Deepen & Broaden
Our Opportunity
With Phase One complete, WCGS is moving forward with the next chapter of our campus expansion. This project broadens and deepens our impact by serving both current and future students—strengthening every area of learning, discipleship, and student life.
Phase One, which broke ground in summer 2024 and was completed in 2025, included a new junior high wing, innovation hub, atrium, and expanded parking—spaces now actively serving our school community.
As we look toward Phase Two, plans include the construction of a multi-purpose gymnasium and foyer, along with renovations to existing learning spaces, all designed to better support students.
Classrooms
A new junior high wing featuring 13-15 classrooms, designed to accommodate four sections per grade level over time while maintaining a strong student-to-teacher ratio and commitment to educational excellence.
Innovation Hub
A new innovation lab, designed for use by all grade levels, featuring an open floor plan where students discover, design, engineer, and collaborate together.
Atrium
A welcoming atrium designed to gather our community, host events, foster student connection, and encourage meaningful parent involvement.
Gymnasium
Construct a new multi-purpose gymnasium to provide an improved experience for athletics and physical education as well as provide additional capacity for daily school activities and all-school functions. This phase also includes building a foyer and renovating some existing learning spaces.
Our Need & Invitation
We believe God has more in store for Wheaton Christian Grammar School.
With the first phase of the building project completed, we are so grateful to share that our $18.1M goal has been fully met through gifts and pledges through the FAITHFUL Capital Campaign. God’s provision through our generous community has positioned us to move confidently into the next phase of this vision.
Phase Two will require an estimated additional $8-10M. As we focus now on this next stage of expansion, we continue to seek the Lord’s guidance as He builds and funds this important effort to broaden and deepen our impact.
Our faith has shown us that this God-sized vision for WCGS is realized through the generosity of those impacted by His work at our school. We invite you to partner with us as we raise up the next generation to use their hearts, minds, and hands to impact the world for Jesus Christ.
Join us in experiencing the goodness of a faithful God by supporting the next chapter of the WCGS FAITHFUL Capital Campaign. Your investment in this expansion will create a transformational impact for generations to come.

Deepen & Broaden
A Spirit-led Vision
Over the next five years, WCGS is asking God to deepen and broaden our impact on children, our families, and the communities we serve. There is one foundation and three Pillars in our future vision.
Biblically Faithful
The Bible is the Foundation for all that we do. Our focus is on faithfully sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ and building a community of Christ followers who demonstrate love for God and love for others by walking in obedience to God’s Word.
Transformative Experience
WCGS will continue to establish environments for life-changing spiritual, intellectual, relational and physical growth for our students.
Educational Excellence
WCGS desires to expand our educational environment to offer more intentional experiences and foster intellectual curiosity. As we continue to grow, we desire to support our teachers with better tools and insights to continue developing students.
Available to Mission-fit Families
WCGS desires to broaden its reach into the local community. This includes meeting the needs of a growing population of mission-fit families, providing Christian education to more students in all K-8 grade levels. We see an exciting opportunity to develop four-track classrooms for all grade levels over time.
Why Now?
1. Education in a Shifting Culture: Students today face daily choices that require moral discretion – perhaps more than ever before in our school’s history. Cultural shifts toward materialism, relativism, secularism, and individualism encourage the false belief that the Bible, and the truths contained therein, has no authority over students’ daily lives. Families are prioritizing Christian education in record numbers as a result.
2. Capacity: WCGS reached near-full capacity in the 2023–2024 school year, and demand has remained strong. Phase One has already expanded our ability to serve more students and families, addressing key classroom and campus space needs. As we move into Phase Two, we are building on this momentum to ensure we can sustainably accommodate this growth and create additional spaces for our community to gather and connect.
3. Innovative Learning Spaces: The need for dynamic, collaborative learning environments continues to grow. With the completion of our new innovation and junior high spaces, students are already benefiting from expanded opportunities for hands-on discovery and collaboration. Phase Two will further enhance our campus, ensuring students at every grade level are prepared for rigorous secondary education, post-secondary pursuits, and the careers of tomorrow.
One spiritual highlight was hearing our 5th grader recite her memorized chapters from Isaiah as we neared Christmas break, then watching her light up as our pastor read from the same verses at our Christmas Eve service. She whispered to all of us, “I know these verses! This is what we memorized at school!” That connection between what she is hearing at church and getting reinforced during the week at school is invaluable.
I really didn’t know how much a community could change you until Wheaton Christian. I switched to this school in third grade where I was immediately met by one of the best teachers. I also was surrounded by classmates that spurred me on, which I was not used to. It was all a big change for me. I could see it in the little things like how kind people were to each other on the playground and how much the teachers truly cared for you. I had entered into a community that would change my life, and is still changing my life to this day.
We have valued moments like unprompted dinner conversations as a family around the chapel topic, a Scripture memory verse, or the life lessons the boys were learning from godly teachers. Moments like our oldest son participating as a 6th grader in student-led Bible studies led by 8th graders who are pouring into underclassmen and teaching them how to love reading their Bible. Our boys are thriving in every way, and WCGS could not be a better partner for us as parents.
Performing the role of Mary Poppins could have been overwhelming and intimidating, but the directors reminded me that I was ultimately performing for the Lord, which helped me get into a good mindset. During this experience, I learned to trust God with the plan He has for me, as I could see all that He had done to prepare and equip me for being a part of this show.
