School Overview
Our Mission Statement
Our mission is to develop students who are committed disciples of Jesus Christ through an excellent, comprehensive, Biblically integrated educational program.
Core Values
Core Value: Biblically-Integrated Educational Program
Belief: We believe scripture is the word of God, infallible, and the basis of all truth. (2 Timothy 3:16)
Application: We integrate the Bible into all aspects of the educational program and extracurricular activities.
Core Value: Developing Disciples
Belief: We are called to make disciples of all people. (Matthew 28:18)
Application: We clearly present the gospel of Jesus Christ and nurture the growth of students as Disciples of Christ. As students come to know Christ, they are challenged to exemplify behaviors and attitudes that glorify God.
Core Value: Collaborating with Parents
Belief: Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it. (Proverbs 22:6). Two are better than one, for they have a good reward for their labor. (Ecclesiastes 4:9)
Application: We will collaborate with parents by communicating regularly via RenWeb, email, verbally, and/or handwritten notes. We will listen and respond to parents' concerns and ideas. We will work with parents to discern the best course of action when problems or issues arise with a student at school. We will give parents every opportunity to fellowship and serve within the school community.
Core Value: Excellent Education
Belief: In all you do, do it onto the Lord. Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men. (Colossians 3:23).
Application: We are committed to staff teachers who are of the highest caliber both professionally and spiritually. We expect our staff to take advantage of professional development opportunities. We are committed to using Biblically-integrated curriculum which exceeds national and state standards.
School History
Impact Christian Schools started when two schools, High Point Christian School (founded in 1975 and Abundant Life Christian School (founded in 1977) elected to join together under that name Madison Christian Schools in the 2011-2012 school year. Both schools were governed by the Elders of High Point Church and signed a six-year management agreement. The effort strengthened both schools, and as the management agreement came to a close, it was decided to broaden this ministry’s effort to include additional schools.
A new organization was created in May of 2018 called Impact Christian Schools (ICS). Initially, it included Abundant Life Christian School (Preschool-12), High Point Christian School (3K-8), and Lighthouse Christian School (4K-8). Within the next two years, the Community Christian School of Baraboo (4K-12) was added. High Point Christian School planted Mount Horeb Christian School (3K-8), which became an official separate entity within the ICS network in July of 2023. In the fall of 2023, ICS planted a new high school, Impact Christian Academy.
