I feel that he gets a great education here, but more than that, he learns to care for people and most importantly he is encouraged to have a personal relationship with God. There isn't anyone saying he can't talk about God. Without God, we have nothing. I love that my children are afforded the opportunity to be in this environment. Read less

The school accepts all students that apply no matter what the prior circumstances of the student were i.e. discipline problem at public school, violent, mean spirited, etc. The educational level from K to 3rd grade is great; however, it seems to go back a grade when the children reach 4th grade -stays
... Read more at that level in 5th grade - then many students are not prepared for the 6th grate. The school seems to have the teachers teaching the wrong grades. The school lunches are a joke in cost, quantity and quality - you would be better of sending a lunch with your child. Expect the tuition to increase from $1,000.00 to $2,000.00 each year. Overall - the school was a disappointment. Taking my kids out and putting them in public school was a good choice. Read less
