We provide flexible half-day schedules and before- and after-school care to fit busy family needs. Learn more about our Preschool program and how we nurture your child’s development.

Children need to be 5 years old by September 1 of the school year to start Kindergarten. This ensures they are developmentally ready to thrive in a structured, Christ-centered environment where they build strong academic, social, and spiritual foundations. If applying mid-year, a current report card may be requested. For more details on our Kindergarten program and admissions, feel free to explore our elementary school information and application process.

We welcome students in grades 1–12 to spend a half or full day shadowing a current student to experience daily life at our school. Shadow days are available for Elementary, Middle, and High School students, typically on Tuesdays from 8:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., including lunch. To schedule, please submit a shadow request with your preferred date at least one week in advance so we can prepare a great visit. For middle and high school students, your child will be paired with a student guide to help make the day meaningful and fun. Learn more and book a shadow day here.

Sheboygan Christian School serves students from 3K (3-year-old kindergarten) through 12th grade, welcoming children at every stage from preschool to high school. Families can apply starting with our youngest learners in 3K, progressing through elementary (K-5), middle school (6-8), and high school (9-12). Each stage offers tailored learning and community support to help your child thrive. To learn more about applying or specific grade availability, visit our enrollment process and apply for enrollment pages.

Admissions at Sheboygan Christian School open October 1 each year for the next school year. Early decision enrollment runs from October 1 through December 31, with priority consideration given to siblings of current students, staff children, and graduating 8th graders from Oostburg Christian School. Since seats fill quickly and some grades may reach capacity, families are encouraged to apply as early as possible.

If you apply after the early decision period or if your child’s grade is full, you may still submit an application to be placed in a waitpool. Enrollment decisions may be deferred when seats are limited, and acceptance is not guaranteed, but families will be notified if a spot becomes available.

Learn more about the enrollment process and current availability to plan your next steps.

To apply, please complete our online application and submit grade-appropriate documents:
– Preschool (3K, 4K, K): No extra paperwork unless applying mid-year for Kindergarten, then provide the latest report card.
– Grades 1–12: Submit last year’s and current report cards.
– Home School: Include report cards, a list of recent courses, and a Home School Assessment completed by SCS.
– Special Education: Provide the most recent IEP or 504 Plan if applicable.

In addition, each family is asked to submit one Pastor’s Recommendation Form and for parents to complete a form acknowledging their agreement with the school’s Statement of Foundational Beliefs.

After applying, schedule a meeting and bring a certified birth certificate and immunization records. Learn more about the full process here.

In most cases, new students do not need to take a placement test or academic evaluation as part of the admissions process. Admissions decisions are typically based on a review of prior school records, such as report cards and transcripts, along with family meetings and application materials.

Students coming from a home school environment may be asked to complete an academic assessment to help ensure appropriate grade-level placement. In addition, the administrative team may request further assessments for any applicant if more information is needed to support a smooth academic transition, though this is not required in every case. Our goal is always to place students where they can thrive academically and feel confident as they begin at Sheboygan Christian School.

Once we have your completed application, campus visit, and all necessary documents, our enrollment team shares your file with school administration for review. This process usually takes up to 2 weeks but may take longer if your child’s grade has many applicants. Some decisions may be deferred due to high interest or limited seats. You will be contacted as soon as a decision is made, and you’re welcome to check in anytime. Learn more about the enrollment process and current availability to plan your next steps.

Siblings of current students do receive priority in admissions at Sheboygan Christian School. Each year starting in mid-September, siblings of enrolled students, children of staff, and local 8th grade graduates have early access to apply before open enrollment begins October 1. If a grade is full, accepted siblings are placed in a waitpool with priority over new applicants. This helps keep families connected and supports a strong community. For more details on enrollment timing and priority, please visit our enrollment process.

Our high school students perform very well on college readiness tests.

For the past three years, Sheboygan Christian School has ranked among the top two high schools in Sheboygan County. This strong academic preparation helps our graduates gain admission to colleges such as Duke, Notre Dame, and the University of Wisconsin–Madison. For more about our academic results and college preparation, explore our high school academics and academic results.

