St. Joseph Christian School
Saint Joseph Christian School is a private Christian school at 5401 Gene Field Road in Saint Joseph, Missouri. Local businessman Joe Gregory founded the school in 1988, after he said that he had received a vision whilst in a Texas hotel to build a Christian school in St. Joseph. He made a successful $30,000 sealed bid to buy the former Everett School at 14th and Oliver in downtown St. Joseph which had closed in 1985.[1] In 1998, a new school was constructed on the city's northeast side. It is just south of the Word of Life Church megachurch in the 102 River bottoms. The school currently has 341 students in grades K-12. The school is split up into two sections: elementary (preschool-6th grade) and secondary (7th grade through 12th grade). The Saint Joseph Christian School football team won the state championship in 8-man football in 2006. It was runner up in 2004, 2008, 2009 and 2010.
