We enroll any family desiring assistance. We require families respect our values, and raise and educate their children to become moral, upstanding citizens. SCS provides services for Pre-Kindergarten - 12th grade. A family can provide education for their children through a wide range of approaches (workbooks, textbooks, online homeschooling, group study, summer school, concurrent enrollment, tutor, etc.) Student can graduate from high school and earn a diploma. Beside the traditional Christian homeschool family, every type of family uses this program (actors, athletes, lawyers, teachers, single parents and politicians).
