I recommend Tabernacle Christian School to all parents, including those who are from other states or countries. My family moved to the U.S. 6 years ago, and both of my children attended Tabernacle; my older son was in the 8th grade, and younger one was in the 5th when they were enrolled. At the time,

However, the atmosphere in Tabernacle was really welcoming: all faculties took heartfelt care of my children, and my sons classmates were kind and generous to my children. Thanks to all their help and support, my sons and I were able to settle in easily. I deeply appreciate various aspects of Tabernacle School, especially the education that incorporates academic, physical, and spiritual values. My older son graduated from Tabernacle, went onto De La Salle High School, and currently attends New York University. My younger one graduated from Tabernacle, also attends De La Salle High School, and is currently a junior this year. In retrospect, I strongly believe that they owe their achievements to the excellent education provided at Tabernacle, which motivated my children to work hard and developed their ethics and values.

We recommend Tabernacle, but you must be aware of what you're signing up for. Our daughter has been at the school for several years, and we have nothing but great things to say about the teachers and the curriculum! That having been said, the administration of the school, while friendly and welcoming,

A book fair offered books like 'The Great Lie of Evolution,' and 'Seven Things Scientists Don't Want You to Know.' Go figure ... That having been said, curriculum is great, teachers great, art, music, computer, Spanish, and PE classes. Our local public school district has all sorts of problems of its own, and it's reassuring to know that the battles and constant rounds of budget cuts to those schools won't affect our kids' education.

This school has a great Music teacher at the lower levels who really puts out great musicals that are all about the kids. The upper grades music and drama seems to be about props and individual kids instead of the message or the kids. Academically, it is more about memorization than retention. The teachers

Read more really love the kids and want to honor God with their teaching, but the administration sometimes make choices that hinder the creativity of the teachers, and put band aids on problems instead of fixing them. I don't know if I would recommend this school or not. My son was there for four years, but is doing better academically since he left. hmmm. Read less

Both of my children have attended Tabernacle since Kindergarten. My oldest is now a Junior at Clayton Valley.

She looks back fondly on her time at Tabernacle, and she even works there now in day care. My son is in 7th grade. He is involved in drama and after school sports. These are two important outlets for his energy and creativity. He loves to learn just about anything, and his teachers have always provided many different opportunities to keep him involved. I highly recommend Tabernacle to anyone searching for a great school. Read less
