I have a child in both SCCS and LFPS. We are a military family and every time we talk about leaving, we are sick about our children losing this FAMILY. The teachers and staff are amazing, caring, intelligent and truly LOVE our babies! I have been complimented in public on many occasions by people that "overhear" my children discussing and singing about Jesus as well as their manners and intelligence! I like to claim most of the manners and intelligence (DNA ;)) but these two schools mean so much to us as a FAMILY unit that we hesitate leaving at all! We LOVE the FAMILY of SCCS!

Our son attends the 4yr old class at Little Friends Preschool, part of SCCS. I cannot fully express in words how much this school means to our family. Our son is learning latin, art, music, in addition to his "reading/writing/aritimatic" and he LOVES it. What's more important is that I'm seeing his character develop into one after God's own heart. The teachers are outstanding and the administration knows everyone by name. They highly encourage family participation. I am not pentecostal or presbyterian, and I have never felt any specific denomination "pushed" on our family. In fact, it seems we've met people from all faiths there. What is "pushed" is the love of Christ and the expectation of Christ-like behavior. I could not have asked or dreamed of a better preschool experience for our son. What an honor it is to drop him off there every morning knowing that he is loved by his teachers and peers, prayed for by the Mom's in Touch group, and cared for by everyone he encounters. LFPS is a tremendous blessing to our family and they truly exemplify Christ in action. It's something they take seriously and something I see every single day when I am there.

Just so you understand by "Christian" they really mean something more akin to "Pentecostal". That's fine, but they soft-pedal that during the admissions process. We had an absolutely awful experience here. The administration supports teachers no matter how unprofessional their behavior. There is no acceptance whatsoever of children's different levels of abilities and temperaments. If Christianity means tolerance to you, then you should steer clear.

My daughter attends Little Friend Preschool and I absolutely love it. She does very well and the teachers are amazing. The classes aren't too big and it's very structured. My daughter learns so much and she loves going to school. The communication between the teachers and parents is also great. I always know what's going on. Definitely a great school and I would recommend it to anyone!

No. I have heard of teachers setting up FB pages on areas of study so students can use technology as a learning tool. All posts are public and private messages are disabled. I won't even friend former students. I do it as a rule-no hurt feelings.

No! As an educator, I don't want to be held responsible for what students are doing outside of the classroom.

Absolutely not. Most schools offer the homework question site through the school system. They do not need to be "friends" with their students through social networking sites.
