I have had one child go through Maranatha, one child who is currently at Maranatha, and one child who is coming through soon. I have been so happy with how Maranatha has prepared my children, has given them a strong voice, a solid education, a great experience in sports and most of all has helped them grow stronger in their faith.

MHS has been welcoming and hospitable from the very beginning, which made our family feel most heard, known, and a place to belong. We value the school’s integrity and intentional efforts on being Christ-centered in the academics, athletics, and community.
