Spanish River Christian School was established in 1982 as a ministry of Spanish River Presbyterian Church.
Our purpose is to provide children who are capable of succeeding at or above grade level in a traditional classroom setting with a quality education where Christian truth and values permeate all areas of instruction. Spanish River Christian School provides Christian education for students in preschool through eighth grade.
At SRCS, we work in conjunction with the church and the family to help each child grow - both spiritually and academically.