New students at Sheboygan Christian School are expected to meet both academic and behavior standards that reflect our Christ-centered community. Academically, students should demonstrate a strong work ethic, respect, and perseverance, aiming to achieve their best potential while developing good study habits. Behaviorally, we look for students who:

• Reflect Christ in words and actions
• Show honesty, integrity, and respect for others
• Cooperate with school policies and respond well to guidance
• Exhibit positive qualities like friendliness and responsibility

For middle and high school, maintaining academic progress and leadership qualities is important. Families can learn more about our new student onboarding process and academic expectations.

Sheboygan Christian School provides student devices, so families do not need to supply their own.

For elementary students, the school uses mobile laptop carts that teachers access when technology supports the lesson or learning objective. Technology is used intentionally and age-appropriately.

For middle and high school students, Sheboygan Christian is a 1:1 Chromebook school. Devices are issued by the school for student use during the school year and are returned at the end of the school term. All school-issued devices include monitoring software to promote student safety and support academic integrity.

This approach allows technology to enhance learning while maintaining appropriate boundaries and oversight at every age and stage.

At Sheboygan Christian, we use a variety of online learning tools across all grade levels to support student success.

Elementary and Middle School: Students work with Chromebooks and smart boards, using Google Slides, Sheets, and Docs for assignments. They also explore Web 2.0 tools like blogs and wikis to build digital literacy.

Middle and High School: Coding is introduced through platforms like CodeHS for JavaScript programming. Audio and video editing tools such as Audacity help develop creative tech skills.

We prioritize safe, supervised technology use that enhances collaboration, problem-solving, and critical thinking for every student’s growth. Learn more about our technology curriculum and elementary school program.

Sheboygan Christian School does not offer a fully online or hybrid program, but high school students may have limited online learning opportunities as part of their on-campus schedule.

For high school students, if a desired course is not offered on campus, the school has a process to approve accredited online coursework. When approved, students complete this work during a scheduled study hall period within the regular school day, allowing flexibility while maintaining accountability, oversight, and alignment with graduation requirements.

For elementary students, there are no online or hybrid classes. Technology is used intentionally and age-appropriately through teacher-directed lessons using mobile laptop carts when it supports learning objectives.

This approach ensures students benefit from in-person community and instruction, while still allowing flexibility and customization at the high school level when needed.

Teachers at Sheboygan Christian use technology in many engaging ways across all grade levels. In elementary and middle school, students work with interactive tools like Google Slides, Sheets, and Docs, and explore coding basics with programs like OpenOffice and CodeHS. Video creation and editing are part of learning too, helping students tell stories and develop creativity. High school classes dive deeper with programming languages like JavaScript and Python, web design, and digital projects. Technology supports hands-on learning, critical thinking, and real-world skills, all rooted in a Christian worldview. Learn more about our technology curriculum.

We keep students safe online and in digital spaces through intentional instruction, supervision, and clear safeguards. Our technology classes teach digital footprints, internet safety, privacy settings, and how to recognize scams, helping students build responsible online habits.

For middle and high school students, Sheboygan Christian is a 1:1 Chromebook school. Devices are issued by the school for use during the school year and are returned at the end of the school term. All school-issued devices are monitored using GoGuardian, which helps promote student safety and supports academic integrity.

For 5th–8th graders and their parents, we also host special presentations with local police to address social media risks and responsible use. Across all grades, technology use is age-appropriate, intentional, and supervised. In addition, students have access to our Speak Up / Speak Out program, which allows them to anonymously report concerns or anything that makes them feel unsafe. We partner with families and provide additional support through our Student Services Team.

Sheboygan Christian School teaches responsible tech use at every level with age-appropriate focus:

Elementary: Technology is integrated intentionally and supervised closely to ensure digital safety. Students use smart boards and Chromebooks while learning critical thinking and collaboration.

Middle School: Classes cover internet safety, digital footprints, privacy settings, and scams. We also host events with local experts to educate students and parents on social media responsibility.

