BCCS was founded in 1917 to support the efforts of parents in providing an excellent Christian education for their children. The school now serves nearly 500 students from more than 250 families in preschool through eighth grade. Children are taught by professionally qualified, spiritually mature and highly motivated teachers who also serve as excellent role models. Byron Center Christian School offers a well-rounded education that includes Bible, Math, Science, Social Studies, English, Physical Education, Art, Music, Spanish, and Technology. BCCS is committed to providing a distinctively Christian education. We actively strive to understand each student’s strengths and weaknesses in order to create appropriate learning opportunities that enable them to develop their God-given potential to the highest level. For over 100 years, we have recognized that a Christian school ought to be an extension of the Christian home, reinforcing the faith and values being taught there. We have a specific mission for our school and a clear vision of what we, after faithfully surrendering to the guidance of the Holy Spirit, hope to accomplish in the years your child attends BCCS.

Serving Together,
