When you change a heart, you change a life. And changing a life just might change the world.
At Colorado Springs Christian Schools, we believe every student, athlete, and staff member should be nurtured, known, and loved the way Christ would love them. More than 800 students learn here, and over 70 percent of them compete in athletics. That means the field and the court are where a great deal of our teaching actually happens: how to lead, how to lose well, how to show up for a teammate on a hard day.
This year, more than 500 CSCS students will compete. Your gift helps make that possible. It funds uniforms and safety equipment across every sport we offer, and a new streaming system so grandparents who can no longer travel, deployed parents, and family across the country can watch their athlete play in real time.
A gift here buys a season for a young person, and makes it visible to the people who love them most. Thank you for partnering with us.
Testimonials
From one of our coaches "We streamed a football game for the first time on Friday. We put the link out three: hours before kickoff, with no promotion at all, and over a hundred friends and family watched. We understand that at least one of them was in Canada.
In the days afterward, five different families told me the same thing in their own words: relatives who had not seen their child compete in years finally got to watch. Grandparents. Family in other states. People who love these kids and simply cannot make the drive.
We say at CSCS that every student, athlete, and staff member should be nurtured, known, and loved the way Christ would love them. That is easy to put on a wall. Last Friday, we watched it happen on a laptop in another country."
From a CSCS alumnus: "The foundation that CSCS gave me is absolutely incredible. Academically, I have a solid base to build on. Forge deep connections with your friends, because they are the ones who will get you through the tough times, and hopefully will be there for you even after you leave high school."
Mission
CSCS exists to provide an excellent education from a Christ-centered, biblical perspective for lifelong service.
Background Statement
Colorado Springs Christian Schools began in 1971 with one conviction: that students deserve Bible-believing, Christ-honoring teachers using curriculum built on biblical principles. Our founder, Jim Wright, saw the need for that in this city, and he was not alone. Fifty-five years later, we are still at it.
Today CSCS serves more than 800 students across our K-12 central campus and our K-5 Woodland Park campus. We offer 16 sports, and more than 70 percent of our students compete in at least one of them. Alongside athletics, students take part in drama, band, choir, and art, and many of our high school courses carry dual credit, so students earn college credit before they graduate.
What holds it together is our staff. They are here because they want to be, and because they believe what happens in a classroom, on a stage, and on a field is worth their whole attention.
We believe the Lord's hand has been on this school from the beginning, and we intend to keep at this work for a long time yet.
