Government Street Christian School is a ministry of Government Street Baptist Church. GSCS was founded in 1972 in Mobile, Alabama. Since then, we have sought to provide a caring environment to nurture our community’s children in their intellectual/academic growth in relationship with Christ. We are excited that you are considering having your child learn with us!
Our motto – We educate for Christ, we learn for Christ, and we live for Christ.
Our aim is to train-up disciples for Jesus Christ…disciples equipped with a comprehensive education where academic pursuits are founded on
- An intense love for Jesus Christ.
- A selfless love and care for others.
- An inspired motivation to learn and excel academically for the glory of Christ.
Why choose a Christian education?
From a Christian worldview education is sacred not secular. Education is not pragmatic nor utilitarian. Education or learning is a sacred activity devoted to exploring, discovering, and applying knowledge of God’s Creational norms while fulfilling the Creation Mandate (Genesis 1:28) Choosing a Christian school is not just an alternative to public school, but a choice intended to nurture children wholly Christian worldview.
This choice will provide your child with:
- A partnership between parents, church, and school.
This partnership is able to reinforce Biblical principles which families are already teaching at home and provide a team effort in your child’s development.
- A holistic education
Our students are provided the opportunity to grow strong in their faith as we provide them the environment they need to develop into mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually complete beings.
- A Christian perspective
A critical aspect of Christian education is that students learn to view life from a Christian perspective, rather than the secular perspective taught in many public schools today. We believe that education is never truly neutral, just as teachers are never truly neutral.
- A Christian environment
Our intent at Government Street Christian School is to provide the highest quality of academic programs in a loving, encouraging, positive, and safe Christian environment.
