Strengthening Christian Schools

In close collaboration with our member schools, we provide services that include policy development, leadership and governance training, finance and development mentoring that all, ultimately, support learning. Our Directors of Learning work with schools to maintain relevant and distinctively Christian curriculum, instruction and assessment to meet the needs of all learners enrolled in our schools.

The Society of Christian Schools in British Columbia was formed four decades ago by a group of schools who could see the value of pooling resources and working together. Today, we serve a wide variety of Christian schools, both in denominational affiliation and in organizational structure. Our basis and principles are biblically based and can be ascribed to by all protestant evangelical Christians. Membership requires agreement with our constating documents and is paid by an annual fee based on student enrollment.

Not only does membership give your school access to a wide array of SCSBC services, workshops and conferences, resources and the SCSBC Member Portal, but it also puts the expertise of our staff as close to you as an email or phone call. And membership brings your school into community with over forty other Christian schools in British Columbia, a community that is characterized by cooperation and mutual support.
