Family & Student Work Credit

We believe that Sunrise Christian Academy is more than just a place we send our children daily. SCA is a Christian community committed to the enrichment of families through the education of students. Funding and family involvement are important components that allow SCA the capacity to provide each student with a variety of opportunities for growth. Much of the success of the academic and extracurricular programs at SCA depends upon the personal involvement of individuals to get the job done.
​​
Since involvement is so vital to our school, each family and student at SCA is required to participate in the Family and Student Work Credit program. For each school year, work credit hours begin on the first day of summer and end on the last day of school. Any hours not served by the end of the school year will be charged to your FACTS account. A $10 fee will be charged for each FWC hour not completed, and a $5 fee for each SWC hour not completed.
​
Required Hours
​
Family Work Credit – 40 hours or $400 Total (20 hrs. per semester at $10/each)
Student Work Credit – 10 hours or $50 Total (5 hrs. per semester at $5/each)
-
Parents, guardians, students, grandparents, or family members are eligible to perform Family Work Credit hours. Student Work Credit hours must be completed by the student.

Opting Out

If a family so desires, they may pay the $400 and be excused from FWC. For those families with just one child who is only attending half-day Kindergarten, the FWC amount is reduced to $200.
