Meet the Staff
Sheets Memorial Christian School is a school dedicated to hiring teachers and staff who are passionate about serving Christ and partnering with families to raise children who are both prepared for the life ahead of them and equipped to impact the world for Christ. They wholeheartedly believe in the SMCS mission, so much so that all of them have children who attend or have children who graduated from SMCS.
The employees of Sheets Memorial take their role in the lives of your children very seriously. Besides teaching with a biblical truth and a firm grasp of God’s work in the world around us, many of our teachers and staff mentors pray for the kids regularly. SMCS teachers and staff believe that children need a safe place for their education — to learn, to explore, and grow in the Word of God.
We invite you to learn more about our teachers and staff by clicking the links below. And if God lays it on your heart, please pray for them. It is both challenging and rewarding to be entrusted with the lives of these amazing kids.
