Delaware County Christian School partners with Christian parents. At least one parent must profess Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior, demonstrate a clear understanding of faith, and desire to abide and confess their belief in our institution's Statement of Faith. We seek families who are committed to the school’s mission and have a passion to live in a community that is united by the Word of God.
