Mainstay Christian
Mainstay (n): a person or thing on which something else is based or depends.
​
At Mainstay Christian, Christ alone is our Mainstay. He is the one on which we base our lives and depend upon continually in all we do.
Mainstay education is a beautiful blend of a rigorous engaging private Christian school education with the flexibility of homeschooling.
Mainstay Christian is currently a kindergarten through fifth grade hybrid homeschool program. All students meet from 8:30 - 12:00 on Tuesdays and Thursdays at our new location, the Ministry Annex at Westminster Presbyterian Church on Oregon Pike. The 5th grade day will be extended until 1:00 to accommodate a heavier curriculum load. Sixth grade will be added in the 2024-2025 school year.
There is a Pack and Stay option for all families to use to extend any K-4th grade child's day until 1:00 at a minimal cost. Students will pack their lunch and have extended time with peers in structured and unstructured activities. In addition, the option to add on electives from 1:00 - 2:00 is offered, with opportunities for students to take classes like art, physical education, Spanish, STEAM, home economics and many more.
The remaining three days of the week are spent in at-home learning with all materials and lesson outlines provided by the Mainstay teachers. Parents will love the support of trained and certified educators while being able to have a hands-on role in their child's Christian based education.
