At Countryside School, our purpose is to cultivate the hearts and minds of children through Christ-centered education that blends academic excellence with practical life skills. Located in a farm setting near Blakesburg, Iowa, we provide a nurturing environment where K–8 students learn the value of work, stewardship, and community while growing in wisdom, knowledge, and faith. Designed in the style of a one-room schoolhouse, our learning environment fosters collaboration, cross-age relationships, and a strong sense of shared community.

Our teaching is centered on honoring the Lord by preparing students to live with integrity, confidence, and a heart for serving God and others.

Our teaching team brings a combined 20 years of classroom experience and holds multiple Iowa teaching endorsements. These include K–6 Elementary Classroom, K–8 Reading, K–8 English/Language Arts, 5–12 English/Language Arts, K–12 English Language Learner, and 9–12 Special Education. Additionally, our team includes R.N.-licensed staff to support student health and care.
