Worthington Christian Schools is an American private secondary school in Worthington, Franklin County, Ohio. The school was founded in 1973, and teaches grades nine through twelve.

As suggested by the name, the school teaches Christian beliefs as a required part of its curriculum. All students and staff must agree to what it calls the Community Life Together Covenant, which is a statement of values and principles, that guide conduct.

According to the school, 95% of graduates go on to a subsequent four-year degree program.

Organization

The high school is run by Worthington Christian Schools, which in turn, is a ministry of the Grace Polaris Church of Columbus, Ohio; a member of the Fellowship of Grace Brethren Churches. The school's statement of faith comes from the fellowship, a voluntary organization of autonomous churches. Students come from a variety of different Christian churches, and are required to share core beliefs, but not necessarily belong to the same denomination.
