The Plymouth Christian Schools (now an independent corporation) continues to be jointly operated through an ongoing love for our children’s education and a zeal for their eternal welfare. The elementary school sustained a fire in April of 1987, and received two more additions dedicated by our pastor in January of 1988 and October of 1990. Presently the schools, from pre-K through Grade 12, have more than five hundred students.
