Our Redeemer's Christian School is a private Lutheran school in Minot, North Dakota. Founded in 1982, the school serves students in preschool through grade 12 and shares a building with Our Redeemer's Lutheran Brethren Church.

History

[edit]

Our Redeemer's Lutheran Brethren Church began a kindergarten program in 1976, which led to the establishment of Our Redeemer's Christian School in 1982 with fifteen students. The school became a K-8 program in 1983 and a high school program was added in 1995.

The school is a member of the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI).

Campus

[edit]

The school has been housed with the church since the program's establishment. A new classroom and gymnasium building was dedicated in May 2001. The administrative offices, classroom space, chapel, and foyer were renovated in 2009.

Curriculum

[edit]

The school places a strong focus on a biblical-based curriculum and teaching staff. Our Redeemer's Christian School was also one of the first schools in the state of North Dakota to implement a 7-12 grade Personal Learning Device initiative, with all students being issued their own tablet.

Extracurricular activities

[edit]

Student activities include band, choir and student congress. The school's athletic teams, known as the Knights, compete in basketball, football (cooperatively with Berthold High School), golf, and volleyball.[2] Students may participate in other sports cooperatively with Minot Public Schools.
