Full-Charge Bookkeeper

Impact Christian Schools
(7702 Old Sauk Road, Madison, WI 53717)

Impact Christian Schools is dedicated to developing new schools within the community while sustaining our Legacy Schools and providing specific services to affiliate schools.  We help each school in its pursuit of excellence in education by equipping their teams with quality professional development courses that no one school could manage on their own, providing fiscal management and leadership tools for principals, alleviating and enhancing the administrative arm for each school, and inviting new thought discussions to assure each school stays current with prevailing trends in education models.

ICS strives to eliminate “the business” of running a school. Our principals and faculty need and want to spend more time focused on each student's needs and development. ICS aims to centralize all fiscal management, HR services, Professional Development, and other administrative duties.
