Mission & Vision

Educating for now, and for eternity.

The MACS Family exists to show children Jesus, nurture their love for Him and others, teach them to think, and empower them to serve.

Metro-East Adventist Christian School was established to provide Christian education for church members and the community. We are part of the worldwide system of Seventh-day Adventist schools, dedicated to educating the whole child: spiritually, mentally, and physically. MACS is managed by a local school board, under the supervision of the Superintendent of Schools of the Illinois Conference of Seventh-day Adventists.

A full course of study is offered for each grade, including instruction in the Bible. Along with a strong academic program, our ultimate goal is to help each student develop a strong and personal relationship with Jesus.

It is our aim to develop in our students the desire and ability to serve others and to become leaders wherever they are, and to create a desire for higher education that will prepare them to enrich the world with their abilities, clear thinking, and reasoning.

An education of this kind imparts far more than academic knowledge. It is the balanced development of the whole person. In Adventist education, homes, schools, and churches work together in preparing students for citizenship on this earth and in the New Earth to come.
