GRADES K-5
LOWER SCHOOL
Portland Christian Lower School strives to serve the total child. Our faculty, staff, and students consistently Pursue excellence in all that they do. With the use of multiple teaching techniques and activities, our goal is to provide a Challenging Christ-centered curriculum for kindergarten through fifth grade which will meet all student needs. Our Encouraging atmosphere promotes a learning environment in which strong relationships are built. Students consistently receive biblical teaching throughout the day in all subject areas and participate in a weekly chapel to help strengthen and inspire Spiritual growth. It is our desire to use God’s word to “Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” – Proverbs 22:6
