Since 1982, Santa Clarita Christian School (SCCS) has been Santa Clarita’s largest and most dynamic Christian education program available for K-12 students. Though academic excellence and athletic distinction are two key components of our school, we also excel in spiritual development, servant leadership and creative expression. This balanced education allows the needs of individual students to flourish in their areas of giftedness.
SCCS is a private Christian school located geographically within the William S. Hart School District in Santa Clarita, California with an enrollment of 515 students in grades K-12. There are approximately 185 students in grades 9-12.
SCCS is officially registered as a private school in the state of California, is accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) and is a member of The Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI).

Athletics is an important extension of Santa Clarita Christian School (SCCS) and participation in the athletic program provides valuable lessons for students, such as teamwork, sportsmanship, winning, losing and hard work. SCCS’s sports program exists to develop student’s hearts and minds through participation in interscholastic athletics.
SPORTS
SCCS offers a variety of fine arts and extracurricular activities such as band, choir, and drama and several service groups.
SCCS also sponsors grade-level trips and school events such as spirit week, seniors appreciation week, a spring art show, leadership groups, and spiritual life retreats.
Every Spring, SCCS junior and senior high students volunteer during a unique, two-day event called iServe. iServe begins with the help of SCCS teachers who select locations
and activities that are closest to their hearts. These service projects are then presented to the students in a special kick-off chapel.
With eager hearts, SCCS mounts an army of student volunteers who go out into the community and serve others by cooking meals, making baby blankets for single moms, playing games and eating with the elderly, digging trenches and building fences, to name a few. At SCCS we see the importance of developing servant hearts, building leadership qualities and making faithful disciples for Christ; attitudes that will stay with the students through their school years and into adulthood.
