Temple Christian School has been established to minister to families in the educational aspects of child rearing.
Our desire is for the complete development of the student:academically, socially, artistically, physically and most importantly, spiritually.
We are not only attempting to teach children how to make a living, but also how to live.
Our children are our most precious resource. God-given, they are the earthly memorial to a parent`s legacy and reflections of one`s priorities while in this life.
We have our children for such a brief time of preparation for their adult lives; it behooves us to make the best of each opportunity to instill in them the proper philosophy of life.

Both of my children attend Temple Christian School! My son just completed the K-4 pre-school program this year. My son is reading 70+ words per minute and he is not only adding and subtracting but he has also started multiplication and division flashcards at home, for fun. Temple's pre-school and kindergarten program is the best kept secret in Richland County. My daughter came to Temple 2 years ago from a public school. She just completed 11th grade and will be a senior next year. Her grades have improved drastically and her love for God has grown. She has made lasting friendships and has greatly benefited from the smaller class room sizes. We are so thankful for Temple Christian School!!!

Completely impressed with the quality of education! My kids absolutely love their school, and the teachers genuinely love these kids! If anyone is considering a private education, Temple Christian needs to be considered. You can schedule a tour just about any time, and there's no doubt you'll be impressed! It's an excellent value compared to other private schools.

Great school. Teachers are awesome and show compassion and really care about your child. The only downfall is that there is relatively no diversity, but overall a great school with a great academic program and Christ - centered education.
