JKCS Graduation

Twelve students will graduate from JKCS this June. Parents, grandparents, supporters, friends, and neighbours are invited to share in this joyful occasion. It takes place on Wednesday, June 18 at 7:30 in People’s Church. Reverend Ken Vanderwal will be the guest speaker. The theme chosen this year is based on Revelations 4:8b: “Our Holy God is for Always”.

Work Morning!

On Saturday, June 28, there will be a work morning at JKCS from 8am - 12pm. We need volunteers! Come prepared to help clean the back shed, transplant shrubs and other general maintenance. Of course, donuts and refreshments will be provided!

Grass is Greener Here

As spring takes hold the grass is growing which means the lawns at the school need maintaining. We realize this is sometimes an inconvenience, but it is an opportunity to keep costs down and to contribute to the community effort of keeping up the school. The schedule was attached to the Knox Talks a few weeks ago. If you cannot do it the assigned week, please arrange a swap or else make the call to Schenk's.

Fiftieth Anniversary for JKCS!

When JKCS opened its doors to students on Tuesday, September 4, it did so for the 50th year. For half a century, John Knox Christian School has been offering Christ-centred education to students of Lambton County. Over the years the school has maintained notable academic standards meeting and exceeding Education Ministry standards while offering a well-rounded education stressing spiritual growth, sound civic values, social interaction, along with an active sports, music, and enrichment programme. We celebrate God's blessings to our school community throughout this year.

International Programme

John Knox Christian School has enrolled two young Korean students for this school year. Many students from overseas choose Ontario as a good place to learn English as a second language. We are pleased to offer this service and make it available to other families considering this option. It is a wonderful opportunity for student growth - that is, for both visiting students and the host students.
