- Hilltop Christian School holds that Christian Education is a directive from God for the Christian family. We believe in the growth process of the total person. We strive to promote the student's spiritual, academic, social, and physical growth. Students should be grounded in Biblical moral values, patriotism, citizenship, moral character, and superior academic knowledge. Hilltop Christian School adheres to lead children to a personal knowledge of Christ as savior, to prepare children spiritually by instilling in them a love for the Lord Jesus Christ and a sense of responsibility to be all God wants them to be, to prepare children to serve God effectively, to encourage children to think clearly, logically, and independently; to offer instructional programs that meet children's academic needs; and to achieve mastery in the tools of learning and communication.
