Sheets is celebrating 50 years of excellence in Christian education. Great atmosphere where leadership and staff bring strong Biblical foundation to education and other programs. Good experience for students in athletics, band, student government, etc. Look for Sheets to build on the momentum of the past 50 years and really grow over the next 5-10 years.

50 years of Biblical education...what a milestone. From watching Alumni serve their communities as Doctors, Lawyers, Missionaries, Teachers, Moms, Dads, Pastors, Small Business Owners, etc. we knew this was the place for our little one as well to learn and grow. So much history, so much heritage....This school is one of the best decisions we have ever made.
