ABOUT US
Sussex Christian School provides a quality, Christian education to children in PreK-8th grade.
For more than 65 years, families in Sussex County, NJ, and the surrounding areas have trusted SCS as a partner in their children’s Biblical-based education. The world is rapidly changing, but it’s always been our mission to prepare children to live fully for Christ with the ability to understand, evaluate, and transform their world from the foundation of God’s unchanging Word.

“My daughter has thrived at SCS. I am continually impressed with how well she is doing not only academically but also spiritually.
She comes home all the time with stories they have learned in devotions or Bible time. As a parent, to see your child learn to love the Lord and his word is such a blessing.”
The McLoughlin Family
“Faith needs to be encouraged not just in the home and church, but within school too. This is very important for our family.
Teachers pray over the students at the start of the day, and if one of the girls are out sick we get messages, notes, and videos of the class that prayed for our family. We love the joy that we see in our daughters at the end of the day, and we know that they love their teachers.”
The Kuperus Family
“It is an incredible blessing to have our kids enrolled in a school that is so in line with our beliefs as Christians. A place that not only challenges their minds but also strengthens their spirit.
In my opinion, what makes SCS so powerfully different is that it is not just a school you send your kids to, it is a community you can become part of. From the amazing principal, Mr. Waters, who receives our kids outside every morning, rain or shine, to the amazing teachers who always go the extra mile… It’s the amazing village that fosters the raising of amazing children.”
The Sanchez Family
“It was the best decision we ever made pulling them from public school. Great kids, teachers and parents can be involved. It’s a small school so everyone knows each other. Anyone thinking about it…go take a tour of the school or go to the next open house!”
The Solar Family
“SCS feels like family! Our kids are receiving a quality education in a safe Christian environment and they are loved!”
The Sytsema Family
“At SCS, we joined a family community that allowed us the opportunity to give our kids a faith based education.
Everyone involved, including staff, students and supporters, genuinely care and nurture each individual student. Each educational lesson learned, whether life or school related, has and continues to give my family a foundation of faith, respect, and community.”
The Klingler Family
“Sussex Christian School has been an invaluable part of our family’s life. As a proud graduate, I can attest to the exceptional education and strong foundation it provided me.
It’s incredibly rewarding to see my children now benefitting from the same nurturing environment. SCS is more than just a school; it’s a community that instills faith, knowledge, and character. We are truly grateful for the positive impact it has had on our family.”
The Kuperus Family
“Our children are being taught in an environment filled with the love of Christ. You can feel it when you walk down the halls.
We love how families can be involved in every event put on by the school. It is not the easiest thing to schedule the time in the busy day to day life, but relationships that grow from this time working together doing Kingdom work are truly a blessing.”
The Mann Family
“Auntie Allie gets to walk her nieces into school as she starts her last year at SCS! Living proof of Gods faithfulness!
So grateful for SCS; its families, teachers, administration and board who love and care for one another and where Jesus’ name is boldly proclaimed. Whether 3rd generation or starting your legacy for the first generation, SCS has the love of Jesus in its heart!”
The Sytsema Family
“We’re blessed to be able to send our kids to Sussex Christian, where they’re loved, nurtured mentally and spiritually and immersed in Gods love every day.”
-The Vellenga Family
