School Handbook



Our Mission Statement


To train children according to God’s purpose by providing a Christ-centered, safe, loving environment

where parents, board members and staff, in partnership, work to help each student achieve academic

excellence and spiritual growth.


Affiliation


Puget Sound Christian School is affiliated with South Lakeshore Christian Church, which is a nondenominational

Christian church. SLCC is affiliated by faith and practice with Christian churches

located in most countries of the world. This body of churches accepts the whole Bible as the Word of

God, but finds its authority for life in the scriptures of the New Testament, seeking simply to be the

church that was begun by Jesus Christ and the apostles whom He chose. Jesus Christ is the sole head of

His church. This church has no authoritative headquarters in this world. Each congregation of believers

is independent in the operation of internal affairs, but all are joined in the unity of faith and in

commitment of Jesus Christ as head over all things to the church.


School Board


Puget Sound Christian School is an independent school operated by a Board of Directors who provide

guidance, hire staff, provide financial management and oversight, and oversee the carrying out of the

mission of the school.

Board members are selected from interested members of the Christian community and serve for two

renewable terms. Once selected, board members agree to uphold exceptional Christian values, and give

of their time and talents to ensure that the school prospers and is successful in assisting parents in the

training of their children for the glory of God.
