The program at Maranatha is designed to meet the spiritual, emotional, and educational needs of every student attending.
Maranatha offers a child care center starting at toddlers (12 months) up to pre-kindergarten, a pre-school program, a full-day kindergarten program, elementary school, and a junior and senior high school. The beautiful campus is surrounded by grass, trees, and farm animals and promotes a safe, secure, and relaxed atmosphere. We emphasize traditional academic excellence with a strong emphasis on college prep in the high school, including Advanced Placement courses in most areas. All areas incorporate a non-denominational Christ-centered educational philosophy.
Maranatha is designed to meet the spiritual, emotional, and educational needs of every student attending, regardless of race, color or national origin. We encourage students to develop to their fulle
st potential in all areas. We strongly support families; therefore, we promote activities that are designed for the healthy enjoyment, spiritual welfare, and the education of the entire family, on and off campus. We endeavor to provide an environment in which children are protected and allowed to enjoy the wonder of childhood. As they grow and mature, topics are presented from a Christian worldview - always emphasizing the Scriptural plan, order, and promises we have as children of God. It is our desire to present the world with godly, wise, positive, and self-controlled young adults as they exit our halls of learning.
The curriculum used at Maranatha is traditional and Christ-centered in its philosophy, and is of such high quality that our stude
nts consistently score well above the national norm on the annual achievement tests.
Maranatha is a member of the National Honor Society, and each year inducts 10th-12th grade students with GPA’s of 3.5 or higher. Our Christian school does not exist for academic excellence only, but for the sake of fulfilling God’s commands concerning Biblical education, as found in Deuteronomy 6:7; Proverbs 22:6; and 2 Timothy 3:15-17. We believe it is imperative to follow a curriculum that is based in the Word of God.
The elementary school has a physical education program as well as art, and music (including Elementary Honors Choir for grades 3-6). Every grade level presents music performances. We have an on-campus piano instructor and bi-yearly recitals. The junior and senior high offers the electives of choir, speech and drama, art, yearbook, computer, drafting, cooking/sewing, and foreign languages. Students are given the option to compete each year in spelling bees, speech meets, art competitions, and the CACS Music Festival/Academic Competition held each March.
Our junior and senior high school students have the opportunity to participate in extra-curricular activities that are sponsored by Student Council. Students celebrate “Homecoming” each fall and winter with various fun activities and a special banquet. There is also a formal banquet in the spring.
