Our Programs
Programs Designed for Growth at Every Stage
Maple Ridge Christian School offers a comprehensive Kindergarten to Grade 12 education designed to meet students where they are and support them as they grow. Each program builds intentionally that lasts — developing strong foundations, guiding students through key transitional years, and preparing graduates for life beyond high school.
Across all grades, learning is shaped by faith, purpose, and a commitment to excellence.
Our Mission
To equip, train, and inspire students to lead a life worthy of their calling to transform the world for the glory of God.
A Life-Giving Purpose
To provide innovative Christian education in a mission-minded community where every student thrives.
Faith That’s Lived, Not Added On
At Maple Ridge Christian School, faith isn’t a separate subject. It’s woven into how students learn, think, create, and serve every day.
Teaching for Transformation
Learning That Shapes Who Students Become
Teaching for Transformation is the educational framework that guides learning at Maple Ridge Christian School. Rooted in a biblical worldview, it invites students to see God’s story unfolding in every subject and equips them to faithfully participate in it.
Through meaningful learning experiences and intentional curricular lesson connections, students develop knowledge, character, and a sense of purpose — discovering how their gifts can serve God and others.

Teaching for Transformation began in Alberta in the early 2000s and expanded through the leadership of the Prairie Centre for Christian Education, which shared the framework with schools across Canada and internationally. Today, Teaching for Transformation is administered by the Centre for Advancement of Christian Education (CACE) at Dordt University. In British Columbia, the Society of Christian Schools leads TfT implementation by supporting schools as they live out their mission and vision through this distinctively Christian framework for learning design.
