Congratulations to our phenomenal student-athletes who signed to take their skills to the next level.

We are proud to present the Mount Paran Christian School Distinguished Athletic Alumnus of the Year Award to Brad Welty, Class of 1990. Brad had this to say about receiving this award “This award means so much to me! I've simply tried to serve where I felt God called me and do the work faithfully. While I’ve never focused on recognition, it’s incredibly meaningful to have those years of hard work acknowledged by a school that has meant so much to me.”

Mount Paran Christian School is proud to announce a new multi-year partnership with Nike, Inc. and BSN Sports, strengthening its commitment to providing premier athletic gear and branded apparel for student-athletes, coaches, and the MPC sports community. Under this agreement, Nike will serve as the official apparel and athletic equipment provider for Mount Paran Christian athletics, while BSN Sports, a leading distributor of sportswear and equipment, will serve as our brand provider moving forward.
