Immanuel Community School

A quick heads-up for South Knox families: fall enrollment at Immanuel is open, and because we cap classes at 12, seats are limited. If you’ve wondered whether a small, trained-teacher school could be the right fit for your child — this is the season to find out. We’ll walk you through everything, including how Open Doors helps families across every income make it work. Message us or book a summer tour.

What makes Immanuel different isn’t a slogan — it’s the math. Twelve kids to a class. Teachers who are trained and present. Families from every income level in the same community, because that’s the kind of place we set out to build. Your child learns that their worth comes from the Lord, not from anyone’s approval. If you’ve been looking for something different in South Knox, come see it.

South Knox parents, here’s something worth two minutes. Open Doors makes Immanuel possible for families who assumed a school like this wasn’t for them. For families who qualify, up to 90% of tuition can be covered and we’ll walk you through the whole thing, no paperwork shame, no pressure. Small classes, trained teachers, kids who are actually known. Want to see it for yourself? Message us to set up a visit.

Meet Ms. Niki Adams — though many of you already know her. She taught 2nd and 3rd grade at Immanuel this past year, and we're glad to share she's continuing with the same grades in '26–'27. In her own words: "This isn't just where I teach — it's where I've seen purpose in education come back to life." What makes the difference? At ICS we care about strong academics and about formation — who our students are becoming, not only what they know. With classes capped at 12, that's how Ms. Adams truly knows each child, including the ones who learn a little differently. As she puts it: "There is more to education than this — and once you see it, you can't unsee it." If you've ever felt that pull, come see what she found. Tours run all summer — schedule one here: https://tr.ee/XziK1XBssv

A note from the team at Immanuel Community School.

Our school exists for a specific reason: there are families in South Knoxville who want their children to have access to a serious education — one that takes academics, virtue, and the mark of God on every child seriously — and who have been told, directly or indirectly, that a school like that isn't for them.

It is for you. That's the entire reason we're here.

We're a different kind of school. Tuition is built on a sliding scale. Our Open Doors program covers up to 90% of cost for qualifying families. Our teachers are trained to actually help children who've struggled in other settings. And every child who walks through our doors is treated like the image-bearer they are.

If you're in South Knoxville and this resonates, the next step is just a conversation. Send us a message.

Memorial Day at Immanuel.

Today is for remembering — the men and women who gave everything, and the families who carry their absence every day after.

Our school exists in a country and a community that was kept whole by their service. We don't take that lightly. We try to teach our kids to recognize what they're inheriting.

A quiet thank-you from all of us at Immanuel Community School.

‼️Only a few spots remain for Fall 2026 at Immanuel Community School.‼️

At ICS, students are known, challenged, and deeply supported academically and spiritually.

This year, our students demonstrated incredible academic growth:

- During the 2025–26 school year, our students demonstrated more than 40% growth in reading and over 30% growth in math through pre- and post-assessment data.
- Nearly 60% of students scored in the 75th percentile or higher on the nationally normed NWEA MAPS assessment.

The proof is in the pudding.

Families choose ICS because of:

- Strong literacy and math instruction
- Small class sizes
- Teachers who truly know their students
- A safe and joyful learning environment
- Christ-centered education rooted in truth, goodness, and beauty

Transportation may be available for families needing reliable transportation to and from school or aftercare.

Openings are still available, but classes are filling quickly.

Apply today to secure a spot for your child before remaining spaces are filled.

Schedule an information call today and learn more about how ICS can nurture your child’s mind and soul while helping them grow into all God has created them to be.
