Looking at most of these reviews they are 3 years or older. The school has since had administration changes and increased rigor in academics and athletics. Test data is released to parents and our children score above state and national averages. They also release scholarship information and out of 14 students alone last year, those seniors received over a million dollars in scholarships. Not only are the academics challenging, but many athletic teams are state champions or at least place in state. In addition, the family atmosphere, helpful and well educated teachers, and Christian education my children receive is outstanding. With local school districts not being safe and having poor test data, it is a no brainer to send my kids here. Tuition was lowered to around $6000 which helps tremendously. I could go on and on about how helpful the administration and faculty are. The only reason I gave a 4 instead of a 5 is that I believe there is always room to improve somewhere. The school seems to always strive for excellence and continue to improve even more every year. My advice is to check it out for yourself. Call and schedule a tour. Speak with administration and ask any questions you would like about the school. Once you have this first hand experience, then judge for yourself. WMCS is definitely the right choice for us k-12.

I currently have 3 children attending WMCS, 2 in high school and 1 in elementary. We came to this school from a public school because I no longer felt that public education was no longer willing to offer my children what they needed to reach their full educational potential. My children have blossomed at this school; they are happier here than they were in the school that they attended for 8 yrs. They are being challenged (educationally and technologically), they have wonderful, caring teachers, and they are being educated in a Christian, family environment. It may be a small school, but my children NEVER lack for extracurricular activities. The staff is working very hard to give my children the best education that they can be given to prepare them for college. I would recommend this school to anybody!

This school is going in the wrong direction--tuition too high, TOO MUCH EMPHASIS ON SPORTS. Need to get back to the basis of teaching and forget about Uniforms, petty rules, Spirit Days.

West Memphis Christian School is a trendsetting school embedded in a Christian environment using 21st century tools to equip 21st century learners to be productive and spiritually-grounded citizens in a digital world. At our core we are inexcusably focused on spiritual growth and development. We are driven to prepare our students to be ready for the future God has prepared for them. That future looks much different than what exists yesterday and will even evolve tomorrow. Therefore as a school we adapt to changes and collaborate with one another to think critically to solve the challenges of tomorrow. Last year's senior class received $1,946,015.00 in scholarship offers for many different universities. With 28 in the class, that's an average of $65,000 per student!!

Wonderful. We came to WMCS for the academics and sports programs, we received a network a awesome teachers who are Christ centered but also want and strive for academic excellence. The school is modern in its facilities and education. The iPad curriculum is great for parents and students planning to attend universities.
