ACADEMICS

TC Christian delivers a robust academic program crafted to address the diverse needs of all learners, fostering an environment where every student can thrive. Our comprehensive Pre-K through 12th-grade structure ensures a cohesive and streamlined curricular framework that promotes continuity, progression, and holistic growth across the entirety of a student’s educational journey. By aligning our curriculum with our mission to prepare students for a life of purpose, we intentionally integrate faith-based principles and rigorous academics to equip students with the knowledge, skills, and character needed to make a meaningful impact for Jesus Christ. This approach not only supports intellectual development but also nurtures spiritual and personal growth, empowering students to engage with the world as compassionate, thoughtful, and faithful individuals ready to serve and transform their communities for God’s glory.

FAITH

At the heart of our educational approach lies a deep commitment to faith, which serves as the foundational cornerstone woven into every subject we teach, creating a seamless integration of spiritual and academic growth. This intentional blending of faith and learning goes beyond mere instruction, fostering a holistic environment where students are equipped not only with intellectual knowledge but also with the moral and spiritual wisdom to live out a life of meaningful Christian service. By embedding biblical principles and values into each discipline—whether mathematics, literature, science, or history—we empower students to view the world through a lens of faith, encouraging them to apply their learning in ways that reflect compassion, integrity, and purpose. This approach cultivates a sense of responsibility and calling, inspiring students to make a transformative impact in their communities and the broader world, living as faithful stewards of God’s creation and ambassadors of His love.

THROUGHLINES

Throughlines are discipleship habits and practices that shape learners into disciples who actively participate in God’s story by engaging in meaningful work that meets real needs, guided by virtues like justice, kindness, and humility as inspired by Micah 6:8. They provide a vision for students, teachers, and parents to understand how graduates can live as God worshippers, justice seekers, and beauty creators, fostering a desire to transform the world around them. Rather than focusing solely on knowledge, throughlines emphasize forming the learner’s identity and purpose within God’s narrative.
