WE EXCEL SO STUDENTS SUCCEED
The core of our program is our dedicated Christian teachers, small class sizes, and a challenging, Christ-centered curriculum. In a safe and nurturing environment, students are encouraged to grow academically, spiritually, and personally. Enrichment opportunities—including art, music, sports, foreign language, technology integration, and our STEAM Lab—provide a well-rounded educational experience. Our special education program also offers support for students with learning differences.
Annual standardized testing consistently shows our students performing above three-fourths of students nationwide, with particularly strong achievement in Mathematics and Reading.

Our Teachers & Staff
ICS believes that character development is an essential part of education and should be both taught in the classroom and modeled by staff. Our Elementary and Middle School teachers are highly qualified, with either a teaching credential or a master’s degree in education, and some faculty members are in the final stages of completing their teaching credential.

Our Parents
We have an active Parent-Teacher Organization that supports the ministry of our school and offers many opportunities for involvement. We love parent engagement and welcome families who choose to participate in a variety of ways, including coaching, transportation, classroom assistance, field trips, and prayer for our school community. Parents are always invited to attend our weekly chapel services.
Our Program
Independence Christian School is organized into four developmental divisions that guide students through each stage of growth: Preschool (18 months-TK), Primary (Grades K–3), Intermediate (Grades 4 & 5), and Middle School (Grades 6–8).
Our Curriculum
Our curriculum has been carefully developed and refined over the past 50 years and consistently exceeds state standards. ICS partners with respected Christian publishers to provide textbooks and resources that present every subject through a Christian worldview while maintaining strong academic rigor.
The academic programs at ICS are designed to challenge students to reach their God-given potential across all subject areas.
In our early childhood and primary classrooms, learning is hands-on, engaging, and developmentally appropriate. Instruction emphasizes foundational skills while encouraging students to explore and experience learning through multiple senses. As students grow, they are increasingly challenged to think critically, with a strong focus on real-world application rather than memorization alone.
The goal of the academic experience at ICS is to develop students who think critically and biblically about the world around them, equipping them to make wise, informed decisions that honor the Lord.
