"At first I chose DeMotte Christian School because they offered me a teaching position, but I soon found out it was more than a mere job.  I quickly noticed a close-knit community among faculty and staff.  But more than that is the attitude toward the students.  The teachers and staff truly love the students and strive to further each one as a student and child of God."

"At DeMotte Christian School, I like the friends and teachers in my classes.  The teachers put in a lot of time, and the friends are nice and understanding.  Thanks to everyone who works, helps, or goes to this great school!"
                                                                              Emily, 7th Grade Student

"Besides academics, we wanted a place where our daughter could freely pray in school and feel free to express her love for Jesus.  She openly sings praises and prays to God in front of everyone on a daily basis, which has become second nature to her.  This confidence in openly expressing her love of God to others will take her far when she's an adult.  We appreciate the genuine caring attitude of all the teachers and staff.   Her teacher individualizes the lesson plans around each student's learning ability, challenging those who need to be challenged and working with those who need extra assistance.  Each student is special to the teachers and the staff, not just a number that gets lost in the crowd.  Our daughter is made to feel special by the staff and for that, we say thank you!"

"The thing I like most is that we can freely talk and hear the Word of God..."

"Some of the things I like most about DeMotte Christian School are the teachers and people.  I also enjoy playing basketball, playing the trumpet in band, and performing in 'Disney's Beauty and the Beast, Jr.'."

"We are the Jack and Angie Hamstra family! Our daughter, Emma, is in kindergarten at DeMotte Christian School and our son, Jackson, will be four in May. Jack is a DMC alumnus and our family recently moved back to DeMotte from Kalamazoo, Michigan.
   Honestly, we had never considered Christian education until about a year ago. As we started exploring our options, God began to lay DMC on our hearts. As we prayed, God wasn’t letting up about the idea, so we thought it wouldn’t hurt to met with Mr. Rozendal, the principal at DMC. He was so kind and understanding and took the time to tell us all about the school and pray with us about this big decision. He also went through several options with us about different ways to help with tuition. Being knowledgeable on those things, such as the SCRIP program, helped us immensely this year. We are completely in awe of the way God has provided. We decided to apply and had a wonderful interview with a few men from the board. They were truly interested in our family, our spiritual life and in what ways the school could help build on that. We decided to give in to God and trust Him with this decision. We are so glad we did!
    We truly feel that everyone has love and concern for our daughter. The principal, custodian, cook or teachers, it doesn’t matter the position, you will see them all on a day to day basis serving alongside each other and being very visible and a fun part of the children’s school experience. We love the many opportunities to get involved and definitely the small class sizes. We could go on and on. We are truly grateful that God has directed us to DMC and given us the boldness in Him to trust Him to work out all the details."

"I like DMC because everyone knows everybody and everyone is always willing to say 'hi' to you.  Junior High at DMC is a lot of fun because of Student Council.  They decide on what fun days we should have and when, they make school fun and interesting.  Since everyone is so friendly, it is a lot of fun to be in extra-curricular activities such as basketball, soccer, volleyball, track and field, Spell Bowl, Geography Bee, and Student Council."

"I love how we can go around school and not be afraid of our faith and how everyone accepts everyone for who they are.  Having Christian teachers helps show a Christian perspective on everyday classes and subjects."
                                                                                                                      Blair Kickert, 8th Grade Student

"As Christians we always knew we wanted our boys to go to DMC.  Not only do they get a great education, they learn so much about our wonderful Savior.  They also are taught how to use their God-given gifts and talents to help others and their community.  There are so many wonderful things about DMC - great and caring teachers, small class sizes, an administrator and school board we can trust to make the right decisions about our school family atmosphere.  We enjoy being part of God's family and sharing our lives with DMC.  What a blessing DMC has been to us and our community!"
