As a parent with two children at this school, I have been very happy over the past 5 years. The teachers have been great, and the education has been outstanding! I would also like to say that this school is not, nor ever will be perfect... no school ever will be... so if you are sending your child to a private christian school in order to seek a perfect environment then don't bother. But, if you are sending them for a christian/biblical education, if you are sending them to be surrounded by christian teachers and a staff who care and love and pray for your kids, if you are sending them to grow their faith at home as well as at school, if you are sending them to receive a wonderful education... then SEND them!

The school is struggling with the economy. Class sizes will probably be bigger this next year (unless several families drop out)and they are going to change the handbook to fit the class size. Average class now is not allowed to get bigger than 22, they are going to change it to 30! That is public school size. Discipline is different if you or someone in your family gives big money. People are asked to be on school board- so if you aren't asked, you don't know about decisions until they are made. Then you just have to deal with them or leave. Parents don't get a say. It is turning in to more of a private school than a Christian one. Please pray before you send your child here. Ask hard questions about seeking God in the decision making. Close Quote
