it’s decision time. You’ve explored the educational opportunities available for your child(ren) – from the local public school, to online, homeschool, or charter schools – and have winnowed your choices to a list of independent schools. You’ve read blogs about [how to choose the best private school for your family](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/how-to-choose-the-best-private-school-for-your-family) and have further narrowed your focus to [a Christian school](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/informedfaith) to align with your family values. So, where do you go from here? Why should Mount Paran Christian School - the largest private Christian school in Cobb county - be at the top of your school choice list? Read on for first-hand experiences from current students and why parents chose Mount Paran Christian School for their children’s education.   ##### ![4kidshorizMPCS0296-HDR](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hs-fs/hubfs/4kidshorizMPCS0296-HDR.jpg?width=844&name=4kidshorizMPCS0296-HDR.jpg) [![How to Imagine, Innovate, and Build for the Education of Tomorrow](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hubfs/c2_edited_people_MIC_coffee.jpg)](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/how-to-imagine-innovate-and-build-for-k-12-education-of-tomorrow) ## [How to Imagine, Innovate, and Build for the Education of Tomorrow](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/how-to-imagine-innovate-and-build-for-k-12-education-of-tomorrow) February 03, 2021 How does a growing high school — with 450 students learning in a space originally designed for just 250 — plan for a building expansion that captures the imagination of its community, while also implementing thoughtful design to prepare students for a 21st-century education? Mount Paran Christian School asked this very question as the school undertook the seemingly insurmountable task of creating a new, purposeful educational facility that would house radical spaces to learn, test, collaborate, and grow. The process for designing the new **Murray Innovation Center** was itself an unconventional exercise, with key takeaways that other schools and organizations might not consider before embarking upon large-scale initiatives. ##### ![c2\_edited\_people\_MIC\_coffee](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hs-fs/hubfs/c2_edited_people_MIC_coffee.jpg?width=2500&name=c2_edited_people_MIC_coffee.jpg) [![ParentEd.: Real Talk for Moms](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hubfs/PKana%26studentNEW.jpg)](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/parented-real-talk-for-moms) ## [ParentEd.: Real Talk for Moms](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/parented-real-talk-for-moms) January 26, 2021 Moms love and need to connect, whether it’s enjoying a cup of coffee and a long talk, sharing nuggets of broken conversation between chasing toddlers at the park, or just quickly chatting on the phone. There is something almost sacred about the wisdom and encouragement shared and gained when moms spend time together. We need one another's support as we raise our children together. ##### ![PKana&studentNEW](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hs-fs/hubfs/PKana%26studentNEW.jpg?width=786&name=PKana%26studentNEW.jpg) [![Living Into Community: Hospitality](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hubfs/hosp%20cMPCS7574.jpg)](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/living-into-community-hospitality) ## [Living Into Community: Hospitality](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/living-into-community-hospitality) December 16, 2020 In this blog series, *WingTips* has explored how the practices of truth telling, gratitude, and promise keeping create strong, sustainable communities. Successfully implementing these three actions in tandem leads to meaningful relationships and impacts the broader practice of hospitality. Author Christine Pohl describes hospitality in her book, *Living Into Community: Cultivating Practices That Sustain Us,* as recognizing the needs of others, while being open to their ideas and contributions, ultimately leaving those we meet feeling valued and with a sense of belonging. What this looks like in actuality is the topic at hand.   ![hosp cMPCS7574](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hs-fs/hubfs/hosp%20cMPCS7574.jpg?width=844&name=hosp%20cMPCS7574.jpg) [![Living Into Community: Promise Keeping](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hubfs/promise%20raised%20hand%2020201201-MPCS7428.jpg)](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/living-into-community-promise-keeping) ## [Living Into Community: Promise Keeping](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/living-into-community-promise-keeping) December 02, 2020 *You’re only as good as your word.*  *Pinky promise?*  *I’m telling you the truth, I swear!*   Making - and breaking - promises is commonplace, a daily occurrence. Promises are made often and easily broken, leading us to a culture that is jaded when it comes to promise keeping. As author Christine Pohl explores in her book, *Living Into Community: Cultivating Practices That Sustain Us,* making and keeping promises is central to a person’s character and identity. Why, then, is it so easy for so many to make a flippant promise and then later break their word? What does this relative ease with promise-breaking say about society? How can we function as successful, thriving communities if we cannot keep our promises?    ![promise raised hand 20201201-MPCS7428](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hs-fs/hubfs/promise%20raised%20hand%2020201201-MPCS7428.jpg?width=844&name=promise%20raised%20hand%2020201201-MPCS7428.jpg) [![Living Into Community: Gratitude](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hubfs/thanksMPCS6817.jpg)](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/living-into-community-gratitude) ## [Living Into Community: Gratitude](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/living-into-community-gratitude) November 18, 2020 Thanksgiving is upon us, and with it comes thoughts of turkey, pumpkin pies, and an abundance of gratitude. This is the season of thankfulness. We are reminded every November to count our blessings. So, how can we carry an attitude of gratitude with us throughout the year? In the second part of the *Living Into Community* blog series, we explore author Christine Pohl's insights into how gratitude plays a significant role in community-building and what embracing gratitude looks like on the MPCS campus on a daily basis. ![thanksMPCS6817](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hs-fs/hubfs/thanksMPCS6817.jpg?width=844&name=thanksMPCS6817.jpg) [![Living Into Community: Truth-Telling](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hubfs/TT%20h%20IMG_0478.jpg)](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/living-into-community-truth-telling) ## [Living Into Community: Truth-Telling](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/living-into-community-truth-telling) November 10, 2020 One of the hallmarks of being a part of the Mount Paran Christian School family is that ours is a commUNITY - emphasis on *unity.