National School Choice Week

Upper Room Christian School is joining together with thousands of schools and educational institutions in celebrating National School Choice Week! Freedom of Choice is a major tenet of our constitution and a major reason for the formation of our great country. It promotes competition between schools as they compete for the tuition of children based on merit and parental preference rather than geographical location.

While we agree that there is a place for "Public Education" we feel that parents should not be financially penalized for choosing "Private Education". School tax money should be distributed back to the families to choose where and how to spend those dollars. As Christians we believe that the mandate to teach our children comes from God and He has given us a scriptural pattern for that education which for us includes the tenets of the Bible.

Here at Upper Room Christian School we have students from all over the world as well as locally and they leave with not only a college prep level education but with God's Word in their hearts so they can fulfill their destiny and dreams.
