About us

From   the   beginning

Jarabacoa Christian School was founded in the year 2000 by a group of Christian missionaries from the United States together with a local board of directors to make something from Jarabacoa for Jarabacoa.  Its aim is to provide the highest quality, American-style education that resources will permit while also providing the opportunity for our students to come to know Jesus Christ as their personal savior. 

Where   we   are   now

June of 2025 will mark our 25th anniversary.  We have moved to a larger premises and now cater to students of all ages from 2 years old to age 18, having begun as only an elementary school. We currently have approximately 400 students and pride ourselves in providing a high-quality education to the citizens of Jarabacoa and the world! 

Family, Faith, Future

Family

Our student body is comprised of approximately 400 students from PK-2 through 12th grade.  We maintain a maximum of 23 students per class in order to provide a high level of education to any student who desires academic excellence, while maintaining a close, familial environment in which students can develop academically, socially, and personally.

Faith

JCS believes that the purpose of education is to teach our students to respect others, to prepare for their future as Christians in the world, to teach them to live according to Christian values, and to develop them into future good citizens. The character values we emphasize at JCS include the following: patience, compassion, humility, solidarity, perseverance, forgiveness, self-control, honesty, and responsibility.

Future

The students of JCS receive instruction according to the rigorous academic standards of New Jersey (U.S.A.) and the Dominican Ministry of Education curriculum. In this way, our students will be prepared for university, whether in the Dominican Republic or in the United States.  Our small class sizes allow teachers to develop lesson plans according to the academic needs of each student to provide an effective learning environment.

Mission
Our mission is to provide a bilingual and spiritual-based educational program in a family oriented environment. We encourage students to develop critical thinking with a worldwide view, by incorporating modern teaching techniques, which will enable them to achieve success and become better citizens.

Vision
​
Our vision is to empower students to reach their full potential as productive citizens with Christian values.

Parents' Association

The JCS Parents' Association is a group of JCS families and friends who represent the parents of the students at JCS.  They aim to foster a sense of community among the families that choose JCS by holding regular meetings to give them a space to have their voices heard and by hosting events to bring together the students and their families.  Some of the things that the Association is involved with are organizing field trips, planning events and raising money to buy many wonderful resources for the school. To join the Association, contact Carleny, the current president, at + 1 829 913-1871

Student Council

The student council is the voice of the students at JCS.  Each year, every class in middle and high school elects a class president to act as their representative on the student council and then the whole school elects the overall student body president.  The president organizes student council meetings once a month to hear all of the issues, suggestions and feedback from each class and reports them to the school's leadership team.  We have made many changes based on their suggestions so highly encourage all students to participate and share their ideas through the council.
