What We Believe
We believe that God is the creator of all things. We believe that Jesus is the Son of God. We believe God inspires and guides us through His Spirit and His holy word, the Bible. We believe God created mankind, male and female, in His own image to fulfill His purpose which is to glorify Him. Further, we believe in the necessity of a strong bond between the Lord’s Church, the Family, and the School in the education of the child. The strength of that bond will allow us to help each child realize his or her greatest potential, to develop a love of learning, to think and act creatively, and to interact compassionately with others. We consider the opportunity to teach children to be a sacred trust, which we accept with fervor and joy.
Our Beginning
We began as the Roy J. Morris Christian Academy with a Preschool and Day Care in 1981, founded by members of Eastside Church of Christ. Our name was changed to Pikes Peak Christian School in 1984. The first elementary grade was added in 1985, the first middle school grade in 1989, and the high school in 1999. Our first senior class graduated in May 2003. We are dually accredited by the National Christian School Association (NCSA) starting in 1994 and by Cognia starting in 2012.
