As a parent, I love that I can talk openly with the Dean, Mr. White. He shows genuine care and compassion for each student. I appreciate the positive changes he is making at SCS. My children love attending SCS. Although it is a financial sacrifice for us to send them there, my husband and I think it is important for their future and we will do everything we can to keep them in SCS.

SCS brought structure to our home so many years ago when we first joined. Partnering with SCS in my daughter's development academically and spiritually has been the absolute best. The school is diverse, secure, and the administration has our best interest in mind. A change I would like to see is more fellowship opportunities with other families.
