Description: Life Way Christian School, a ministry of First Baptist Church Centerton, began operation in August 2000 with an enrollment of 54 students in grades PK3 - K5. From its inception, the commitment of the faculty, staff and School Board has been one of developing a school that entered into a partnership with the home and church to support the development of a biblical world view in the lives of students. To accomplish this, the school has designed a program that emphasizes a commitment to excellence in everything that is undertaken by faculty/staff and students.
