DREAM BIG...

The vision of teaching minds, training hearts for God keeps us all looking onward and upward and dreaming big. The SCCS community is strengthened by the active contributions and involvement of all our families. Our work together, to dream big, assures that all SCCS students, now and in the future, will benefit from our great school.

We need the financial support above and beyond tuition to help us prepare students to live a life that is Christ-centered, academically sound and expressed to its fullest so they might positively impact the world for Christ, in a BIG way.

THE COST OF EXCELLENCE: Other than tuition, The SCCS Fund is the only source of immediately available, flexible funds to support the areas of greatest need. The majority of our resources support our students, faculty and staff.

LAST YEAR: Last year Santa Clarita Christian parents, students, alumni, grandparents, faculty and staff donated over $33,000 in support of the school’s mission by providing donations to The SCCS Fund. This generous giving helped to fill the “gap” and enable SCCS to offer valuable technology initiatives for our students.

The generous giving of enrolled families, alumni, grandparents and other donors who believe in our mission will help to fill the “gap” and enable SCCS to offer valuable initiatives and programs for our students.

GYM/CHAPEL IMPROVEMENTS Every SCCS student benefits from the use of our gym/auditorium. Big moments happen in this space each and everyday. Funding will be put towards resurfacing and rebranding the court and purchasing new floor covering so that the space can be more easily converted from an athletic venue to an auditorium/worship venue. Additionally, new lighting and enhancements to audio/visual technology will be included in this upgrade.

FACILITY ACCESSIBILITY & NEEDS-BASED TUITION ASSISTANCE SCCS is committed to making our facilities accessible to all students. To become ADA compliant and assure second floor classroom access to students, funding will be put towards an elevator/lift for building #2.
