Christ-Centered Education at Its Core
At Motion Christian School, Jesus is not an add-on—He is at the center of everything we do. We integrate biblical truth into every subject, helping students see the world through a biblical lens and develop a lifelong relationship with Christ.
Daily prayer and devotionals start each morning
Weekly chapel services bring students together in worship
Bible is a core subject at every grade level
Teachers model and mentor students in Christian character
This strong spiritual foundation guides students in developing integrity, compassion, and confidence—both inside and outside the classroom.
Academic Excellence That Prepares for Life
Our students don’t just memorize facts—they learn how to think critically, communicate clearly, and problem-solve creatively. Our curriculum is intentionally designed to be rigorous, engaging, and biblically grounded.
Subjects include:
Language Arts (phonics, grammar, writing, literature)
Math (conceptual understanding, problem-solving, mastery-based)
Science (hands-on, exploratory, and creation-minded)
History (with a biblical worldview)
Bible (memorization, doctrine, apologetics)
Enrichment (music, PE, technology, art)
Class sizes are intentionally small, allowing teachers to provide personalized attention and adapt instruction to meet each student’s needs.

Every child is uniquely created by God—and our approach reflects that.
Teachers know each student by name and nurture both academic and character development
