Orangeville Christian School is a private, independent Christian School serving Shelburne, Caledon, Grand Valley and Orangeville as well as rural Dufferin County. It is a vibrant place where children are educated with Christian values and faith in a private school environment.
Since its inception in 1979, there have been many changes. The one factor that remains the same is that the school has caring and fully certified teachers that have a passion for learning and for weaving their personal faith into the way they teach and the way they reach each individual child.
We are more than a school, we’re a community. Parents partner with teachers and others to foster a love of learning, a love of God and creation, and a love for others that will prepare children to go out into the world and continue their lifelong educational journey.
For the past number of years we have been situated on the outskirts of Orangeville on a spacious and pristine piece of land. Our building is home to a small group of students who participate in an excellent liberal arts curriculum infused with new technology – the computer to student ratio in most classes is 2:1. French is taught beginning in Junior Kindergarten and students start taking instrumental music in grade 3. We also boast a full size gym where both Physical Education and extracurricular sports are enjoyed. If OCS could be summarized into one phrase it would be “we care”. Your child will be loved here and their gifts will be allowed to blossom in an environment where every child is regarded as a unique, image-bearing child of God.
