Somewhere along the way, school stopped feeling like family. Classes got bigger. Values got quieter. Children became numbers.
Not here. For nearly 30 years, Orleans County Christian School has done education the way it was meant to be done: small classes where teachers actually know your child, the time-tested Abeka curriculum taught from a Biblical worldview, and a school family, backed by eight local churches, that partners with you instead of working against you. Because your child's education should build on what you're teaching at home, not tear it down.
The Abeka Curriculum
We teach with Abeka, the trusted Christian curriculum used by thousands of schools and homeschool families across America for over 50 years. Traditional phonics, math fact mastery, spiral review, and rigorous academics, all built on the foundation of God's Word. If your family has homeschooled with Abeka, your child will feel right at home from day one.
A True School Family
Every subject, from mathematics to music, history to home economics, is taught with the knowledge that God created us and gave us the universe to explore and enjoy. Sponsored by eight local churches, OCCS is an extension of Christian family life, where students are known, loved, and held to the highest standards of character.
Come see the difference for yourself.
