WHO WE ARE
We are Shiloh Community School, a Christ-Centered, Classical, Private School. It is our wholehearted belief that knowledge is power, but even deeper, that children with knowledge are powerful. We stand with assurance that children have God-given passions and we desire to help them grow into those passions with excitement and joy. In teaching and learning, we see the whole child, the story behind the child and believe that their season determines their pace, which is of the utmost importance. Each child is born with a love for learning, but there are things that try to take that love away, so we are committed to evolving and renewing what’s being done here to help them love to learn. In our eyes, each of them are just small adults waiting for encouragement, guidance, love and a book to help them fill the shoes God created them for. Discipling their hearts to fulfill their purpose while here on earth and preparing them for eternity is the greatest privilege we’ll ever have. Through a balance of play, worship, academics, reading and conversation-it all can point to the God of the universe and be for His glory.

Our Learning Model
At Shiloh Community School, we believe in the Classical and Traditional teaching methods, while relying heavily on books to teach us in every subject. We believe that all subjects point to God and that God’s character weaves all throughout the subjects we will learn. We're convinced that repetitious memorization, songs, hands-on play, writing, and simply doing life together are how the knowledge that we impart stays with them. Our goal isn't for them to merely pass tests; we want our students to be lifelong learners and enjoy it. Our classrooms utilize tools like manipulatives, games, books, and anything we can put in our hands to help us understand the material better.
Rich Curriculum
Our classically based curriculum includes: Shurley English, Saxon Math, Apologia Science, and Notgrass History. Our Bible Education curriculum is Answers Bible Curriculum. We desire to teach subjects in a way that students can not only retain the information, but learn it in a way that they can relate it over and over again in everyday life. These curriculums do just that.
