EXPERIENCE the James Island Christian Community

James Island Christian’s mission is to provide an opportunity for academic excellence within a Christ-centered environment that complements the teaching of the church and school.

JAMES ISLAND CHRISTIAN SCHOOL IS.... a wonderful community that unites in a passion for Christian education. We are tremendously blessed to have dedicated faculty who know and love their students and are experts in their field. We provide a beautiful campus that is safe and secure so students can focus on learning and growing into the young men and women God has created them to be.

In all things, we teach and learn through a Biblical worldview. Our academic program begins in our lower school, where our environment is intentionally designed to develop students who are inquisitive, engaged and challenged to discover while building a solid foundation. Our middle school is designed to allow students to explore their unique gifts and talents through new experiences and areas of study while supporting adolescent learners. The high school provide strong academic offerings which allow students to fulfill their interests, embrace intellectual curiosity and encourage students to wrestle with life’s questions from a Biblical worldview.

We desire to provide all of our students an educational experience that is balanced and supportive. Our mission is to prepare students for college and beyond spiritually, academically, socially and physically.

Thank you for your interest in James Island Christian School. We look forward to welcoming you to the JICS family!

Blessings, Cindy Hunter Head of School
