Welcome to Great Hearts Christos Scottsdale – Opening in August of 2025
Welcome to Great Hearts Christos Scottsdale, an academy where faith and reason converge to offer an exceptional Christian private school education. Nestled in the heart of Scottsdale, our academy will embody the harmonious blend of a time-tested classical program with a Christ-centered culture, under the guidance of some of the country’s finest educators. We are committed to nurturing well-educated individuals who possess the habits of mind and heart to discern what is True, Good, and Beautiful, and to carry on the work of Christ in the world.
At Great Hearts Christos, we view education as an act of love, a process that ennobles human dignity and prepares scholars for a lifetime of learning and leadership. Our curriculum is designed not only to educate but to cultivate the whole person – intellectually, morally, and spiritually. Through our program, students embark on a journey that integrates rigorous academic pursuits with the principles of Christian faith, fostering a deep understanding of their cultural heritage and their role in renewing our society.
In partnership with local churches and the broader faith community, Great Hearts Christos Scottsdale will be dedicated to making high-quality Christian education accessible to all families. We believe that economic circumstances should not be a barrier to receiving an education that aligns with your family’s values and aspirations. Through various financial aid options available in Arizona, we ensure that our Christ-centered education is within reach of every family seeking to join our community.
Our academy will welcome students from elementary through middle school, to provide a nurturing and intellectually challenging environment from the earliest years of education. In our kindergarten and elementary grades, young learners will be introduced to the joys of learning in a setting that fosters curiosity, creativity, and a love for Jesus. We seek educators who are deeply committed to nurturing each child’s potential, guiding them through an enriching curriculum that lays a solid foundation for future academic and personal growth.
As students progress into middle school, they will encounter a curriculum that deepens their understanding of the classical liberal arts, intertwined with Christian teachings. The Great Hearts Christos middle school program challenges students to think critically, engage thoughtfully with complex ideas, and develop a coherent worldview grounded in Christian principles. We strive to cultivate scholars who are not only academically accomplished but also virtuous, compassionate, and committed to making a positive impact in the world.
Great Hearts Christos is more than just a school; it is a vibrant faith-based community where students, families, and educators will come together to celebrate learning, faith, and the development of character. Our school culture is marked by a shared commitment to the teachings of Jesus and the pursuit of excellence in all aspects of life. We encourage our students to live out their faith through acts of service, kindness, and a deep commitment to the values that underpin our Christian ethos.
Our campus in Scottsdale will offer a unique educational environment where the timeless beauty of the classical tradition meets the transformative power of Christian education. We invite you to visit one of our sister academies to see our school in action.
Great Hearts Christos Scottsdale will stand as a beacon of Christian classical education, providing a unique learning experience that prepares students for a life of intellectual, moral, and spiritual fulfillment. We are excited about the possibility of welcoming your family into our community and embarking together on this enriching educational journey.
We look forward to meeting you and sharing the exceptional experience that Great Hearts Christos Scottsdale will offer. Join us as we nurture the hearts and minds of the next generation of leaders, grounded in the teachings of Jesus and committed to the renewal of our culture.
In Faith,
Dr. Toyin Atolagbe
