Hampden Christian School, Baltimore

Hampden Christian School provides high quality academic education with mastery of the basic subjects in the forefront. Since holistic development is our goal, we want to educate not only a child’s brain, but nurture his heart, develop his character and involve his body as well. We believe that this type of discipleship happens best in community. We will do everything possible to nurture a close relationship between child and teacher. With this in mind, our classes will be kept small (a maximum of 12). Our teachers are committed Christians who exemplify Christian ethics in every aspect of their lives. These stellar members of our staff want to touch children’s hearts as they seek to shape the character of each student according to his/her God-given gifts. Just as the act of teaching is the proof of having learned something, so the act of service is a product of holistic development. We believe this service happens simultaneously with the act of learning. Throughout the school year, we expect our students to be positive contributors within both the community and the classroom. On a monthly basis, students will also participate in school-planned community service projects such as community gardening, singing for the elderly in our community, or clean-up projects.
