This is a very good little school. The school has more than doubled in the last couple of years (around 180 students) and with that more opportunities for the kids. I have no regrets after pulling my kids from public school!! The staff and teachers are great and my kids are happy to be there!

They offer a private school education at an affordable price. They have high academic achievements with small class sizes. The teachers are amazing, this school has a family feel to it. Everyone is welcoming and my child gets excited to go to school every day. She loves that she has bible classes and enjoys all her classmates. They have a great drama, speech & athletic program.

SFCS offers an excellent early childhood program. The K3 and K4 classes are both highly academic and the curriculum meets all of the Minnesota standards for Kindergarten readiness. The programs features academic as well as social skill building opportunities. In addition to Math and Phonics, the children also have Bible, Social Studies, Music and Art. If you are looking for a fun, academic, Christian environment for your preschooler, please check SFCS out!
