We`ve been at SCS for a few years now. We couldn`t ask for a better community to educate our kids. Each child is seen and cared for. SCS has gone above and beyond our expectations for a school.

Our family has been going to the school for 6+ years. We don't think of it as a school, but an extension of our family. We love the teachers, the hearts they have for God, and the attention our kids get with the small classroom sizes. We cannot imagine another school for our two boys. We love SCS!
