Bay Shore Christian School

Realizing the need to return to Biblical values in education, the Bay Shore Assembly of God made provision for the opening of the Bay Shore Christian School in September, 1984. Since its inception, our school enrollment has steadily increased, and Godly characteristics have become evident in the lives of our children.

The academic achievement of our students is on grade level or above, as measured by standardized tests. Our teaching staff is highly qualified both academically and spiritually.

The educational materials we have been using are published by a Christian publishing company and include Godly concepts and precepts in all areas of learning.

We believe we are providing a learning environment which is considers the whole child; spirit, mind, and body, and we cordially invite you to come see for yourself what God is doing at the Bay Shore Christian School.

Our Philosophy

Led by the Holy Spirit and the Bible, it is the purpose of the Bay Shore Christian School to provide academic excellence with the consciousness that all truth, including the arts and sciences, is God's truth and that Jesus Christ is the center of all learning and living.

Class size is about 15. This allows individual attention to be given to each child. Teachers are available for students who need extra help.

Admissions/Tuition

Upon receipt of the completed application and registration fee, an interview and academic testing will be arranged. Birth certificates for Kindergarten entrance and transcripts from previous schools are required in order to provide the proper placement of each child.

The Bay Shore Christian School admits, and does not discriminate against students of any race, color, national or ethnic origin.

Our tuition remains among the lowest on Long Island but we have still been able to maintain a high quality program. A current tuition schedule can be obtained from the School office. Please contact the school office at 631-665-5241 or via e-mail.

Personnel

Our staff has been carefully selected to fit in with the ministry of our school. It is important to us to reach each child not only academically but also spiritually. Each teacher is a born again Christian. They are committed and dedicated to our school and our students. Our teachers all have the minimum of a Bachelor's Degree. Some have obtained their Masters. Several have either provisional or permanent certification in New York State.
