance eligibility affects tuition rates directly — families approved for assistance pay reduced tuition based on their qualification level. Contact the school to discuss current assistance status, since rates vary depending on individual eligibility. Assistance makes private Christian education accessible to more Lansing families.

Multi-generational enrollment reflects trust built over decades — parents who attended as children choose the same faith-based environment and consistent teaching approach for their own kids. Long-standing community relationships and proven outcomes create loyalty that spans 44 years. Familiarity with teachers and values reduces uncertainty for returning families.

Classes run 9 AM to 3:30 PM with breakfast provided at arrival, lunch (parent-packed Monday–Thursday, school-provided Fridays), and snacks for K-6 students. Instruction integrates biblical principles across subjects. Extended care before and after class accommodates working parents' schedules.

Grouped classrooms with consistent teachers across multiple years allow differentiated instruction — students who excel receive advanced material while those needing support get targeted help. Teachers know each child's pace and learning style deeply. Small class size makes individualized attention sustainable daily.

Peanut allergies can cause severe, life-threatening reactions even from trace contact or airborne particles in enclosed classrooms. A strict no-peanut-product policy protects allergic students while simplifying meal monitoring for staff. Parents provide lunches knowing all families follow the same safety standard.

Evaluate how faith is integrated — is it woven into daily academics or limited to chapel and Bible class? Check teacher continuity, class sizes, and whether multi-generational families return. Ask how curriculum applies biblical worldview across subjects, not just in religion class.

Christian schools integrate faith into every subject throughout the day — history, science, and literature are taught through a biblical lens, not compartmentalized. Public school with separate church programs treats faith as an add-on activity. The foundational worldview shaping daily instruction differs fundamentally.
