About San Jose Christian School

Since 1959, San Jose Christian School has been partnering with Christian families to provide students with a strong foundation for life. We prepare students for academic success in high school and beyond, and we care deeply about each child's physical, social, and spiritual development as well. Every one of our committed Christian teachers has a passion for mentoring young people, so it's no wonder that SJCS students recount for years the meaningful relationships they formed during their time with us.

Our school community exhibits the kind of warmth and caring that is all too often absent in this day and age. With dynamic staff and wonderfully devoted parents, it's easy to see why the people at SJCS describe it as a family. Come to campus and experience for yourself the personal touch that sets San Jose Christian School apart.
