5th-6th Grade
Mount Olivet establishes a dynamic partnership with
families in the Christian education and faith development of their children. Children in 5th and 6th grades are invited to
enhance their faith through educational, service, and fellowship activities. Students experience the importance of Christian
friendships and faith for life. We focus on Jesus' call to serve others.
