Our lower school community joyfully celebrated World Language Chapel, honoring the many languages and cultures represented within our school family. Highlighting more than 42 students and 29 families, the chapel featured a meaningful message from high school Bible teacher Mr. Steltenpohl, who encouraged students to see every person as an image bearer of God. Through words, worship, and a beautiful visual display, we celebrated the rich diversity God has woven into our community and His creativity reflected in every language and culture.

Parents, please mark your calendars for the remaining Senior events for the class of 2026 and be sure to revisit this page as dates, times, and details may be updated.

The MPCS DECA chapter proudly represented our school at the Georgia State Career Development Conference. Our students distinguished themselves not only through outstanding academic achievement, but also as the only Christian school in attendance. Several of our students earned Top 10 finishes in their respective events which qualified them to be able to compete at the highest level of competition at DECA’s International Career Development Conference this April. Congratulations to these outstanding students, and best of luck as they prepare to compete at ICDC!

The Mount Paran Christian School Legal Eagles are headed to the Georgia State Mock Trial Competition after advancing out of the District competition this weekend. With only one bid required for MPCS to field a team at State, the Legal Eagles secured their place among Georgia’s top eighteen programs. Congratulations to the entire Mock Trial program on advancing to State!

As we wrap up the month of February, a month often filled with reminders to show love and kindness to others, this is a great time to remind our children (and ourselves) that caring for our own hearts and minds matter too.

This Friday, March 27, we will be having our annual High School Spiritual Emphasis Day on campus in the Kristi Lynn Theatre. This day is a half day of school, concluding at 12:15 p.m., so please plan accordingly. 

The annual all-school Easter Chapel for the entire student body will be held on March 31, 2026, at 8:05 a.m. in Hughes Gym. This special service will be a time of reflection and celebration of our risen Savior. Parents, friends, and family are warmly invited to join us via livestream at 8:05 a.m. 

We are proud to share that high schoolers, Hannah Humphries and Shelby Wheaton will have their artwork featured in the Capitol Art Exhibit, taking place March 9–11 at the Twin Towers building in downtown Atlanta. We congratulate Hannah and Shelby on this exciting achievement and are proud to see their work representing MPCS! 

As enrollment for the 2026-2027 school year is filling up, there are still a few openings in middle school as well as a few other select grades. Be sure to invite mission-fit friends and neighbors to an upcoming Tuesday Tour at 9:00 a.m. to learn more about the exciting middle school experience for grades 6-8. 

We are thrilled to present the MPCS story on film — a video commemorating the 50-year anniversary of Mount Paran Christian School. This tribute speaks to the legacy and faithfulness of those who came before us — God-appointed leaders who envisioned a school where children could unapologetically worship Jesus and grow in their faith while being challenged and nurtured in the classroom. Watch the video documenting the historical accounts of the incredible legacy of our school.
