Notes for Prospective Students
Hillside Christian School (formerly Iowa City Bible Fellowship Day
School) has served families since 1981. Our primary goal is to
assist parents in the responsibility of educating their children
according to Biblical principles. This is accomplished through a
Christ-centered curriculum taught by mature Christian educators. An
environment is created in which students may excel socially,
morally and academically. Our 'one-room schoolhouse' approach to
education allows individual needs to be met, whether remedial or
accelerated, without labeling children. A family atmosphere
encourages students of all ages to work, play and pray together.
Hillside Christian School is a board run school and gives parents
many opportunities be an important part of the school family.
Hillside Christian School employs a variety of learning experiences
for our students. Text books by Christian publishers are
supplemented with "hands on" opportunities to create and
experiment. Field trips and guest speakers enrich studies. Holiday
and special project programs allow students to build confidence and
present their accomplishments. While an emphasis on the core
curriculum and Bible study is maintained, music, art, and other
enrichment subjects are taught weekly. The Iowa Assessment Tests
are administered each year for grades 1-8. Building children's
character and faith take priority at Hillside Christian School.
This occurs both inside and outside the classroom. While students
work hard in class, they are given ample opportunity to play
outdoors in our 'wide open spaces'for the development of the whole
child. Playground facilities, supervised games and free time allow
students to relax and enjoy childhood, not be hurried through it.
During the school year students may participate in community
outreach projects with serving Christ as the focus. We welcome
visitors. Hillside Christian School is located at 1250 Twelfth
Avenue in Coralville, Iowa. The school year generally runs between
Labor Day and Memorial Day. Those interested are encouraged to
email the school to arrange a time to visit, tour the facilities
and have their questions answered. A Kindergarten Visit Day is held
each spring for children who will be five years old by September
15. Summer applicants may call the school at 319 339-0998 and leave
