Welcome to The South Carolina Independent School Association, where the future of education takes precedence and the nurturing of young minds is our most pressing commitment.  It is our distinct honor to introduce you to a realm where the perfect school is not just a dream, but a tangible reality.

The selection of an educational institution is a decision of paramount importance, one that reverberates through the foundational building blocks of a child's future. It is a choice that demands discernment, for the ideal school is not merely a place of learning but a sanctuary where potential is unlocked, and dreams are sculpted into existence.  In this pursuit, the allure of an independent school setting is unparalleled.  At SCISA, the virtues of intimate classroom sizes are the bedrock of our culture, fostering an environment where individual attention is not a luxury but rather a standard. Such settings are the bedrock of individualized instruction, ensuring that the curriculum is not just up-to-date but also tailored to the unique needs of each student.

Our independent schools are bastions of creativity and innovation, where teaching is not confined to the traditional, but extends to embrace initiatives that prepare our students for the challenges of an ever-evolving world. The benefits of this approach are manifold, encompassing not just academic excellence but also the development of the hole child preparing them for life's journey.

SCISA also provides opportunities for our highly qualified educators through professional development offerings which are a testament to our commitment to excellence. We believe that the growth of our educators is intrinsically linked to the success of our students. This philosophy extends to our students as well, who are encouraged to engage in state academic and athletic competitions, providing them with a platform to showcase their talents and learn the value of teamwork and perseverance.

We encourage you to reach out to our member schools, to schedule a visit, and to witness firsthand our vibrant campuses, meet the dedicated administrators, and interact with the passionate faculty.  It is only through this personal experience that you can truly discover if a school is the perfect fit for your child.

Thank you for considering our independent schools in your quest for educational excellence. We look forward to the opportunity to play a pivotal role in your child's journey of learning and discovery.

God Bless,

Robert T. Braciszewski, Executive Director
