About Shiloh
Shiloh Christian School is an interdenominational Christian School partnering with families of faith to raise their children to know, love and serve God. Our student body, faculty and staff represent many churches in the Bismarck-Mandan and surrounding communities. We strive to display the unity in the body of Christ, as written about in the scriptures, through our school family.
For over 40 years, Shiloh has been developing excellent student-leaders through strong academic programs grounded in Christian principles. Our dedicated faculty and staff are committed to nurturing and challenging students preschool through 12th grade.
Our one campus, one mission community allows each child to be known and valued as an individual. Small class sizes allow instructors to really draw on each student's individual learning strengths to appropriately guide and challenge their potential.
Shiloh's Core Values
At the core of Shiloh’s mission is the integration of Christian faith and values into the learning experience. Just as a Skyhawk does, Shiloh's students, faculty, and staff are called to SOAR!
- Serve: (1 Peter 4:10) God has given each of you a gift from His great variety of spiritual gifts. Use them well to serve one another.
- One: (Ephesians 4:2-6) Always be humble and gentle. Be patient with each other, making allowance for each other's faults because of your love. Make every effort to keep yourselves united in the Spirit, binding yourselves together with peace. For there is one body and one Spirit; just as you have been called to one glorious hope for the future. There is one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and father of all who is overall, in all, and living through all.
- Aware: (Ephesians 2:10) For we are God's masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.
- Respect: (Micah 6:8) No, o people, the Lord has told you what is good, and this is what he requires of you: do what is right, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God.
Our History
Shiloh Christian School opened in 1978 with 47 students and has now grown to over 650 students in Pre-K through 12th grade. Shiloh moved into a permanent 20-acre campus on Shiloh Drive in 1996. In 2003, Shiloh expanded its facilities by adding a second building with a gymnasium, stage/auditorium and classes for fourth through twelfth-grade students. The smaller-original building is now home to Shiloh's preschool and early elementary classrooms.
The term “Shiloh” was the place name of an Old Testament city which was the first established worship center in Israel (Judges 18:31). It was there that an annual pilgrimage of God’s people ended in worship of Israel’s God, Yahweh (Judges 21:19; 1 Sam. 1:3).
Samuel, a leader of God’s people, was brought to the house of the Lord at Shiloh that his whole life would be given over to the Lord. There the Lord revealed himself to Samuel through His word so that Samuel would minister before the Anointed One always (1 Sam. 1:28, 2:35).
Shiloh Christian School, like its Old Testament counterpart, provides a place where God is revealed through His Word, giving the standard for all instruction.
