Overview
Immaculate Conception Regional School provides an education rooted in Catholic beliefs and values for the students in Skagit and surrounding counties.
ICRS emphasizes the spiritual, moral, intellectual, and physical development of its students, while fostering community among students, parents, and staff.
We foster relationships both human and divine, knowing that all knowledge and faith find their true origin in God.
ICRS continually strives to be a genuinely Catholic School that deliberately and continually proclaims the Gospel.
We recognize parents as the primary educators of their children.
The dedicated staff of ICRS provides an excellent curriculum in academics, physical education and the arts that stimulates the growth of each individual in confidence, positive self image and personal responsibility.
Staff and parents are committed to preparing our students to live as citizens in service and leadership to their Christian community and the broader world community.
Mt. Vernon Christian School is a not for profit non-denomintional Christian School based on the infallible word of God dedicated to preparing students for service to God and their community.
We have dedicated our purpose to training individuals the way God trained His own Son.
As a school of excellence, we will produce students of influence that will impact their generation and the world for the cause of Christ.
The philosophical basis for our school is the Biblical, God-centered view of man and truth.
Ultimate truth is God's truth as revealed by His Word.
Man, apart from God, is devoid of ultimate truth. Man can find truth through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
Therefore, at Mt. Vernon Christian School, we seek to bring our students into Christian fellowship with God through our integrated Christian education.
Biblical principles are taught in every academic subject. Properly taught, each subject should only reveal to the students more about their Creator and His purpose in each life.
