- OUR VISION
- Our vision is that every school in America will be in
partnership with one or more neighboring churches to improve the academic
achievement, social behavior, and personal development of our children and
youth.
-
- OUR MISSION
- One Church One School brings together churches and
schools in partnerships that teach children to value life and learning.
This national network of church/school partnerships also acts as a catalyst to
build bridges between other community-based organizations, social service
agencies, business enterprises, and other schools.

- THE "P" PRINCIPLE
- "It Takes A Whole Village To Raise A Child." One
Church One School utilizes The "P" Principle of total involvement to provide
human and fiscal resources to support a nurturing school and community
environment for student development. Pastors and parishioners,
principles and school personnel, parents, pupils, politicians, and
philanthropists connect the village to the school and child. One Church
One School assists the schools, parents, students, and the community in
addressing education and social needs within the schools. At the
foundation of OCOS is a fundamental belief that public schools should develop
relations with the parents and the community-at-large to ensure a healthy
educational environment.
