Core Values

Christ-Centered

Second Baptist School operates according to biblical principles, without apology or compromise, and roots its teaching in the Word of God to develop a biblical worldview across academic disciplines and in all areas of life. We affirm that, through faith in Jesus Christ, we are entrusted with the sacred privilege and high responsibility of maturing in our own walk with God and helping our students to do the same.

Pursuit of Excellence

Caring Community

Welcome from the Head of School

In 1946, Second Baptist School was established with the purpose of providing a place of biblical instruction and learning where students in pre-kindergarten through grade 12 could grow academically, spiritually, physically and socially. Today, we continue to do just that. One step on campus and you will see what it means to be part of the Second Baptist School family.

Second Baptist School is a Christian college preparatory school committed to developing a biblical worldview in students across education programs that include academics, arts and athletics. Upon graduation, we expect your child to possess the character, knowledge and skills to succeed in college and beyond. This happens through grounding our philosophy of education in God’s Word and hiring faculty and staff who love God, love students and love the pursuit of excellence in their craft.

As we look to the future, the ultimate focus of Second Baptist School is to serve as a leader in Christian education, both in Houston and in the global community preparing students to think critically, live biblically and lead courageously to impact the world for Jesus Christ. Leadership is a high calling and requires a clear mind, strong character and unshakable courage. The climate and circumstances of the world today have shown us that the educational landscape is changing. We look forward to continuing our work in developing leaders who impact the world for Jesus Christ.

At SBS, your child will be known individually, and your child’s gifts will be nurtured in a compassionate environment, allowing him or her to take risks and reach higher than ever thought possible. Life on our campus is fulfilled by a strong community of faith. Relationships are formed here that last for decades and strengthen the school we love so well.

As you discover more about SBS, I hope you will take time to meet our students, speak with faculty and staff and see firsthand what makes our community one of a kind.

I look forward to welcoming you to campus!

Gloria Dei,
Don Davis, Ph.D.
