SCCA returns to the foundational basics of learning — strong reading, writing, mathematics, history, and science — while building character through a Christ-centered worldview. We emphasize discipline, consistency, academic excellence, and leadership development both in the classroom and through athletics.
South Carolina Christian Academy School offers grades 6-12
South Carolina Christian Academy is currently in the process of pursuing accreditation appropriate for private Christian schools. We are intentionally building our academic, governance, and operational standards to align with recognized accreditation benchmarks while already meeting South Carolina instructional requirements. We have been approved by SCACS to help build that accreditation. Our commitment is to academic excellence, accountability, and continuous improvement as we grow.
Our academic calendar meets and exceeds South Carolina’s required 180 instructional days. Missions Days, academic testing days, and structured school events are counted as instructional time.
We prioritize student brain development and original thinking. Any AI-generated assignments submitted for academic credit receive an automatic failing grade. Students are expected to submit self-generated work that reflects their own understanding and effort.
We believe that homework should be purposeful and relevant to the learning objectives of each course. Our teachers assign homework as needed to reinforce classroom learning, and provide feedback to students to help them improve their understanding and skills.
To enroll at South Carolina Christian Academy, you need to submit an online application form and attend an interview with our admission team.
