The mission of Greenville Christian School is to provide an educational opportunity in a caring Christian atmosphere preparing children spiritually, mentally, and physically to meet tomorrow's challenges.
The school was founded on the conviction that all of life belongs to God and that the present humanistic trend of education is in contradiction to Christian philosophy.
The central purpose of G.C.S. is to provide quality Christian education for each student.
This goal unites every member of the organization, although each has a different responsibility.
Greenville Christian School has chosen the motto "Molding today tomorrow's Christian leaders" because it involves the total program of the school and the whole person, including physical, emotional, mental, social and spiritual aspects.
GCS acknowledges that each student is different; therefore, we feel our curriculum should be flexible enough to meet individual needs, interest and abilities.
It is our desire that all students should be led to acquire self-discipline that will lead them to have respect for authority.
