South Olive Christian School
Christ-Centered – Affordable – Parent Partnered
Our middle school students have been diving into both Scripture and history! 📖✨ In Bible class, they’re studying from Colossians, and in history, they’re exploring ancient Mesopotamia.
Bringing the two together, students became artisans—creating shell inlays with blue “lapis lazuli” gems, a stone mentioned in the Bible as part of God’s throne. Each design represents a characteristic of God found in Colossians. 💙

This month in chapel, we’re learning about the Breastplate of Righteousness as part of our 2025–26 school theme, “Put on the full armor of God” — Ephesians 6:11.
We were blessed to have guest speaker Kelli TenHaken from Calvary Church help us understand what it means to put on the breastplate of righteousness and guard our hearts with God’s truth. 💛

Our kindergarteners are diving into classic stories — but at South Olive Christian School, every lesson is taught through a Biblical worldview. 📚✨ Mrs. Kohl connected the story to our school’s theme verse this year: “Put on the belt of truth.” — Ephesians 6:11 💛

Our PIGS production is in full swing! 🐷✨ The freezers are full, and our pigs are as delicious as ever!
Remember — every dollar from PIGS goes directly toward funding a child’s Christian education here at South Olive Christian School. 💛
You can purchase your pigs at South Olive Christian School or from the freezer bin at South Olive CRC (corner of 120th Ave and Port Sheldon in Holland).

🎃 Being a Christian is like being a pumpkin!�Here at SOCS, we’re always pointing our students back to our Creator — in every event and every day. 🍂Our children shared Bible verses about how we, as Christians, are like pumpkins — chosen, cleaned, and filled with His light. 💛

Our chapels are always better when parents and caregivers join in with their students. 💙
