Overview
Lamont Christian School's mission is "Learning the wonder and order of God's world and His ways".
Lamont Christian School offers Preschool, PreK, and Kindergarten through the 8th grade.
Lamont Christian graduates have made very successful transitions to Christian, private, and public high schools.
Besides the core academic subjects, Lamont Christian teaches physical education, art, music, computer, STEM, and Bible classes.
Lamont Christian is able to offer resource room support for small groups of students alongside a regular classroom inclusion program.
Because we believe that every child is gifted by God with special talents and with special needs, we seek to accentuate each student's strengths while bolstering their weaknesses.
We aim to provide a Christ-focused, challenging academic education for as many children as we can possibly serve.
The school was started in 1915 by parents committed to a quality, Christ-centered education.
Allendale Christian School provides an environment where children learn to recognize God as creator and sustainer of the universe and learn values based on absolute truth - the Bible.
Our dedicated Christian teachers and staff supported children in learning.
Here children develop an appreciation for praise as expressed through devotions, music, and prayer.
They are encouraged to develop a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and are equipped to live a life a service to God and others.
The role of Allendale Christian school is to form a partnership with parents to lead covenantal children toward a deeper understanding of the Lord and ultimately a commitment to a personal relationship with our God.
By modeling the Christian walk, integrating faith in curricular materials, and leading students in the Word of the Lord, teachers aim to bring students closer to the Lord.
The curriculum offered at ACS is taught from a Biblical perspective.
In all subjects and grades there exists an integration of faith and learning which allows students to better realize God is not only Creator, but Sustainer of every aspect of life.
Teachers consciously plan their lessons to show how God has impacted the world in which we live.
