We are excited to kick off a new series called, “Come See the Difference,” to allow prospective parents and those interested in classical, Christian education to have opportunities to see what life is like at the school and how it is different from other educational options.

“We at Evangel Classical Christian School would love for parents in the surrounding communities to see for themselves why we love and value our school,” says Director of Admissions, Lisa Taylor. “Our Fall Preview Day is an opportunity to do just that, experiencing firsthand our students, faculty, staff, and the love of Christ in action. If you come to visit, you will see the difference.”

The series will begin with the Fall Preview Day on Tuesday, November 10 from 8:00 a.m. until 9:30 a.m. Starting with a chapel service in the Evangel Church sanctuary, visitors will also go on a school tour, observe music and art classes, and attend a Q&A session with the junior and senior ECCS Student Ambassadors.

Additional events that are open to the community will begin after the Fall Preview Day, and include the following:

• Grammar School Christmas Play – December 3 & December 5 at 6:30 p.m.

        Third through fifth grade students will present “The Best Christmas Pageant Ever” in the Evangel gym.

• Christmas Concert – December 4 at 6:30 p.m.

        Students in  sixth through 12^th grade will perform seasonal songs in the Evangel Churh sanctuary.

• Grammar School Christmas Program – December 8 at 6:30 p.m.

         Kindergarten through fifth grade will present a Christmas program in the Evangel Church sanctuary.

• Senior Thesis Presentations – January 11 & 12 at 6:00 p.m.

        ECCS seniors will present their thesis projects in the Evangel Church sanctuary. This capstone project, which entails              18 months of preparation, is the culmination of many years of classical, Christian education.

• Speech Meet Showcase – February 19 from 8:00 a.m. until 8:30 a.m.

        Top students in second through fifth grade will present recitations in the Evangel Church sanctuary.

ECCS is an approved education provider for Alabama’s CHOOSE Act, which Taylor says is a game changer for many families.

“Now more than ever, we are hearing from parents who are desperate for educational alternatives for their children. Since the launch of Alabama’s CHOOSE Act in 2025, we have witnessed the rich benefits of select groups being afforded access to these alternatives. With the program’s current income cap being removed for the upcoming 2027-2028 registration period, private school education is no longer out of reach for even more families,” Taylor says.

We plan to have an additional preview day in the spring, along with a special open house event for future kindergarteners. More events may be added as well!

Enrollment for the 2027-2028 school year will open in January of 2027. To learn more about the school, visit evangelclassical.com or email Lisa Taylor, Director of Admissions: ltaylor@evangelclassical.org.
