Overview
Founded in 1986, South Haven Christian School (SHCS) is located on a beautiful 28-acre campus in the heart of rapidly growing Robertson County, just a 30-minute drive from Nashville. Serving Families Throughout Middle Tennessee: Our students come from Springfield and communities throughout the surrounding area, including Adams, Cedar Hill, Clarksville, Coopertown, Goodlettsville, Greenbrier, Joelton, Madison, Nashville, White House, and beyond.
Accreditation and Membership: South Haven Christian School is a member of the American Association of Christian Schools (AACS) and is dual-accredited by the Tennessee Association of Christian Schools (TACS) and Cognia. SHCS is also approved by the Tennessee Department of Education as a Category II school.
A Christ-Centered Education: SHCS is committed to providing students with a quality, Christ-centered education that emphasizes academic excellence, spiritual growth, character development, and preparation for life beyond the classroom.
Christian Community Schools embrace a holistic approach to education which includes faith, virtue, and knowledge.
We believe that faith formation, character development, and academic achievement are all vital aspects of the educational process… preparing the student for life and eternity.
