What people are saying

by a parent

My child has attended Southside Christian School (SCS) for 3 years and we love it. Anyone looking for a Christian school that actually teaches the Bible and helps students understand the world around them in light of the Bible needs to check out SCS. The staff and administration do not shy away from controversial subjects, rather they teach the students how to work through issues and how to find out what the Bible says about it. This is a truly Christian school for truly Christian families.

SCS is a member of the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI) and they are currently working toward accreditation with ACSI and AdvancED. Close Quote
