The school's staff and teachers really care about their students' well being, whether it be academic or spiritual. Any issues we have had at the school we have brought to the attention of either the teachers or the principal and they are discussed or resolved headon. I, as a parent, feel free to discuss

We have had 2 students attend Ontario Christian High School and go on to attend 4 year colleges. They were both prepared and thankful for their teachers at O.C. While no school is perfect we are very happy with the quality of all aspects, spiritual, academic, social of the school. I recommend the

I'm a freshman at ontario christian. Ive been here since 7th grade, and honestly its a good school, but its just not for me.

Onterio Christian has proven to do nothing other than hold me back.

It took almost a year to relearn the math that I was poorly taught. I paid good money to get

Seems like there's some confusion out there! I have three children who've graduated from OC. My oldest went on to Washington University in St. Louis (top 6 of most difficult schools to get into) and graduated summa cum laude (#1 in the class) in structural engineering. OC prepared him for that. These

The quality of Ontario Christian's education is below average; and that is being generous. The only redeeming factor with Ontario Christian is they pride themselves on teaching 'Christian values' to their students. I kept hearing this 'value' over and over from different teachers and now I know why.

Sadly, these students will never be prepared for the rigors of college, unless they plan on attending Jesus Tech. Not surprisingly, over 90% of the teachers at Ontario Christian received their credentials from these obscure 'Christian' schools. If your child is pursuing a lucrative career teaching at a mediocre school, then by all means, Ontario Christian is the place to go. Read less

OC is strong in Christian values. Their academics are slightly above marginal and extracurricular activities are acceptable. It's easy to participate on a team. My daughter currently attends OC High School. She is a Jr. I don't feel the academics are adequate for students wanting to attend top notch
... Read more colleges. You have to supplement their education with Community College courses. If you want Honors or AP classes you should make sure you know what year they are offered because they are not offered at every grade level (i.e. Honors English starts in the 11th grade). The teachers don't strike me as being able to deliver High Quality course like you would find at some public schools. Their Arts/Drama program is limited. Band is marginal, drama is small and only a few art classes. Despite this, the environment is great, diversity is increasing and it is a real Christian school. Read less
