❀️ Reason #20:πŸ“‹ Reason: The Heart of the Office
Behind every great school is an office staff that keeps everything moving.

For more than 54 years, the dedicated office staff at Maranatha Christian School has welcomed families with a smile, answered countless phone calls, solved problems, offered encouragement, and worked tirelessly behind the scenes to support our students, teachers, and families.

They are often the first friendly face you see, the first voice you hear, and the steady hands that help each school day run smoothly.

We are thankful for every secretary, receptionist, office assistant who has faithfully served MCS through the years.

Only 7 more days until school begins!
Let's take a look inside our 4th Grade classroom, where Mrs. Sports helps students grow academically, spiritually, and personally.

She has a special gift for presenting lessons on her students' level, making challenging concepts easier to understand while encouraging each child to reach their full potential. She opens each student's imagination as if they are living each Bible or History lesson.

Throughout the year, fourth graders strengthen their reading comprehension, write reports and creative stories, master long division, fractions, and multi-step problem solving, and explore U.S. history alongside exciting science investigations.

Most importantly, Mrs. Sports faithfully points her students to Christ each day, helping them build strong character, develop a biblical worldview, and grow in confidence as they prepare for the years ahead.

Whether your child is entering 4th grade for the first time or moving up with the MCS family, we look forward to welcoming them into Mrs. Sports' classroom. We can't wait to see all God has in store for this exciting year of learning, growth, and discovery!

Our Summer Camp wrapped up the season with one last adventure at Lynches River County Park!

Campers learned about local wildlife, reptiles, and fish. They explored Lynches River and even experienced the park from the treetops on the canopy walk. It was a fun day of learning, exploring, and making memories together. Now our campers are excited and ready to begin their school year. 🍎

✨ Only 9 more days until school begins!✨

As we count down to this exciting new school year, we'd love to introduce you to our 2nd Grade teacher, Mrs. Missy!

Each day in Mrs. Missy's classroom begins with prayer, the pledges, and songs of praise, setting the tone for a Christ-centered day of learning. She is passionate about strengthening her students' reading foundation while creating engaging, hands-on lessons that encourage them to think critically, ask questions, and discover how God's world works.

Mrs. Missy faithfully shares the love of Christ not only during Bible class but throughout the school day. It's not uncommon to hear her class joyfully singing as they walk back from recess, reflecting the joyful atmosphere she creates in her classroom.

With patience, compassion, and grace, Mrs. Missy lovingly challenges her students to grow into confident learners and Christ-like leaders. She encourages each child to do their very best while helping them build a strong academic and spiritual foundation.

Whether your child is entering 2nd grade for the first time or is continuing their journey as part of the MCS family, we look forward to welcoming them into Mrs. Missy's classroom. We are excited to partner with families as we help students grow academically, spiritually, and personally during this important year.

The countdown is on! We can't wait to welcome our students back on August 10 and begin another year of learning, growing, and serving Christ together.

During the summer, Coach Thomas took our Girls Soccer Team and Boys Basketball Team to the BJU Summer Sports Camp in Greenville. It was a great opportunity for our student-athletes to sharpen their skills and build confidence. Most importantly, they made lasting memories, strengthened friendships, and had a wonderful time together. We are proud of the way they represented MCS both on and off the court and field!