High School: Students explore computer ethics, programming, and ethical tech use through courses like Introduction to Technology and Computer Programming. We emphasize applying a Christian perspective to technology.

Together, we guide students to use technology wisely and respectfully in a digital world.

Screen time at Sheboygan Christian School is intentional and varies by age, subject, and learning goal. We do not overuse technology; instead, we teach with and through technology while also valuing screen-free learning, discussion, and hands-on experiences.

For younger students, screen time is limited and purposeful. Technology is typically used only when teachers reserve laptop carts for specific lessons, projects, or skill-building activities.

As students get older, screen time increases in a developmentally appropriate way. Middle and high school students use devices for tasks such as note-taking, research, presentations, and coursework, while still engaging regularly in face-to-face instruction, collaboration, and discussion.

Overall, technology is one of many learning tools used to support instruction, not the focus of the school day, and is balanced with meaningful, in-person learning experiences.

We offer special presentations for parents and students, like the Online and Social Media Safety Event for 5th-8th graders and their parents. This event features expert insights on managing social media’s impact and includes resources and recommendations to help families guide responsible tech use at home. We encourage parents to join these sessions and have ongoing conversations with their kids about safe and balanced screen time. Learn more about this and other family support opportunities through our parent resources.

Sheboygan Christian School’s preschool program is designed around a developmental, play-based learning model that supports how young children grow, learn, and explore best. Through hands-on activities, guided play, and meaningful routines, students build early academic, social, and motor skills in a nurturing environment.

Our preschool is an accredited program led by certified, experienced teachers who understand early childhood development and care deeply about each child. Because preschool is part of our P–12 school community, families benefit from aligned calendars, consistent schedules, and the opportunity to have younger and older siblings on the same campus.

We also support working families with extended care options from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., providing full-day coverage in a safe, Christ-centered environment. Together, these elements create a preschool experience that is intentional, supportive, and thoughtfully connected to a child’s educational journey.

Enrollment is open to children of all faiths regardless of race, color, or national origin, whose parents accept, as the foundation of their child’s instruction, the Basis and Principles of Article III of our School’s Constitution which states the following:

The basis of the Sheboygan Christian School Association is the infallible and inspired Word of God, the Holy Bible, interpreted according to the Reformed Standards. (The Belgic Confession, The Heidelberg Catechism, and The Canons of Dort.) It is not an ecclesiastic organization. The government of the “Sheboygan Christian School Association” shall be autonomous. It is based upon the three-fold office of the believer — Prophet, Priest, and King.

We do ask parents to attend church. Parents are also required to sign a statement of belief.

Church attendance as a family is a key part of raising a child. A Christian school can also be another key component. When students are raised in a Christian home, attend a Christian school and attend a Bible believing church, the child is going to receive a solid foundation for life.

We are not under the authority of a church denomination or group. We are a parent governed school, made up of families that attend over 35 churches in a tri-county area. We have families of many denominations.

We teach from a perspective that all of life belongs to our sovereign, Holy God. Because of our sin, we are unable to save our world or ourselves on our own. However, Jesus Christ has paid the price of man’s sin and in doing so has freed us to live lives of joyful service, free of guilt. We educate our students to be salt and light, transforming society in the name of Jesus Christ.

Yes, our school awards grants to families based on family need and the amount of funds available in the scholarship fund. Our school also participates in the WI Parental Choice Program. Please click here for more information about tuition and aid.

A family is required to apply to a school selected third party company. That company then generates a report and sends it back to the school, identifying the families that need the most financial aid. Based on the amount of available funds, the school’s Finance Committee does its best to equitably distribute grants.

Our students are well prepared for a post secondary education. Our ACT scores over the past 5 years have averaged out to be 23.8. This score is based on all upper classmen who took a college readiness test, called the ACT. Our scores are well above local, state and national scores.

We currently have students enrolled at Duke, Marquette, Notre Dame, University of Wisconsin Madison, Georgia Institute of Technology, and a host of other colleges and universities.
