Greenville Christian School is a small, non-denominational, private school in Greenville, Mississippi. Greenville Christian School offers pre-school, elementary, middle, and college preparatory education to Greenville and the surrounding areas.

History

Greenville Christian School was formulsted in the minds of concerned Christian parents from Christ Wesleyan Methodist Church. The school opened in late August, 1969, at the Greenville Hotel with thirty-seven students in grades one through nine.

In 1972, the new facility at Highway 1 south was completed, and the fall classes began. The school grew rapidly, and increased enrollment necessitated additional classrooms.

In 1979, the school was recognized under the governing body of the Greenville Christian School Parents' Association.

The school is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools and the Mississippi Private School Association.

Clubs and Organizations

The National Beta Club is an honorary society that recognizes academic excellence. Greenville Christian has a very active Student Council that provides students with the opportunity to volunteer and make Greenville a better place. There is also The Fellowship of Christian Students for those interested in religion. Students also have the option of participating in competitive academic teams, such as Quiz Bowl.
