MBCI is a Christ-centered middle and secondary school (grades 5 – 12) with a vision for equipping students to learn, love, and engage with the world around them. We approach education with a view that reaches far beyond the classroom. Students are nurtured in both character and faith; experiencing opportunities to become creative and effective problem solvers, communicators, and good stewards and citizens.
Established in 1945 by the Mennonite Brethren Churches in Winnipeg, MBCI has grown to include students from a diverse range of backgrounds and beliefs while remaining grounded in our Anabaptist tradition. Today, MBCI builds toward the future with the support of a wide community of students, families, alumni and friends of MBCI who share our commitment to preparing young people, not just for academic success, but for life.
MBCI provides innovative learning opportunities through programs and projects that include the best of what we know about how students learn and grow. Students engage deeply with curriculum content through well-designed projects, applying their own curiosity and hands-on problem-solving skills to real world questions. By working in teams, embedding technology as a tool for research and presentation, and learning to take risks, students develop the knowledge, 21-century skillset, curiosity and character they will need after graduation.
At MBCI, we liken education to tending a garden. Our labour, and investment, bears fruit both now and in the future.
When young people learn in ways that include purpose, meaning, and belonging, they are able to grow as multi-faceted and complex people. They acquire knowledge and not just content. They become citizens with the ability to think critically, understand what it means to live a Christ-centered life, and look beyond themselves and move into the world with compassion for all. When they leave MBCI, our students continue to shape their various communities and workplaces with their capacity for leadership, for overcoming challenges, and with discernment.
When you give to MBCI you are planting seeds. Some of the fruit of that planting is immediately apparent with the learning and growth that students experience during their years at MBCI. As they move out into the wider world, your gift is amplified for many years to come as students take with them all they have learned, and all of who they have become.
