Our Annual Alumni Breakfast was simply lovely — a morning filled with reminiscing, laughter, and celebrating so many special memories made at SOCS. 💛
We are incredibly grateful for our alumni and the lasting impact you continue to have on our school community.
A special thank you to Pastor Shelby Gemmen and Mr. Matt Pifer for coming to share and encourage our alumni. What a gift to gather together!

Our 4th graders had a wonderful day exploring history at the @tricitiesmuseum in Grand Haven! 🏛️
Students discovered how local history is preserved through more than 73,000 artifacts and exhibits featuring Victorian period rooms, agriculture, lumbering, maritime life, tourism, and everyday life from years past.
What a hands-on way to connect classroom learning to the rich history of our own community! 💛📚 #SOCSLearns #FieldTripFun #LocalHistory

Today’s chapel hit different. 🛡️
We separated into our family groups and were reminded of something powerful-alone, we’re vulnerable… but together, we’re armored.
God’s truth is our shield. When we stand united, the enemy’s tricks don’t stand a chance. We celebrate His gift of truth, grace, and victory today and every day.
#ArmorOfGod #StandFirm #GodsTruth #StrongerTogether
Our amazing Parent Partners filled our students’ lockers with God’s truth this week — reminders of who they are and how deeply they’re loved. 💕
Students can never be told enough that they are chosen, seen, and called to love others well. This Valentine’s Day, we rest in the unshakable love of our Creator. 🤍

Speaking with parents and caregivers — both current and former — one thing is clear: weekly chapel is a favorite part of the week. The fellowship, the encouragement, and the warmth of the SOCS community is truly something special.
We would love for you and your student
to come tour our school and experience a chapel day with us!
A JOY-ful thank you to @JOY99 for bringing the JOY this morning and reminding us that all hope can be found in Christ alone. 💛
