Red Lion Christian School was established in 1970 as an outreach of the Red Lion bible Church.
Red Lion Christian School offers quality education at an affordable price to families who desire a Christian education for their children.
Red Lion Christian School faculty are born-again Christians who are committed to Christian education and are qualified in their fields.
The philosophy of Red Lion Christian School is that the school should not take the place of the parent, but that it assists the parent in educating children.
We believe the foundation of education is the acknowledgment of God and His plan for each individual life.
This plan begins with salvation. We seek to inculcate the values and biblical principles necessary for moral stability.
When these principles are followed, the school environment is conducive to learning.
We seek to maintain a high standard of academic achievement.
With the two-fold purpose of instilling biblical principles and encouraging academic achievement, we prepare students not only to make a living, but to live so that life can be fulfilling.
