Questions

Common questions


What grades does State Line serve?

State Line Christian School serves K-4 readiness (four-year-olds) through twelfth grade. Our Early Learning Center also cares for children from two and a half years old through sixth grade, before and after school and through the summer.

What curriculum do you use?

We use the A Beka Book curriculum throughout the school. Core classes are chosen for each student, and every student receives four years of English, math and science.

Do you offer a discount for multiple children?

Yes. Family rates are built into the tuition schedule above — a two-child family pays $8,140 per year rather than twice the single-student rate, and rates continue to step down through five or more children.

When are tuition payments due?

Payments are due the first of every month, and a coupon book is provided so you will not receive a monthly statement. A $25.00 late fee is added if payment is not received by the 10th.

Does my child need to take an entrance test?

New students entering grades 4 through 12 take a placement test to verify grade level. There is a non-refundable $50.00 testing fee.

Do you have to be a member of Lewis Avenue Baptist Church?

No. State Line was founded to serve Lewis Avenue Baptist Church and the other churches in the Greater Toledo area, and our families come from churches throughout the Bedford and Toledo region.

What if a class is already full?

Once a class fills, students are placed on a waiting list for that class. We recommend applying as early in the enrollment window as possible.
