Dearborn Christian School offers a Christian education for preschoolers through eighth graders, and is hosted by the attached Dearborn Christian Fellowship church. Students, however, are not required to be part of families who attend the church.
Students at the school receive both an academic and spiritual education, and attend chapel once per week during school hours. Students who are Dearborn residents are eligible to ride public school buses to Dearborn Christian School.
The school is funded by the Dearborn Christian School Society, a non-profit organization made up of parents, alumni and other interested parties.
