I came to SCA in the 10th grade from public school. I love the Christian school environment with smaller classrooms and a tight-knit community feel. I love the sports atmosphere at SCA where students and parents are highly involved in all aspects of sports.

Simpson Academy has a beautiful campus that welcomes you as you enter the campus. The school claims to be christian based and strives to uphold this claim. Chapel is held every week and each day begins with student led prayer heard throughout the school. SCA excels in athletics winning championships year after year but the school holds student's academic achievements and character in higher regard than sports. The staff and administration are student focused and go the extra mile to meet each student's academic needs. If I could suggest one thing to change it would be to encourage diversity among the student body.
