About London Christian School

London Christian Elementary School is a private elementary school located on Clarke Road in the Nelson Park neighbourhood of London, Ontario. Serving students from Kindergarten through Grade 8, the school is designed for Christian parents who seek a community where home, school, and church support one another. The school provides a curriculum where Christ is the foundation, guiding all teaching, learning, decisions, and values. While the school parallels the Ontario curriculum and operates within the guidelines of the Ontario Ministry of Education, it distinguishes itself through a biblical worldview. Students participate in daily prayer, singing, and reading of God's word. The educational experience includes dynamic and engaging learning experiences that foster critical thinking, leadership opportunities, service projects, and cross-grade connections. The school also offers specialized instruction, including music and French. Founded in 1961, the school emphasizes a partnership with parents as integral members of the educational community. The staff consists of dedicated Christians, all of whom are Ontario Certified Teachers (OCT), with some also holding a Christian School Teaching Certificate (CSTC). The leadership team includes Principal Stephen Janssen, Vice-Principal Rebecca Stortz, and Vice-Principal and Grade 1-8 Music Teacher Laura Dearing. The school serves a diverse community, with students representing 30 different congregations and faith communities. Prospective families can schedule a tour or visit to meet with the principal, discuss specific educational needs, and see the building. The enrollment process involves a family application form to ensure a child will flourish within the school community.
