LifeWise – Heath Church

LifeWise

Christian education during the school day.

Heath City Schools students learn Bible-based character during released time — at no cost to families and no cost to the district.

Program overview

One hour a week that shapes a life forever.

LifeWise partners with Heath City Schools to offer released-time religious instruction — a legal, parent-permitted program that has existed in Ohio schools since 2018. Students walk to our building, learn a lesson, eat a bag lunch, have an activity and return to class.

Bible-based character

Age-appropriate lessons on honesty, courage, forgiveness and service.

No cost, no class time lost

Released-time instruction scheduled around core academics, funded entirely by donors.

Trained, screened teachers

Every adult is background-checked and trained in child safety before day one.

Parent-directed

Enrollment is always the family's choice, and you can step out at any time.