* We are spiritual brothers and sisters, one in the body of Christ. But, what does a strong community look like? Why do we, as both a school and as a society, seek community? How can we ensure that we are the tightly-knit family we, at MPCS, proclaim to be? And, how can others learn from our experiences in community-building?   ![TT h IMG\_0478](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hs-fs/hubfs/TT%20h%20IMG_0478.jpg?width=844&name=TT%20h%20IMG_0478.jpg) [![Campaign for CommUNITY](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hubfs/CommUnityBannersforBlog%20SM.jpg)](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/campaign-for-community) ## [Campaign for CommUNITY](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/campaign-for-community) September 01, 2020 The summer of 2020 has certainly been one for the history books. From social distancing and uncertainty about the future, to calls for racial justice and reconciliation, 2020 has taken an emotional toll on much of our country. After too many months apart, the Mount Paran Christian School family rejoices in finally reuniting on campus for the start of a new academic year. As we do so, our school family brings great hope for the future, trusting in the One who knows all and who has a plan for us.   *“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord. “Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” —**Jeremiah 29:11***   ![CommUnityBannersforBlog](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hs-fs/hubfs/CommUnityBannersforBlog.jpg?width=844&name=CommUnityBannersforBlog.jpg) [![Pathways: The Places MPCS Seniors Go](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hubfs/val19LR-6041.jpg)](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/pathways-the-places-mpcs-seniors-go) ## [Pathways: The Places MPCS Seniors Go](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/pathways-the-places-mpcs-seniors-go) June 09, 2020 Oh, the places they will go. The Mount Paran Christian School Class of 2020 will head off to a variety of universities in the fall, bringing with them the solid academic foundation built at MPCS. These rising college freshman will be pursuing career pathways as varied as Forestry, Athletic Training, Forensics, Vocal Performance, as well as Business, Engineering, or Medicine. Read on to learn more about how some of these seniors came to choose their career pathways.    ![career paths2](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hs-fs/hubfs/career%20paths2.jpg?width=844&name=career%20paths2.jpg) [![Portrait of a Graduate](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hubfs/gradsinarowLR-6814.jpg)](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/portrait-of-a-graduate) ## [Portrait of a Graduate](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/portrait-of-a-graduate) May 12, 2020 There’s no question that a Mount Paran Christian School graduate is remarkable. But, what exactly *is* it about an MPCS student that sets them apart? How can their remarkability be defined – the “secret sauce,” if you will – that characterizes MPCS alumni?  The MPCS family is comprised of students who feature six key characteristics: MPCS students crave deeper faith; embrace intellectual curiosity; prepare completely; refuse to be bystanders; live courageously; and reach forward, pressing on toward their goals. What does this look like, in reality? The 2020 Senior Spotlights - the five students who earned the top grade point averages in the class - beautifully represent this “Portrait of a Graduate.”   ##### ![gradsinarowLR-6814](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hs-fs/hubfs/gradsinarowLR-6814.jpg?width=844&name=gradsinarowLR-6814.jpg) [![ParentEd.: Raising Athletes: The Good, Bad, and the Ugly](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hubfs/KanellGroup.jpg)](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/raising-athletes-good-bad-ugly) ## [ParentEd.: Raising Athletes: The Good, Bad, and the Ugly](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/raising-athletes-good-bad-ugly) May 07, 2020 *As part of its ParentEd. speaker series, Mount Paran Christian School continues its commitment to partner with parents in the total education and raising of their children. Through each ParentEd. talk, MPCS provides families with great parenting resources and tips to help overcome obstacles as children grow through different stages. We also explore many trends and topics that are influencing young children and teens in today's culture.* Danny Kanell, CBS/Fox Sports Analyst and former NFL quarterback, visited the Knox Athletic Performance Center on the Mount Paran Christian School campus for an interview-style discussion. Facilitated by Athletic Director Mitch Jordan, Mr Kanell addressed the topic of  "Raising Athletes: The Good, Bad, and the Ugly.” Mr. Kanell drew from his vast experience and knowledge of the college and professional sports world to share tips for striking a balance in developing young athletes in today’s ultra-competitive culture.   ![KanellGroup](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hs-fs/hubfs/KanellGroup.jpg?width=844&name=KanellGroup.jpg) [![How to Choose the Best Private School for Your Family](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/hubfs/MPCS%20KellyMoss%20MOJO9882%20crop.jpg)](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/how-to-choose-the-best-private-school-for-your-family) ## [How to Choose the Best Private School for Your Family](https://blog.mtparanschool.com/how-to-choose-the-best-private-school-for-your-family) April 15, 2020 Families in Cobb County and the northwest metro-Atlanta area have many options when it comes to choosing the best school for their children, from great neighborhood public schools to several private school alternatives.
