Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving. Colossians 3:23 (NIV)

A number of years ago, a group of Christian parents in Powell River felt the need for a school that supported the values of the Christian home in every area of the school curriculum. They were able to choose churches that reinforced their family values, but the only way to have a school that would do this was to establish an independent Christian school, one that was committed to their Christian values. In 1993, this group of parents began to develop and implement the Powell River Christian School.

Through hard work, perseverance, and prayer, PRCS opened in September 1994. PRCS includes families from a wide variety of backgrounds who seek to embrace a quality education for their children. This includes high academic and social standards as well as Christ-centered discipleship themes driving instruction. In 2014, PRCS relocated to the Grief Point area and partnered with Community Foundation, the City of Powell River, and countless neighborhood volunteers to construct an outdoor hockey rink.

PRCS continues to focus on growing our special education services to help provide the best quality programs in Powell River. To help accommodate specific student needs, our staff work tirelessly in collaboration with medical staff, specialized professionals, and parents to help meet the individualized needs.
