MN Christian Schools United

On October 17, Maranatha hosted its second annual MN Christian Schools United conference. Over fifteen Christian schools from around Minnesota and Wisconsin, as well as one church, attended with 400 attendees in total. Keynote speaker Dr. Kathy Koch from Celebrate Kids shared practical, relevant, and scripture-centered insight with educators to increase their hope in God, celebrate kids as Jesus did, and help guide students to develop biblical character. In addition to hearing from Dr. Koch, attendees selected two breakout sessions from 30 available sessions on various topics. Our Maranatha Executive Leadership team and Academic Chairs also facilitated network roundtable discussions where they provided the opportunity to collaborate and exchange ideas on key aspects of their roles. 

The MN Christian Schools United conference is a strategic priority for Maranatha. This conference gives us the opportunity to intentionally provide collaboration with other Christian schools by assisting and transferring knowledge and skills to improve learner performance and operational effectiveness. This professional development day was a highlight for teachers and staff alike. 

Maranatha leadership is already hard at work planning for MN Christian Schools United 2025.
