Welcome to Pacific Point Christian Elementary School!

What an honor it is to have your family either considering or already a part of our Pac Point family. We truly believe the Lord leads the path that brings you to our school and we are thrilled to be partnering with you. 

Our mission at Pacific Point is to provide high quality Christian education, for preschool through 12th grade students, in the south-county area. We strive to prepare both your child’s heart and mind for their future. We recognize that you are entrusting us with your child, and we look forward to coming alongside you, as parents/guardians, to pour into their life.

At our Elementary campus, students in Kindergarten through 5th grade benefit from a Christ-centered, academically rigorous curriculum designed to nurture both spiritual growth and intellectual development.

For Math and Science, we use the Bob Jones University Press (BJU Press) curriculum, which is written from a Biblical worldview and promotes critical thinking, problem-solving, and a strong foundation in scientific and mathematical concepts.

Our English Language Arts and History instruction is based on the Abeka curriculum. Abeka offers a traditional, phonics-based approach to reading and language arts, with a strong emphasis on grammar, spelling, vocabulary, writing, and penmanship. In History, students explore events from a Christian perspective, learning how God’s hand has been evident throughout time and in the shaping of nations and cultures.

For Bible instruction, we incorporate resources from both ACSI (Association of Christian Schools International) and Deep Roots.

  • ACSI Bible curriculum focuses on helping students develop a personal relationship with Jesus Christ while gaining a solid understanding of Scripture, Christian doctrine, and biblical character.

  • Deep Roots Bible curriculum emphasizes spiritual formation and discipleship, equipping students to apply Biblical truths in their daily lives and grow in faith, wisdom, and compassion.

In addition to these core academic areas, all students participate in PE, Music, and S.T.E.A.M. classes, providing opportunities for physical development, creative expression, and hands-on exploration in science, technology, engineering, arts, and math.

I encourage you to come join us on Thursday mornings at Chapel. Kindergarten through 2nd grade is at 8:30am. 3rd through 5th grade is at 9:30am. You will not be disappointed when witnessing, first hand, the joy of the Lord displayed in these precious children. 

Proverbs 16:9 says, “A man’s heart plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps.” God has big plans for your child and your family. On behalf of all the Elementary staff I can confidently say we are dedicated to following God’s plan right along with you. 

In Christ,

OUR PRINCIPAL

and provide for those who grieve in Zion— to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the LORD for the display of his splendor.

Isaiah 61:3 (NIV)
