Potters House School

The Potter's House School began in 1981 as an elementary school with 12 students and 2 volunteer teachers.
The school was started out of a desire to offer a Christ-centered education to families of all ethnic heritages and income levels.
A middle school was added in 1992, and the high school program begin in 1998.
In addition to equipping our students for economic success, our loving teachers deliver a college-prep curriculum that equips our students to be leaders, godly people of impeccable character, who will use their gifts to make a positive difference for Christ in their family, work place, neighborhoods, and community.
We train professionals who are change agents and thinkers; people who passionately glorify God in the world, who use their talents to bring His kingdom to the workplace.
