2025-2026 Spiritual Theme: Abide In Christ

Our 2025-2026 school-wide spiritual theme is Abide in Christ based on John 15:4-5: 

“Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.”

 We will explore this theme in devotions, chapels, and through class content, looking to understand how spiritual disciplines can help us to abide in Christ

The mission of Eastern Christian School’s PTO is guided by 1 Peter 4: 8-11

“Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.”

We seek to serve our Eastern Christian community by developing a close connection between school and home through encouraging parent involvement. 

Our goal is to help build strong connections with EC families, participate in our children’s school experience, and offer our support to the dedicated team of teachers and staff who strive to deliver a quality, engaging, Christian education for our children.

We believe it is important to foster collaboration and communication between parents, teachers, and students to ensure the success of the school community as a whole.
