Spiritual Life
At Dayton Christian Elementary School, we inspire students to hide the word of God in their hearts and to pursue their faith in action. In academics, students memorize a weekly Bible scripture and pray in class. Students also attend a weekly chapel, starting in first grade, and engage in a variety of service activities throughout the year, such as the National Day of Prayer, the Walk for Life, activities around Holy Week, and fundraising for local faith-based non-profit organizations.
Athletic Engagement
Elementary students have opportunities to connect with their peers outside of school through extracurricular athletic clubs. The number of clubs offered varies from year to year with most popular being soccer, cheerleading, basketball, flag football, and wrestling.
