Superintendent's Message

Benjamin AndersonWelcome to South Central Community School Corporation, home of the Satellites! On behalf of the Board of School Trustees and the staff at South Central, I welcome you. SCCSC serves approximately 1,000 students in pre-kindergarten through 12th grade. We are located in rural Union Mills, IN in southern LaPorte County. Here at South Central, we pride ourselves on a longstanding and rich tradition of academic excellence. As you browse our website, you will notice that we strive to provide numerous learning opportunities for our students. This enables us to offer a rewarding and well-rounded educational experience to all students at South Central.

Upon graduation, we want our students to be college, career, and life ready so that everyone has the ability to fulfill their dreams. Students at South Central Junior-Senior High School have a vast offering of dual credit, Advanced Placement, and vocational courses to choose from. We offer dual credit opportunities through Indiana University and Ivy Tech. We offer several CTE programs right here on campus (welding, PLTW engineering, PLTW biomedical sciences, agriculture, business, and more), as well as having a partnership with AK Smith, the LaPorte County Career and Technical Education Center. Students have the opportunity to participate in a variety of athletic and academic competitions and in the field of fine arts. South Central Junior-Senior High School is also a 1:1 school, where each student is issued an HP Chromebook.

Producing a student that is college, career, and life ready may be the ultimate goal, but the foundation for that success is established much earlier at South Central Elementary School. Our students are served by a phenomenal staff of caring professionals. SCE is also a 1:1 technology school, to provide a blended learning classroom environment. The blended learning approach aims to utilize technology to enhance traditional teaching methods. South Central Elementary School is a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, & Mathematics) certified school by the Indiana Department of Education; the ONLY school in all of LaPorte County to be certified. Our staff understands the importance of STEM is today’s world, and strive to provide meaningful opportunities to all students in this area.

As you can tell, we are proud of the students, staff, and families that call South Central home. We hope this website highlights positive student experiences and provides preliminary information about our community and schools. I am honored to serve as your superintendent and I look forward to assisting in making the education programming at SC a success for all! If you have further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Proud to be a Satellite,

Benjamin Anderson, Ed.S.
