Our Mission

The mission of Santa Fe Springs Christian School is to partner with parents to equip and nurture children from a Christian world view, producing responsible, God-honoring, socially balanced, and academically strong life-long learners, who impact their world for Christ.

A Brief History

Your child’s future success is built on the foundations you lay in his or her elementary years. Santa Fe Springs Christian School wants to help in this vitally important process.

In 1967, Santa Fe Springs Christian School was founded and continues to provide its students, Kindergarten through 8th grade, with quality Christian education. Over the years, we have consistently scored one to two years above the national norms on standardized testing. As a result, our graduates have excelled in high school and college.

Why Santa Fe Springs Christian School?

At SFSCS, we approach the educational process, not as the “experts” who know what’s best for your child, but as partners with you.

What You Can Expect

You can expect your child to be taught by qualified, competent, Christian teachers in a loving, nurturing and structured environment. Our teachers hold a minimum of a Bachelor’s Degree and ACSI certification. Some teachers hold a California teaching credential. As partners in this venture, you can expect clear, open, honest and timely communication from our teachers and staff and a well-rounded program of academics, sports and the arts.

Our Goal

Our goal at Santa Fe Springs Christian School is to nurture and equip students from a Christian worldview, helping them to become academically strong, socially balanced and spiritually mature. Our students graduate with a deeper understanding of who Christ is, who they are in Him and where He plans to lead them next in their education.
