Upper Room Christian School Open House

Come to our OPEN HOUSE this Saturday, February 14th at 10am to meet some of our administration and teachers and hear about our school from parents and former students like Daniel Hashim who graduated second in his class from URCS in 2005 with a 94.6 cumulative average. He went on to Rennsalear Polytechnic Institute on a full scholarship. After graduating Rensealear he went on to Rice University where he received a PHD in Materials Science & Nano Engineering.

In 2014 at the age of 27 Daniel was listed in Forbes Magazine’s prestigious 30 Under 30: In Science & Healthcare where they wrote, “Hashim, uses nanotechnology to build futuristic devices. In one case, he used graphene to create what might be a better cathode for ultrafast storage in lithium batteries; in another, carbon nanotubes would be used to heal wounds in people. A carbon nanotube sponge capable of sucking about huge amounts of crude oil has led him to found a company: Carbon Sponge Solutions.”

Daniel presently has 6 US patents for his inventions. He is a Google Scholar with over 20 published articles and over 400 citations.

Christian Education

The importance of Christian Education cannot be overstated! The Bible says to, "train up your child in the way they should go and when they are old they will not depart from it". Here is one of our 1st graders in action filmed in her home by her proud mother.

The Bratcher family has sent 3 of their Children to Upper Room Christian School. This is what her Mom has to say, "That is my daughter in the video. Thank you so much Upper Room Christian School, Dr. Eck and Pastor Dono. My son started in 9th grade and graduated from the school in 2009. My daughter started the same year in 4th grade and will be graduating from 12th grade this June. My last child started in Kindergarten and loves her teachers and the Lord. Upper Room has helped to reinforce all of the values in Christian living as well as provide them with a GREAT education. I want to thank all of the teachers and support staff for the great work you do. Praise God!"
