James Island Christian School provides an opportunity for academic excellence within a Christ-centered environment that complements the teaching of the home and the church. We believe that the ultimate responsibility for the education of a child rests with the parent. Therefore, there must be a partnership between parent and school, each supporting and reinforcing the other. At James Island Christian School , we provide for the education of the whole child: spiritually, mentally, socially and physically. Truth, as revealed in God's word, is the foundation of all subject matter.
James Island Christian School is a testimony of the faithfulness of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. JICS is a ministry of James Island Christian Church and shares the same facilities. The school was founded in 1994. JICS is accredited by the S.C. Independent School Association (1995, 1999, Advanced Accreditation 2002), and a member of the Association of Christian Schools International (1994).
James Island Christian School is a college preparatory school. In a nurturing environment of small classes, JICS academic requirements exceed standards set by the State of South Carolina for their most respected scholarship programs. JICS also provides opportunities to earn college credit while still in high school. The average SAT score for the graduating class was 1190. Some of the distinctive features of our educational program include: Houghton Mifflin Language Arts and Math, Bob Jones University Science and Heritage Studies, Computer Technology, Foreign Language, Regulated Class Size, Drama/Musical Programs, Art, Band, National Beta Club, Envirothon and Student Government.
Extracurricular activities play an important role in the development of the whole child. A wide variety of activities are offered in order to meet the individual needs of our students. We participate in SCISA-AA volleyball, soccer, basketball, swimming, tennis, softball, and golf.
James Island Christian School serves grades K4-12th. JICS admits students of any race, color, national or ethnic origin to all rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school.
"IN CHRIST ARE HIDDEN ALL THE TREASURES OF WISDOM AND KNOWLEDGE." Colossians 2:3
