Portland Christian School - Portland Avenue Campus (Closed 2015)

Portland Christian School is not a substitute for the Christian home or Christian parents or congregational activity, but is a supplement.
We believe education concerns the whole nature of man--body, mind and spirit.
To educate and train this mind and this body to the neglect of the spiritual nature is the sad weakness of public education.
It is in man's spiritual nature that he is most like or unlike God who created him to be in His image.
The greatest tool in the hands of man for the education of his spirit is the Bible.
