What is Christian Programming?
Christian Education provides families with the opportunity to have their children educated from a Biblical worldview. The Grande Prairie Christian School nurtures and helps guide the students on their educational, physical and spiritual journeys.
About Grande Prairie Christian School
Grande Prairie Christian School is a Kindergarten to Grade 9 school with a student population of 310 and a staff of 24. It is a faith-based alternative program being offered within the Grande Prairie Public School District. The school provides strong Christian instruction integrated into a diverse selection of academic courses with prayer as a key focus in every class.
We are a Christian school of choice within the Grande Prairie public school system that focuses on both the spiritual and academic growth of our students. We are unreservedly committed to providing Christian education based on Biblical principles while still striving for academic excellence in completing the Alberta Education program of studies.
In addition, we offer a strong variety of extra-curricular programs. In athletics, we field competitive teams for basketball, volleyball, badminton, cross-country running, soccer and track and field. We are also proud of our band program which has demonstrated excellence in performance.
We work to achieve our motto of "pursuing personal excellence and Christ-like character" in preparing our students for lives spent serving God, and glorifying Him through excellence in their future endeavours.
