MISSION, VISION, VALUES
A Christian education for your family
At East Central Illinois Christian School, discipleship is our WHY. It is the center of all that is done. Above all, East Central Illinois Christian School promotes a transformational Christian worldview. Jesus’ love, power, and authority inform and guide all practice and community life. This includes leadership, management, teaching, curriculum, and effective governance.
We put the Bible at the center of our process. We ask students to evaluate all they study through the lens of God’s Word. Because God is Truth, He brings a unity of truth to all of His creation. No subject can be taught in its totality if the Creator is ignored or denied.
At ECICS, students can come to know Jesus on a daily basis. We disciple students as complete creations in Him. Spiritual mentoring and modeling, godly self-discipline, and Christ-like treatment of one another are woven into the fabric of each child’s life.
OUR MISSION
To provide children of Christian families with a Christ-centered education that promotes biblical principles, a Biblical worldview, academic excellence, and a lifetime of service to God.
Our vision
Our vision is to produce Christian champions who are well-rooted in Biblical truth. They are doers of the Word, living in their faith and bearing fruit in their circles of influence. Students will excel academically and stand for Christ as they contend for the Faith.
Students will view all aspects of life through the lens of God’s Word (a Christian worldview) to be difference-makers for Christ. They will impact the world for generations to come. East Central Illinois Christian School’s vision for our students is to “know Christ and to make him known.”
