About Us

About Us

Our Mission
In partnership with family and God, our mission is to: Nurture children spiritually, physically, academically and socially as they grow in Christ-likeness.

Our Vision
At Shepherd Christian School, as a Christian, PreK-8th grade school, faith is not separated from learning but integrated intentionally, resulting in a unique environment and community. We cultivate intelligent Christ followers who can articulate their worldview in a marketplace full of opposing ideas and ideology!

Our Beliefs

What are some of the values taught at Shepherd Christian School?
Some parents see things happening in some schools that may not reinforce what they want to see in the home. In fact, these things may run counter to what you want to see in the home. There are formative ages in PreK-8th where children need reinforcement at the school level, where they can see God in mathematics, experience Christ, in science, or understand biblical principles in history, and stay true to patriotic measures. I think we experience these values resonating with people.

What is the culture of learning like at Shepherd Christian School?
What you’re going to get is a much more kid-centered, concentric, individualized education. We can provide individualized attention to each student due to smaller class sizes. Students feel very loved at SCS. There is a sense of camaraderie on campus.

Why is the mission of Shepherd Christian School essential?
In today’s culture, we must be grounded and rooted in who we are in Christ. Our children cannot survive with shallow roots, which is why we provide the ability for them to build strong, deep roots. This way, when the storms come, the students can withstand every challenge they face in school and beyond.

What is Shepherd Christian School's educational philosophy?
Shepherd Christian School was established in 1997 with the core philosophy of Kingdom Education, bringing the home, church, and school into a partnership to train the next generation. Kingdom education is the life-long, Bible-based, Christ-centered process of leading a child into a new identity with Christ. At SCS, we develop a child according to his or her specific abilities given to them by God, so they feel empowered to live a life characterized by love, trust, and obedience to Him.
