School Philosophy & Day in the Life

School Philosophy and Mission

"The Kalamazoo Christian School Association's preschool program is designed to stimulate the social, emotional, physical, intellectual and spiritual development and growth of each child in a loving, caring environment. See the following for more information.Kalamazoo Christian East Elementary is established and operated by Christian families in obedience to God's command to "nurture your children in the ways of the Lord." God instituted the family and gave to parents the responsibility for instruction so that His promise of redemption would be passed throughout the generations.
Our educational aim is to place God first in the child's life. The whole child is educated to be Christian in all the God-created aspects of his/her life; spiritual, mental, physical, and social/emotional. As a child learns each must come to know, to enjoy, and to serve God according to his/her God-given abilities. Christian education is for the Christian life. This is Christ-centered education."
