The dreams we have for our children are based on hopes for a lifetime of success and happiness. At Santa Barbara Christian School we believe the foundations of those dreams are built on a rich academic program coupled with an emphasis on spiritual and moral development. Our students learn through a program that values and develops critical thinking, innovation, creativity and foundational skills to prepare them for life after graduation. As you explore our web site, we hope you sense the dynamic learning environment we have created in order to prepare our students for success in all their future endeavors.
Though academic success is important to us, it is meaningless unless we also develop students who are positive contributors to our society’s moral fabric. We instill Christian values in our children by weaving biblical principles into every component of our elementary program, and the result is a child who is prepared for leadership and service. The outstanding SBCS staff possesses an authentic care and love for the students who grace our halls every day, which creates a nurturing environment that is unique to Santa Barbara. SBCS delivers the education every child deserves, but very few children are fortunate enough to receive!
Beyond academics and spiritual and moral development, being part of the SBCS family means being a part of a tight knit community of people that truly makes our school a special place. SBCS is a school where lifelong friendships are developed and where alumni stay connected long after graduation.
Thank you for taking the time to explore Santa Barbara Christian School. I pray that God will bless you as you seek to make the best decisions for your child’s future.
Sincerely,
Christopher Rutz
Head of School
