Our Staff/Teacher Bios
All our staff at Regina Christian School are spiritually mature, born again men and women who see their work as God’s calling for their lives. They are dedicated Christian role models and mentors to the students and seek to serve Christ in their work.
Our teachers are provincially certified through the Saskatchewan Ministry of Education and have, at minimum, a Bachelor of Education Degree, some also have Bible College Degrees and Masters Degrees.
All courses are taught from a biblical perspective as the teachers seek to guide the students towards Christ in all aspects of their day.
If I had to choose one thing that makes RCS so special, it would be the teachers. I hear other people speak of their bad teachers and I think, “can’t relate to that.” I think it will be hard to move on from high school because I never know when I will see some of these people again.
