My second grade student finished the year reading on a high school level. Her teacher was warm and loving and nurtured each student individually and the class as a whole. I would recommend this school to anyone. The students are not required to be Christian to attend but they are witnessed to and taught about Jesus through action and lessons. I am really glad to be a parent of a little Paladin!!!!! Close Quote
