Info

sfcc The college established contact with the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools during its first year of operation, and was fully accredited during the third year of operation. Since its inception, SFCC was designated as the Area Technical School to serve Hardee and Highlands counties and, later, DeSoto County. Since 1965, the college has grown considerably in student enrollment and physical facilities. In October 1968, construction of the nine-building permanent campus was began in Highlands County. The college moved into the new facility in early January 1970. The Highlands Campus now consists of 228 acres with more than 30 buildings, including a 1,460-seat Theatre for the Performing Arts and a 1,500-seat gymnasium. The college also offers classes at many other locations in the tri-county area. The overall growth of the college reflects the community’s support of and participation in SFCC’s programs. In 2002, the college received donations of land in DeSoto and Hardee counties to construct new campuses. The new, full-service campuses were completed in 2003, and each of the 30,000 square-foot facilities provide all student services, a library, bookstore, general classrooms, computer labs, a large number of classrooms that are wired for two-way interactive television, two large technical program areas, and a student lounge area. The DeSoto Campus is located north of Arcadia at the corner of Gibson and Turner Roads near the DeSoto County High School and the County Agri-Civic Center. The Hardee Campus is located on Highway 17 north of Wauchula between Bostick and Sauls roads. SFCC evolved from a small college into a mid-sized one that annually serves approximately 19,000 residents of DeSoto, Hardee, and Highlands counties. The college has matured into a responsible and responsive institution of higher learning that provides the community with quality academic programs, specialized technical training, continuing workforce education and adult education, community services, cultural experiences, collegiate athletics, informational services, and programs which enrich the quality of community life. SFCC is pleased with the prestige its faculty and graduates have received. This reputation has been earned through effective and concerned teaching. The continued success of the college depends upon superior teaching and the faculty members are selected with this quality in mind. SFCC believes its student-centered approach to learning will help its graduates meet the challenges of our fast-paced and rapidly changing society.
