Prospective Parents

our commitment

KCS-RD is committed to the total Christian educational experience. All families in KCS-RD are Christian. All staff are committed Christians as well. This creates a different culture and attitude within the school and in all the interpersonal relationships at the school. Our aim is to maximize each child's potential in Christ and to provide a godly, ordered and disciplined education for each child.

Our school focus is on the academic, physical and spiritual development of each child. Parental involvement is encouraged. KCS-RD wants loving, caring and involved parents to be actively participating in all aspects of our school.

admissions

KCS-RD looks for the following minimum requirements to be considered for admission:

academic achievement

Academic achievement is a keystone at KCS-RD. At KCS-RD, we believe that each child is capable of an education at the high school matriculation level and we encourage all students to take that educational path.

Many of our former students have gone on to universities and colleges. Our drop out rate is very low. Contact us for a listing of courses offered by KCS-RD.

enrollment/tuition

Koinonia Christian School is a privately operated non-profit school. Like all private schools, it receives funding from Alberta Learning at a rate of about one third of public/separate system schools. Fundraising and tuition are required to meet the minimum operating expenses of the school.

subsidy programs

KCS-RD strives to offer quality Christian education to all children, regardless of income. Subsidy programs to cover the cost of private education are available to low income families who apply and are approved. Subsidy application forms are available and can offer reduced tuition rates as low as $50 per month.

spiritual enrichment

The spiritual and emotional development of each child is important to KCS-RD. Each child receives:

Coordinated extensive Biblical training
Scripture memorization
Spiritual guidance
Regular worship services

Students regularly lead worship for the rest of the school. The high school students also participate in ministry locally and abroad, with mission trips to Mexico and other activities.

computer training

Our school places a high priority on "the basics" but also encourages the use of technology. The school has a full computer lab and internet access is available to the students in all of the classrooms.

physical education training

KCS-RD places a high value in physical fitness and Christ-like sportsmanship. Apart from regular physical education classes, the school also offers:

High school skip trip
Ski day for the elementary and junior high classes
Swimming lessons
Organized league play for basketball, volleyball and badminton
Organized track and field team

music and drama training

The development of confidence and self-esteem has been realized in many students. Our school actively undertakes musical productions, for children of all ages. The younger children do at least two concerts a year while the older children may participate in dramatic productions.

The school is unique in that it offers a full band program for all junior high students. Students have musical retreats and have the opportunity to play with other school bands.

The school regularly undertakes major commercial dramatic productions. Each major dramatic production spotlights our students and encourages parents and staff to participate.
