Our Vision

Chapel Hill Christian School, in partnership with the home and the Church, exists to inspire students to love God and love one another, to reach their highest potential academically, spiritually, socially and physically, and to be launched into God’s designed future with the skills and spiritual maturity necessary to experience success. Our vision is to create an environment where their God-given uniqueness is celebrated, and they are taught to value a passionate commitment to academic excellence, Biblical worldview, and service for Christ.

Who We Are

Chapel Hill Christian School, a private Christian elementary school of 493 students, offers a rock-solid foundation in the life of each child. Since its founding in 1966, CHCS has understood the relationship of a nurturing environment, traditional values, a quality academic program, and the cultivation of Christ-like character.

Along with the family and local church, the elementary school has the greatest influence on a life of a child. Thus, CHCS’s purpose is to lead children to love the Lord with all their heart, soul, and mind.

CHCS distinguishes itself from other Pre-School through 6th grade academic institutions by its rigorous and well-rounded curriculum, high academic standards, and integration of Biblical values in all of its programs. Students at CHCS typically score at least two years above the national average on Standardized Achievement Tests.

In addition to a strong core curriculum, our technology, fine arts, physical education, foreign language, sports, and missions programs provide for the complete education of each child. Our Bible curriculum is complemented by weekly chapel services. Prayer is an integral part of the daily classroom routine.

Life-long friendships, caring teachers, and a disciplined learning environment are keys to the success of CHCS. Many alumni now serve in full-time ministry.

What We Believe

We believe that teaching academics is only a small part of a child’s total education. Spiritual and moral values, proper attitudes, respect for authority, and the rights and feelings of others are considered of major importance in training children to become mature Christian leaders.

Our source of authority is the inspired word of God as presented in the Old and New Testaments. All teaching must be evaluated in light of that written word.

We believe that parents are the stewards of the children God has given them. The Bible clearly states that it is the parent’s responsibility to “train a child in the way he should go.” (Proverbs 22:6) We are careful that the school never usurps this responsibility. We make every effort to partner with our parents in their parenting role.

Isaiah 40:30-31

“Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.”
