Oroville Christian School seeks to glorify God by offering a high quality elementary Christian education to the families of the greater Oroville area.
Established in 1977, Oroville Christian School seeks to glorify God and bless Butte County and the surrounding area. We do this by providing an excellent, Christ-centered education to students in Preschool through 8th grade.
Our desire for every student — and for your child — is that they would grow into men and women with strong character and 21st-century skills. We believe it is through these children that God will impact our community and our world.
