Based on reading one of the reviews I had to submit my own. My son and daughter attended this school their entire elementary time. Based on their own choices of developing study habits, they were completely prepared for high school. They also were, not only honor students, but also one was a valedictorian.

I was a student at this school for 8 years. These are some of the greatest teachers and people I have ever known in my life. If I could have stayed longer I would have. Unfortunately I moved. I regret having to go to a public school. I learned wonderful habits here. I studied for every single test and

The memories I made their will stick with me for the rest of my life. I'll never forget the wonderful teachers I had the honor of learning from. Go HCS! Read less

To all parents, I tell you to not put your child in this school. The teachers are terrible, not very well trained, the bottom of the barrel especially the junior high teachers. I pulled my kids from this school after it was obvious they were not being helped to succeed at all. When I asked the teachers

I put my children in this school thinking that they would be turned into leaders and become better christians and would get a better education than in public school. Instead, they became disheartened and their education was sorely lacking and their self-esteem took a major hit. The junior high teachers seemed more concerned with collecting a paycheck than teaching. The church is a great church but the school is a disgrace. Read less

She's obviously burnt-out. She gives many administrative duties to Lori. The children at the school were wild and out of control and basically got away with murder, since administration bent over backwards for the parents. It was all about the money. Read less
