Overview
Salisbury Christian School strives to honor Jesus Christ by offering a comprehensive educational program founded upon Biblical truth and academic excellence to Infant-12th grade students. We believe that each child is different and needs an individually-tailored educational experience, so we take full advantage of our small class sizes, providing our students with differentiated, challenging learning opportunities.
We believe that our dedication to Jesus Christ makes us distinctive and calls us to a higher level of achievement. God calls us to excellence in all aspects of our lives including how we educate your children. We give our students abundant opportunities both inside and outside the classroom to discover who God is, who He has created them to be, and to experience Him in their own lives.
We provide high-level academics,championship-winning athletics, and award-winning art and fine arts programs to help develop our students into well-rounded human beings.
Ultimately, we seek to create students who come to graduation well prepared for their future. We welcome you and your children to join us in this endeavor!
At Salisbury School, we believe strongly that the skills and good habits necessary for intellectual and social growth are best learned at an early age.
Toward that end, a caring, talented, and responsive faculty strives to foster a lifelong love of learning in each child.
Students experience a carefully structured curriculum that stresses academic excellence and respect for each child's growth and learning patterns.
They work in an atmosphere of trust, cooperation, and mutual respect.
Our Upper School division extends this tradition of excellence into the high school years.
A demanding college preparatory curriculum and the use of a notebook computer by all students build a firm foundation for the challenges of higher education.
At Salisbury School, students find academic challenge, high expectations, individual attention, and boundless opportunities to be involved in their education.
