Overview
Zion Christian School is designed to give each child the best possible care outside home.
We do this by providing a Christian setting that encourages the social, emotional, physical and intellectual growth of each child.
Early childhood should be a time of warmth, security, exploration and discovery.
Our program strives to nurture and encourage these qualities in our students.
The goals are accomplished through the children's experiences of a warm and accepting atmosphere of Christian fellowship; here they are not pressured to succeed.
They will enjoy a world scaled to and planned for them.
It is our hope that the children's school experiences will enrich their home life.
The school is sponsored by Zion Lutheran Church and is operated by the School Board of Directors.
Saint Christine School, established in Youngstown, Ohio in 1955, continues the educational mission to lead students to know God and to live the Gospel message each day.
Like our patron Saint Christina, our school continues to proclaim the message of faith in a loving and caring atmosphere which has become an integral part of the southwest corner of Youngstown for over fifty years.
Our school is staffed by committed teachers who are dedicated to its success and that of its students, continuing the ministry of education begun by the Daughters of Charity of St. Vincent DePaul almost fifty years ago.
Our parish is blessed to have a wonderful school with a dedicated staff because it is here that the faith, the morals, and values of our church are taught and lived.
The word of God is proclaimed daily and the call to make new disciples is answered.
Saint Christine School follows the National Catholic Education Association position statement to work for academic excellence and educate students intellectually and socially in our technological and global society.
The state of the art curriculum includes the use of laser disc machines, closed circuit television, digital projectors for classroom presentations and a fully equipped computer lab.
In addition, each classroom has a computer with internet accessibility for student use.
