The End of a Legacy


After much prayer, thoughtful discussion, and with heavy hearts, the West Sayville Christian School Corporation has voted to close the school at the conclusion of the 2024–25 academic year. WSCS will not reopen for the 2025–26 school year.

Founded in 1946, WSCS has served families in our community for nearly 80 years with a mission of providing Christ-centered, quality education. We are grateful for the generations of students, families, faculty, and supporters who have walked with us through the decades. The impact of this ministry is lasting and deep.

In recent years, however, the school has faced increasing financial challenges. While faithful donors have sustained the mission through generous support, the current financial model is no longer viable. Despite efforts to grow enrollment, expand programs, and explore various operational changes, the resources needed to responsibly and sustainably continue simply do not exist.

After careful consideration and much prayer, the School Board recommended — and the Corporation has affirmed — that WSCS cannot responsibly open for the 2025–26 school year.

This decision, while heartbreaking, was made to honor our staff, provide clarity for our families, and ensure a respectful and well-supported closure of the school.


At this time, the projected deficit for the 2025–26 school year is approximately $250,000. While the decision to close was not made lightly, if a significant and sustainable financial commitment were to be made soon, the School Board and Corporation would be willing to prayerfully reconsider this decision.

Our focus now is to finish the current school year strong, support our students and staff through the transition, and celebrate the rich legacy of WSCS.

We know this news is difficult, and we understand the sadness and questions that come with it. If you are a current WSCS family and have questions about transcripts, tuition, or other end-of-year matters, you will receive a separate communication with those details. 
Should you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please feel free to email [email protected].

Thank you for your prayers, support, and for believing in Christian education. Though this chapter is closing, the impact of WSCS lives on in the lives it has touched.

​With gratitude,
West Sayville Christian School Leadership

Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths.

Proverbs 3:5-6



About WSCS

In 1946, a group of concerned parents saw the need for quality Christian education and today, just as yesterday, the West Sayville Christian school is meeting that challenge and will continue to meet that challenge tomorrow.

West Sayville Christian School is an interdenominational independent Christian School dedicated to high academic and spiritual standards. As an extension of the home and church, the school guides children, grades Kindergarten through 12th, to a Christ-centered worldview and a personal relationship with God. 
In recent tests given nationwide and statewide these children scored competitively with area schools, both public and private. For over 75 years, quality Christian education including art, music, athletics, computers, library, technology and careers has been taught by caring Christian state certified teachers.  
   
 West Sayville Christian School believes that since God created and sustains everything through His son, Jesus Christ, the world and life are a revelation of Himself. Therefore, all areas of learning must be taught from a Christian perspective, and with full recognition that God is the author of all knowledge and truth.
