DEVELOPMENT
Training a New Generation of Christian Leaders
Since 1965 Christian Unified Schools has been a beacon of faith and truth in Christian education. As a school, we are committed to improving our programs and creating an environment of excellence in everything that we do.
To continue to advance the educational experience of the young people that God has entrusted to us, we need faithful partners that will labor with us in support of our school.
The Annual Fund
The bridge that fills the gap
What is the Annual Fund? The amount we charge our families for each child to attend our school is approximately $500 short of what it actually costs to educate each student. The Annual Fund is the bridge that fills that gap. Financially, it is a difference maker in advancing the future of our school. The fund impacts technology, campus projects, tuition aid for qualifying families, facility upgrades, and many other costs that are required to having a top tier Christian school.

praise from parents & students

This school has been such an immense blessing to my family - the size, the staff, the family culture. We have only been here for three years, and God willing we can keep our kids there all the way through senior graduation! I am beyond glad we made the decision to switch schools and go here. It's worth the drive!

Our family has been so blessed to be a part of Christian Unified Schools. My children attend Christian Elementary East. We are especially blessed with a wonderful and amazing staff! We’ve had nothing but pleasant interactions with the teachers, principal, administrative assistant, and support staff! The teachers throughout my children's school years have been beyond extraordinary. Their love, commitment, and dedication to all their students have been amazing!! We love how God is working in all their lives and ours too. They bring a Godly curriculum into our children’s daily learning. In my experience, issues have been addressed with a biblical view, specifically emphasizing Christ-like behavior. The transition to mobile learning in 2020 was well executed, given that they had to adapt to an unprecedented situation. We are thankful that we were given the option for mobile learning or in-class learning for the 2020-2021 school year. It has been a

We are very blessed and pleased to have chosen Christian Unified! Great academic rigor and smaller learning environments, as well as enrichment and academic programs that positively add to students' educational and spiritual journey!

Wonderful School! Christian Unified is truly a special place. I have been a public school teacher for over 15 years and I personally see the amazing benefit of having your children in the private school system, specifically a Christ-Centered school. Christian is an amazing place to send your children. Christ is the solid foundation embedded in the teaching across all settings. My children are thriving here, and the academic rigor is top-notch. My high schooler is involved in sports and clubs and has made incredible friendships. Teachers develop relationships with the students and are in constant communication with families. The school has a feeling of family and both my children feel at home at Christian.

As alumni of Christian Unified Schools, we are excited to have our kids there too. My wife and I met at Christian High and have lifelong friends from our time there. We have been very happy and impressed with Christian Elementary East. The teachers and staff truly care about the students and their families. Even during COVID in 2020, the faculty and staff were quick to move the students to distance learning and still keep high expectations in order to keep them from falling behind on the year. We are excited to have our kids there and hope they develop the same fond memories, friendships, and experiences that we had.

Great curriculum. Great staff. Office ladies are such a help. It seems the high school has a good handle on balance between individualized instruction and whole class instruction. While the teachers deal with a whole class of 22 students, they don't miss the kid who needs extra attention! I value that students are taught at a high academic level while at the same time are challenged to grow ethically. So important before heading to college - and they run into who knows what. Obviously, they teach from a Christian perspective, but at the same time they don't compromise or water down the scholarship.

I feel so blessed to have my children at this school! Not only are they able to talk about God freely and have the Bible incorporated into each class, but they are personally looked after by the loving staff at the school. This is not just a school, it is a family! This school is tough academically and it has more than prepared my kids for each next step in their academic journey. The athletic department is wonderful and the teams compete against much larger schools throughout the county and do well! I am thankful for this school and what it has done for my children!

This school district is the best! I attended here, sent my older kids here, and I'm excited to be back again with my young kids! The teachers remember and ask about my older children and even pray for them! I cannot over-emphasize the feeling of comfort I have knowing my children have teachers who are invested in them personally. The curriculum is very good--challenging and insightful. I love the fact that the Christian faith is infused into every subject. These schools offer a very good education. Even at the elementary level, the kids are taught art, music and theater; there are many sports choices. My favorite thing the true community feel from elementary through high school! Parents are included and involved. I feel so blessed to have my children attending CUSSD!
