Welcome to Jenison Christian School! JCS is committed to embracing our community with the love of Christ, fostering academic growth that is immersed in Christ, and empowering God's children for a life of service in His kingdom. For over 90 years, we have been providing a top-quality education focused on Christ in the greater Jenison community. I am honored and excited to be the principal of a building that is rooted in God’s word and has a rich history of educational success and spiritual development.
Jenison Christian offers a preschool through 8th grade program that partners with many sources. We are committed to and value our partnerships with parents, local churches, and alumni in our area. Through these relationships, we are confident that our students will receive the very best Christian education that will allow them to go into our world and make a difference for Jesus Christ.
One of the richest blessings at Jenison Christian School is our staff! We have a highly collaborative, committed, and passionate team that loves the Lord and strives to provide the very best education we can for all of our children at JCS. Our staff is devoted to our community and their commitment to our families goes well beyond the classroom and school building.
On a personal note, my wife Lea (RTI Director at JCS) and I have been blessed with 4 children, all of whom attend JCS! We worship at Messiah CRC and love being involved in the church life there. If we are not at JCS, we are probably at a sporting event! We love to watch and coach our children in the many sports that they participate in. As a family we like to spend time at family cottages, traveling, and cheering on the Michigan Wolverines.
Thank you for your interest in Jenison Christian School, but more importantly, we appreciate your prayers and support for the work we do here every day!
Working together for Him,
Joe Oosterheert
