Welcome to Our Savior's!

Our Savior’s Christian School: Committed to Excellence and Accreditation
At Our Savior’s Christian School (OSCS), we believe that a strong education is more than just academics—it’s about nurturing the whole child. Serving children from Pre-school through eighth grade, our mission is to provide both a quality education and a Christ-centered foundation, preparing students for the future with purpose and faith.

Dedicated to Shaping the Future
Our staff and teachers are more than educators—they are mentors dedicated to fostering both intellectual and spiritual growth. At OSCS, we understand the importance of building meaningful connections with our students and their families. These relationships are key to ensuring a well-rounded and supportive educational environment where each child can thrive.

The Value of Dual Accreditation
We are proud to be accredited by both the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI) and the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools (MSACS). This dual accreditation is a testament to our commitment to excellence, reflecting that our school not only meets but exceeds state educational standards.

Accreditation is an extensive process that evaluates every aspect of a school’s operation, from curriculum and teaching to student services and administration. It goes beyond the standard licensure required by the state of New York, ensuring that we uphold the highest quality in our educational practices. Our partnership with ACSI also includes a unique Biblical worldview component, which is integral to our mission of providing Christ-centered education.

Why Accreditation Matters
Accreditation demonstrates that OSCS is consistently meeting rigorous academic and operational benchmarks. This process ensures that our students receive a well-rounded education in a safe, nurturing environment. With dual accreditation, our families can be confident that their children are receiving an education that is both academically sound and spiritually enriching.

Join Our Community
At Our Savior’s Christian School, we are committed to shaping the future through a Christ-centered, high-quality education. We invite prospective families and stakeholders to connect with us and learn more about how OSCS can make a lasting impact on the lives of our students.

 

Our Principal

Mr. John Richardson

In June 2018, Mr. Richardson joined Our Savior's Christian School as principal, bringing with him a wealth of experience from years of service in Christian education, in Erie, Pennsylvania. From the moment he stepped into this leadership role, his vision was clear: to cultivate a school that not only excels academically but also upholds a strong biblical worldview in every aspect of its curriculum and culture.

Mr. Richardson’s approach to leadership is intentional. He is passionate about crafting an environment where students are challenged to reach their full academic potential while being deeply rooted in their Christian faith. Under his guidance, Our Savior's Christian School has thrived, fostering a culture that values excellence in education intertwined with spiritual growth.

But Mr. Richardson’s influence extends beyond academic programs. His heart for mentorship is evident in how he leads both students and staff, walking alongside them in their spiritual journeys. Whether in the classroom or during one-on-one conversations, he consistently encourages others to recognize their God-given potential and step boldly into their calling.

Since his arrival, the school community has felt the positive impact of his leadership. With a focus on nurturing both the mind and spirit, Mr. Richardson has guided the school toward becoming a place where students not only grow intellectually but also thrive as followers of Christ.

Student Safety and Security Protocol

The safety and security of our students is our highest priority. All visitors must check in at the main office, where they will sign in and state the purpose of their visit. To further ensure safety, our building is equipped with security cameras, and we continuously strive to enhance our safety measures. Students may only be released to individuals listed on the parent authorization list, and proper identification will be verified before release.

 

Academics

Our Savior’s Christian School is proud to be accredited by both the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI) and the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools Commissions on Elementary & Secondary Schools. This dual accreditation is a testament to our commitment to maintaining high standards in education, which we ensure through continuous school improvement initiatives.

Part of our strategy for excellence includes the regular administration of achievement tests and state-mandated exams. Consistently, our students have demonstrated outstanding performance, reflecting the strength of our academic programs.

In keeping with our goal to provide advanced opportunities for students, we offer Regents exams in Earth Science and Algebra 1 to our 8th graders. Additionally, students take the Checkpoint A Proficiency Exam for Spanish I. For those who qualify, these courses provide the opportunity to earn up to three high school credits before they even begin their high school journey.
