Staff members at John Knox Christian School, living in joyful fellowship with God, model the love of Christ to children. Empowered by the Holy Spirit and dedicated to the highest standard of excellence and professionalism, Christian teachers view their work as vocation. The calling of a Christian school teacher is to pass on the wisdom of the Christian tradition to students to help them understand and apply the transforming power of the Gospel to contemporary society and culture.
All teachers have obtained either their OTC (Ontario Teaching Certificate) and/or their CSTC (Christian School Teaching Certificate). Ongoing professional development is encouraged and expected.
