Our family has had such a wonderful experience with Sunnyvale Christian School, and I truly can't…read morerecommend it enough.
Both of my daughters first started here during the summer program in 2025, and we loved the summer program so much that it became one of the main reasons we decided to enroll them for the regular school year. I highly recommend the summer program as well!
My younger daughter, Cassie, started in the Twos class and is now in the Threes class, while my older daughter, Zoe, started in Kindergarten and is now in First Grade. One of the things I love most about SCS is the small, close-knit community. The class sizes are small enough that everyone really gets to know one another. The preschool teachers know my elementary-aged daughter, the elementary staff know my preschooler, and there is such a wonderful sense that everyone is genuinely involved in caring for your children.
I have especially high praise for the preschool program. Miss Luna, Miss Portia, and Miss Linda have been incredibly sweet, thoughtful, patient, and caring with Cassie. You can tell that they are not only wonderful educators, but that they care for the children with the kind of warmth and tenderness you would hope for from a parent or grandparent. As a mom, that means so much to me.
I also really appreciate how organized and structured everything is. Seesaw is used in both preschool and elementary, and it has been such a great way for us to stay connected to what the girls are doing at school. We get photos and updates, as well as important announcements, activities, and reminders. The teachers and staff are very accessible and easy to talk to whenever you have a question or concern. For preschool, I also love that they provide healthy snacks throughout the day and give the kids plenty of outdoor and playground time.
We have been equally happy with the elementary program. Zoe had Miss Lee for Kindergarten, and we absolutely loved her. She had a wonderful Kindergarten year, and I really enjoyed the community of parents in her class and how involved everyone was. Since starting at SCS, Zoe has grown tremendously. She is much more confident, has become a wonderful reader, has built great friendships, and genuinely enjoys being at school.
Another thing I really appreciate is that the children have so many opportunities to grow outside of traditional academics. The Christmas musical involves both the preschool and elementary students, and the elementary students also have opportunities like the talent show. Mrs. Gonzales, the musical director, is excellent at what she does. It is amazing to see what she is able to bring out of the children through the musical program and performances. These experiences give the kids a chance to be creative, perform in front of others, discover their talents, and build so much confidence.
The school also offers great enrichment and after-school programs, and I love that the children still get plenty of playground time. One of my favorite things is seeing siblings from different grade levels run into each other on campus. There are so many families with multiple children attending SCS, and I think that says a lot about the school, parents want to keep their children here.
I also feel that SCS is very reasonably priced for the amount of care, school hours, enrichment, and community they provide. For our family, it has absolutely been worth it.
Most importantly, I love the Christian foundation of the school. The children attend chapel every Wednesday and are learning not only academics, but also about God, faith, kindness, character, and how to be good members of their community.
Looking back at how much both of my daughters have grown since starting here, in academics, confidence, friendships, independence, creativity, and faith, I am so grateful that we found Sunnyvale Christian School. I feel like they are being nurtured as whole children: mentally, physically, socially, creatively, and spiritually. We have been very happy here, and I would wholeheartedly recommend SCS to other families.
