Parent Comments

"I have had children in public and private schools all over Chattanooga. The thing that stands out about SMCS is the family-like atmosphere and the amount of individualized attention given to each child. SMCS is absolutely the best."

SMCS has exceeded our expectations in providing a quality education for our child. [The teachers] saturate our children with God’s Word and focus on character development, all without sacrificing academic excellence.

"We have been amazed at how well our child's teacher really knows him: his nature, character, and heart as well as his academic strengths and weaknesses."

"My children wake up excited to come to school each day. One of them even asked why there couldn't be school on Saturday!"

"Even though my children graduated from SMCS several years ago, when they have a day off from their current school, they beg to go back and visit the teachers and students at SMCS for the day."

“One of SMCS’s greatest strengths is that the staff takes a holistic approach to child development.”

“SMCS’s Christian leadership and loving environment makes for well-rounded students.”

“My child received an excellent educational foundation at SMCS that will help him succeed in his new school environment and in his future endeavors.” (The parent underlined it)

“I think one of the greatest dangers of a Christian school is developing a sense of elitism or legalism. I have never felt or sensed that spirit at SMCS from the Board or staff, which is extremely important to the well-being of the students.”

“SMCS’s teachers have the ability to work with a child’s weaknesses as well as to recognize and encourage the child’s strengths.”

"Each year at SMCS, my child comes home after the first week of school and declares, 'Mom, I have the best teacher in the whole school this year!'"

“My children learned to love themselves and others.”

“At SMCS, my child developed a sincere heart.”

"We were initially attracted to SMCS because of the Christian Worldview that is foundational to everything that is taught."
