GRADUATING LEADERS LL OOO KKI HHO ILLLLIIAN N S SCC AN HHIILLLL C CHHRRISISTTIAIAN Our vision is that KHCS students will become Leaders as demonstrated by: • Consistent modeling of Christ-like character and obedience in teacher and peer interaction and in team and personal competition. • Leadership in student activities including academics, fine arts, and athletics. • Empathy toward those in need, in the school, in the community, and in the world. AT KILLIAN HILL CHRISTIAN SCHOOL We start with comprehensive training in biblical and academic foundational truths for life and then build a broad range of opportunities for our students to practice, observe, experience, and be mentored in their leadership. By the time they graduate, KHCS students will have had opportunities to lead student small groups and clubs, compete in fine arts, sports, debate, and quiz bowl, plan and organize class events, and lead their entire school in Cougar spirit events! KHCS has a long history of producing leaders in the civic, athletic, fine arts, academic, business, and ministry worlds.

The perspective that Jesus Christ gives in Matthew 16:26 is the foundation of all we do at KHCS – “For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what shall a man give in return for his soul?” We believe the greatest gift we can give a student at KHCS is the opportunity to know and love God. The condition of one’s soul is be- hind every interaction with students, colors our approach to classroom discipline, drives our emphasis on character devel- opment, and motivates our love for each child in our care. In elementary school, discipleship begins with learning about God and His ways, about the purpose for living, and about how to live with others as God intended. We teach that the Bible is God’s revealed Word and is our authority for life and living. In secondary school, students are given more opportunities to grow, share and lead others through small groups, Bible studies, and one-on-one relationships with faculty. Life on the Hill is so much more than superior academics, great extra- curriculars, and a family environment; at the core, it is about knowing and loving Jesus Christ! TRAINING SCHOLARS OL K O ILLI SCH AN HILL CHRISTIAN Our vision is that KHCS students will become Scholars as demonstrated by: • Personal intellectual curiosity, a balanced and teachable spirit, and lifelong learning. • Proficiency in communication using written, oral, digital, and visual means. • Problem solving using discovery and investigation, critical thinking, and synthesis of information. • Continual growth in academic competencies as measured by regular standardized assessments. • Appropriate and balanced mental, spiritual, physical, and social growth. 2019-20 SCHOOL YEAR OVERVIEW $2M 410 38 14:1 50% College Scholarships Enrollment Faculty Student Teacher Ratio Advanced Degrees OUR CAMPUS GRAD CLASS SAT/ACT SCORE % AP COURSES Acres 27 SAT COLLEGE On Campus: AP Calculus AB, Buildings 5 2016 1054 95% AP Calculus BC, AP Physics C, AP Biology, Athletic Fields 2 2017 1185 100% AP English Lit/Comp, AP Psychology, Tennis Courts 2 2018 1213 100% AP US History, AP World History, Gymnasium 650 seats 2019 1182 100% AP Computer Science Principles Online Courses: @ GA Virtual School ENROLLMENT ADMINISTRATION Dual Enroll: Truett McConnell University School 410 Head of School Doug Abels, EdD Honors Math: Grades 7–12 K4 28 Principals: K5 32 Secondary (7–12) Douglas Dawson ATHLETICS Elementary School (1–6) 167 Elementary (K4–6) Nick Brown Basketball, Soccer, Tennis, Volleyball Secondary School (7–12) 183 Preschool Director (K4–K5) Lori Anderson African American 44% Basketball, Soccer, Tennis, Intramural ACCREDITATION & ASSOC.
