School Notes
- Shekinah Christian School is uniquely positioned to partner with your family in providing a quality education from a Biblical worldview. The Shekinah difference is found in our strong sense of community, despite enrolling students from over 30 different local churches from areas around Marysville, London, Hilliard, Urbana, and of course, Plain City. We currently enroll students in K-12th grades and offer a variety of athletic programs that compete in the OHSAA and Mid Ohio Christian Athletic League (MOCAL) as well as a growing fine arts program. Our elementary students also have access to music, foreign language, and art instruction.
- We also focus on intentional Biblical discipleship through weekly chapels with student-led worship and a variety of speakers. Additionally, all students participate in daily Bible classes.
