Welcome to Christian Life School
Christian Life School is a Class 1 Independent School that welcomes students from Kindergarten through Grade 9 from a wide variety of churches in the area. As the only faith-based school in Fort St. John, we provide a quality Christ-centred education that promotes the growth of the whole individual. Our small size also allows more meaningful engagement with parents and students on their educational journey.
Why You’ll Love It Here
Christian Life School is a fantastic place for both new and experienced teachers. We love working with creative teaching ideas, value constant feedback and provide a tight-knit educational family.
Class sizes are small – generally between 12 and 18 students – which means less marking and more opportunities to work directly with students. Teachers are also supported by EAs in various settings.
One of the great blessings of working at Christian Life School is the opportunity to live out your faith and to allow your faith to be part of your daily teaching.
What We Value
Mission: Christian Life School is a caring and safe haven that strives to disciple and educate students in a Christian worldview.
Vision: Centered on Christ, we see Christian Life School as a lighthouse in the community, which attracts students and teaches them to be salt in the world.
What Makes Us Unique
As a Christian school, concepts are presented from a Biblical point-of-view when appropriate. Morning devotions, Bible classes and chapel are classified as locally developed courses.
We attempt to include local pastors as well as ministries that come to our community and Christians willing to share with our students and staff during these times. French is taught in grades five through eight.
Teachers have ongoing opportunities for professional growth, from development days to leading school projects that reflect their individual gifts and backgrounds.
Our School Community
Christian Life School is a caring, safe haven that strives to disciple and educate students through a Christian worldview.
Small class sizes offer more opportunities for teacher involvement and strong student engagement. Teachers provide both student-centered and teacher-directed learning, recognizing that balance and flexibility in instruction are essential to supporting students across the learning spectrum.
History, Heart and Adventure
Fort St. John is one of the largest cities along the Alaska Highway and the oldest European-established settlement in present-day B.C.
Known as “The Energetic City,” it’s a vibrant, family-centered community with a go-getter spirit and a large population of young families.
Outdoor enthusiasts will enjoy year-round activities—hockey, curling, skating, cross-country skiing and winter walks in the colder months, and hiking trails and long summer evenings in the warmer ones. The city also features a new hospital, sports complex and all the essential services.
