CHRIST IS THE WAY
WHY CENTURION?
-
CHRIST-DRIVEN
“I am the way, the truth and the life.”
John 14:2-7 ESV
Centurion Christian Classical School seeks to glorify Christ in every subject and every aspect as we endeavor to pass on the faith to the next generation. Apart from Christ, we cannot have salvation and an education without Christ is no education at all. -
CLASSICAL
“Thus says the LORD: “Stand by the roads, and look, and ask for the ancient paths, where the good way is; and walk in it, and find rest for your souls.”
Jeremiah 6:16 ESV
“Theology unifies the curriculum; it provides a framework for the liberal arts and sciences, and the philosophies that unify them. In fact, the very notion of unity itself is derived from theology: all things were created by God and by him all things continue to exist”SOURCE: The Liberal Arts Tradition, Kevin Clark & Ravi Scott Jain, https://books.apple.com/us/book/the-liberal-arts-tradition/id706134283
Augustine famously said, “all truth is God’s truth.” Classical Christian liberal arts education is about the pursuit of truth and a liberation from man-centered thinking by seeking God-centered thinking in all subjects. By walking in this “standard” or “classic,” we have an education that is truly for free-thinking young men and women.

AFFORDABLE
“And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children.”
Deuteronomy 6:6-7 ESV
The average cost of private school tuition in California is $16,000. While the Centurion model removes the monetary barrier to an excellent Christian classical education, there is still a cost: obedience. We want to serve fathers and mothers who diligently desire to obey God’s mandate to educate their children. Therefore, we only charge a curriculum fee of $100 per month for materials. We rely upon the provision of Christ’s local and universal church to support this mission field. Our teachers, staff, and volunteers serve in the mission field of the family. -
DISCIPLESHIP
“Go therefore and MAKE disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, TEACHING them to observe all that I have COMMANDED you.”
Mathew 28:19-20
We serve under the authority and at the pleasure of Christian fathers and mothers who want to obey the Lord in this blessed command. Children must be trained and shown the wonder, truth, goodness, excellence, and beauty of Jesus Christ, who is THE TRUTH.

LOVE CHRIST • LOVE CHILDREN • LOVE TO LEARN
We are looking for passionate believers who love Christ, love children, and love to learn.

We are seeking TK-4 teachers for the 2024/2025 school year. ALL Centurion teachers MUST pass a LifeScan background check.
Once we become a K-12 school, we will seek ACCS Accreditation and ACCS Teacher certification.
GIVERS
CHURCHES • VOLUNTEERS • DONORS
This work requires a true communal Christian effort. Whether you are a pastor, elder, or member of a local church that is able to dedicate funds and/or facilities, or perhaps you are an individual, couple, or family blessed to be in a season of giving, we invite you to partner with Centurion.
Our donors see what we see: education is primarily about the formation of the soul. As a CENTURION donor, you are contributing to God’s work in the discipleship and development of our youth. This school will flourish only through God’s providence and people’s generosity; without it, CENTURION cannot exist. If you have a specialized gift idea for CENTURION, please call or email us.

WHAT IS CLASSICAL CHRISTIAN EDUCATION?
TRUTH • GOODNESS • BEAUTY
T H E R E S U L T S
CONTRAST BRINGS CLARITY, AND THE RESULTS OF THE GOOD SOIL REPORT MAKE IT CLEAR THAT CLASSICAL CHRISTIAN EDUCATION IS THE BEST CHOICE FOR CHRISTIAN FAMILIES.
This COMPARATIVE STUDY conducted by Cartas and the University of Notre Dame produced a body of research which seems to confirm what history has repeatedly demonstrated—classical Christian education can influence the course of a home, a community, or a nation. See the results for yourself.

FOR KELLY
1969-2023
We praise our sovereign Lord for KELLY KAGOSHIMA, who the Lord brought home on July 1st of this year. Kelly died due to ALS, but she lived in the light and hope of Jesus Christ. Her devotion to Centurion as an advocate, donor, and prayer supporter will remain with us always. Kelly was a dedicated supporter of what the Lord is doing here at Centurion. She believed in Classical Christian Education and our missionary teacher model, as well as the importance of offering an affordable choice to Christian families in our community. But most importantly, Kelly believed in the Christ-driven model that defines Centurion.
Kelly’s LAST QUILT, which she made by hand and gave to Centurion for a special fundraiser, has been gifted back to the school, where it will serve as a reminder of the beautiful saints God has sent our way. This lovely piece of art will always prompt us to remember just how gracious and wonderful a Savior we have. May God bless the Kagoshima family as they grieve and press on toward the upward call of Christ. Our Lord works to encourage and embolden the saints through people like Kelly, and her legacy of loving others abundantly will live on in all who have been touched by her life.
Welcome home, Kelly. Welcome to the celestial city.
