About Abundant Life
Since 1982, Abundant Life Christian School has partnered with families that desire for their children to be given an education that is grounded in faith and rigorous academics, and producing students of excellence and character.
Our school and childcare was founded by life-long proponents of Christian education, former Pastor Everett Reed and his wife Carol, with the membership of the then named First Baptist Church of Wilmington in 1982. Abundant Life was originally located in Wilmington’s Boutwell School building. In 1995, an addition was built on to the property at Church Street and Abundant Life settled in at its current location along the Wilmington Town Common.
Since its founding, Abundant Life’s Christian School has offered educational programs and childcare for families seeking a Christ-centered school experience. Our programming has offerings for all ages, from 8 weeks young as an infant in our Childcare, through the elementary years, and finishing the 8th grade in middle school.
Academic Excellence
Students should be equipped with all the skills and knowledge to thrive in a complex and uncertain world. At Abundant Life Christian School, academics is when we prepare individual students for their next steps in their educational journey.
Learning needs to be challenging, but it also needs to be engaging. Our curriculum pushes our students to achieve greatness and helps them establish a growth mindset.
Personal
Students learn best when they are engaged in learning that resonates with their personal experiences. Critical thinking plays a big role in the classroom and is encouraged, whether it’s a hypothesis in science class, a paper in world history, or a tough question about faith.
Class sizes are intentionally designed to allow teachers to assess and respond to each child’s distinct abilities and learning styles.
