I currently attend Dade Christian school as a sophomore. Honestly, it is not such a bad school. There are problems here and there, but that is inherent of any school because no school is perfect; it is just a matter of the heart and ones attitude. I know what it is like to come from a bad school. There

As far as education goes, it is not necessarily first-rate but it is solid and much better than surrounding schools (I am speaking from experience). The athletic program is strong; we have very good football, cross-country, track and field, and soccer programs. We also have extremely strong extracurricular activities (36 people in FBLA are competing in states this year). In summary, I'm thankful that I attend DCS, but I do wish that more people who attend felt the same way. Read less

DCS was a good school way back when but it has changed alot and getting worse through the years,.

As far as academics go, they might of been good in the past but my child no longer goes there and when I put him in another school he was way behind, I had to get a tutor to get him caught up. The money is not being used for the school because it looks the same since the school openend and computers are ancient and every year the tuition gets higher. 300 students left last year and more are leaving this year, I wonder why.

I have been very impressed with Dade Christian School for the many years my children have attended here since 3K and up. The teachers and administrators are outstanding, very professional, caring people. You see the love of Christ in all of them. Many students that come from other schools have said
... Read more this is the nicest school they have been to. Some parents that found it expensive went to other schools to come back the same semester because the other schools are just not the same.

There athletic dept is also excellent. It is truly a very well rounded program. I highly recommend this school. It is a blessing and a privelege to have my kids here. Read less

Unfortunately, the sacrafice has become a burden and I can no longer afford to send my girl's to Dade Christian School but I am confident they will adjust well in their new schools with the strong solid foundation they were blessed to have received at DCS. The only constant thing in life is change and if you don't embrace it, you'll never know what else God has in store for you! We look forward to the new school year. Peace & Grace Read less
