What local high schools say about MCS graduates
Crean Lutheran High School feels exceedingly blessed to partner with Mariners Christian School in Christian education. MCS has earned the reputation of being one of Orange County’s finest Christian schools, which can be very readily be linked to its evangelical approach to proclaiming Jesus Christ, and to its top-tier academic and co-curricular standing in the community. Creating such a culture is Mariners’ dynamic school leadership, which begins with its executives and runs through its students, who have consistently been among Crean Lutheran’s best and brightest. Well done good and faithful servants!
Brian Underwood, Executive Director, Crean Lutheran High School
In my time with MCS alumni–both in and out of the classroom–I have found them to be well prepared for high school and life. They are adaptable problem solvers, have a joy for learning, and have a strong Christian worldview. I could not recommend MCS more highly for any family looking for an academically strong K-8 school that is well-grounded in the Christian faith.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SCHOOL. Our children came over in 6th grade, but I wish every time I have any interaction with any of the staff or parents which is all the time, I WISH my children had attended here since kindergarten. I think the biggest difference is that it is truly full of God’s Grace. The academics are above par. The teachers are the finest and most compassionate teachers you’ll ever find. If ever you are not understanding or need a little extra help, the teachers will bend over backwards to make sure you understand the material you had struggled with before. Your children come first with these teachers.In my opinion, your children will be blessed beyond your expectations at MCS.

My family has been at Mariners Christian School since 2006. They deliver on providing a Christ-centered education because it’s not just in the curriculum with chapel, bible class, assemblies, and events. It’s in the character of the people who work at the school, all the way from the head of school to the volunteers who give of their time and their heart to pour into each child’s academic and spiritual growth. The teachers are outstanding because they want to be there and it shows. They’re creative, warm, loving, and hold the students accountable for their actions in the classroom and on the playground. They routinely go above and beyond to challenge their students academically, and to provide opportunities for both accelerated learning and extra help when kids are struggling. We are forever grateful for Mariners Christian School.

Mariners Christian School has been wonderful for our two boys. We’ve been at the school for 10 years, since 2006 and our boys have participated in orchestra, sports, accelerated math, Spanish, speech meets, spelling bees, field trips to Sacramento, Washington D.C., science camps, etc. Everything about Mariners Christian School is Christ-centered, from the teachers, staff, administration, learning environment and sense of community. We are forever thankful for our time at this school and the educational and spiritual foundation it has provided our boys as they launch into public high school this fall.

MCS is so far beyond an exceptional academic school that provides students with a solid education. It is a place where students grow in their faith and learn to defend it. It is a place where families grow up together, and where teachers invent in their students. It is a place where students feel loved and accepted, and where they are prepared for the challenges and experiences in the world. It is a place that students call home, and it will forever remain in their hearts after they graduate. As parents, we consider Mariners Christian School one of the best investments we have ever made.
