Christian schools are wonderful faith-filled communities, where children are cared for and thrive.
Activists are working tirelessly to misrepresent Christian schools and stop them from influencing the next generation for Christ.
They will not stop. They oppose biblical truth.
People like you who are, or have been, the beneficiaries of Christian schooling should speak up now to defend Christian schools. If you don’t, the mission of Christian schools could be thwarted. They may even be shut down.
You have the right to choose an education for your child that reflects your Christian beliefs. This is a key part of the right to freedom of religion that is enshrined in international law.
If you, your child, or grandchild has had a positive experience at a Christian school – recently or in the past – please share a few words to say so.
Thank you for standing up for our Christian schools!

A wonderful school family with very much an open-door policy to parents with both the principal and teachers alike. The Christian ethic was taught throughout all curriculums as a way of life. For many of the teachers, their jobs were vocational, and it showed. When my step-daughter died of a tragic accident many years ago, the class teacher asked our daughter's classmates to each make a love-card for her in remembrance of her step-sister. Parents made meals for us and grieved silently with us, as did our Church members. This school wasn't just educational, it was like an extended family network.
I did my entire schooling in a Christian environment, and it was wonderful. I was taught the value of, and responsibility to engage all people with respect, integrity and servanthood. I was encouraged in my beliefs and saw how they should benefit those around me. I received an excellent education and benefitted from many mentoring and personal development opportunities provided.
We have two children at this school and we love it. We are also active with the church. It is fantastic to have a school with values that much our own faith. Our children love going to school.
It's wonderful to see our grandchildren being taught respect in our community for all people, particularly our leaders. They are also being taught in a safe environment and learning the truth of God's word and how to have hope in this confusing world. Doing away with the Christian freedom of these schools will result in further deterioration of the foundations of our community.
My wife and I were very happy to send our children to GRG because of its commitment to social justice activities, especially its partnership with World Vision. My children have found the teachers to be very encouraging, even participating in extracurricular activities with the young people when they did not have to.
