Eligibility & Partnership
We view admissions as a partnership between home, church, and school. To ensure that SCS is the right fit, we look for alignment in faith and commitment to student growth. At Southside Christian School, enrollment is shaped by partnership. One parent must profess a personal faith in Christ, be active in a like-minded church, and provide a pastor reference. We discern admission for students with learning differences through individual review, ensuring we can support them well. Academic readiness, discipline history, and alignment with our values all guide our approach, including a required uniform policy.
