Admissions

Welcome to Crown Point Christian School’s Admissions page. My name is Amanda Zandstra and I am here to help you navigate the steps to become a CPCS family. I also walk alongside current families during their journey.  As we partner together to raise children in the knowledge, grace and love of our Lord, Jesus Christ, I am a resource and a friend to you. ​

Welcome

Things to know about me: Jesus is my Lord and Savior. I know through faith, by grace, I am saved and I receive the gift of eternal life with Him. Something I surely do not deserve. I married my husband Brett Zandstra in 2010. We are so appreciative of what private Christian education means and what value this foundation brings to a child’s life. Together, we are raising 2 beautiful daughters that are true gifts. Not only am I a member of the fantastic Crown Point Christian School’s Administration team, I am a current parent here. Both my daughters attend CPCS. I saw the love and dedication poured into the daily lives of my children as a supporting parent, but now I see it behind the scenes in an impactful way that excites me. I want to share it with anyone who wants to learn more. More than a decade of my life has been geared towards the education of children either as a Preschool Director, Teacher or Teacher’s Aide, Sunday School teacher, VBS leader, or Awana Director. I am passionate about children hearing the gospel message whether it be at church where I serve, in the home, or at school.

If you are interested in a partnership together, please read on about the Admissions process. I am happy to talk with you over the phone or respond to an email to admissions@crownpointchristian.org. Remember, this is my passion and it excites me, so don’t hesitate. You never know where God will lead your family. I feel blessed to help in any way I can.

Biblically Rooted

Transformation Minded

The goal of a CPCS education is to develop a community of learners that , through the power and work of the Holy Spirit, serve “to transform the world in the name of Jesus Christ.”
