For students to know Truth, to pursue wisdom and serve Jesus Christ.

Where students know Truth.

We believe the most effective instruction is rooted in Scriptural Truth. Our Christ-centered education is focused on cultivating character and deepening your child’s personal relationship with Jesus.

Where students pursue wisdom.

Spiritual Truth must also be supported by academics and knowledge-building experiences. Our K-12 curriculum and small class sizes engage students in hands-on learning designed to stimulate critical-thinking and problem-solving skills.

Where students serve Jesus Christ.

With the Gospel as a guide, your child will learn to minister to others and demonstrate care through faithful acts of servant-leadership. Exciting opportunities exist on our chapel worship team to help students develop and grow their leadership skills.

The teachers go above and beyond in knowing my children

“Waterloo Christian School provides an unmatched academic and spiritual foundation for children to grow and thrive. I currently have two children enrolled in programs through WCS and am consistently impressed with the personalized attention that is provided to my children and family. The school has grown rapidly over the last few years, but the quality of education remains high. The teachers go above and beyond in knowing my children and it provides so much peace knowing that they are in an environment where they are loved and challenged on a daily basis.”
