At Ontario Christian, we believe that every aspect of life, including education, is directly related to God the Creator and Redeemer. The spiritual growth of each student is equally important and emphasized at O.C., as is academic excellence. Every teacher on staff is asked to submit a Faith and Learning Statement outlining how they plan to integrate their faith into the classroom curriculum.

Bible classes are held daily at the elementary and middle school levels, while high schoolers are required to take one semester of Bible per year.

High School students attend weekly chapel services in the 650 seat J.N. Albers Chapel &
Fine Arts Center. Teachers and guest speakers encourage students to stand up for their faith.
