Reading some reviews, I don't believe they are talking about the Christ the King my child goes to. We are not a CTK family and have no connections to the school. My child has excelled while at this school, and especially since the new Princinpal arrived. When bullying occured against my child, CR

Both of my children go to CTK. The school has grown so much over the years. The majority of the teachers are wonderful and truly care about the children. The school allows for the kids to be themselves and encourages them to excel in so many ways...Beta Club, Quiz Bowl, Academic Games, sports teams.

Last year we were so energized by our new administration, this year we are dumb founded by her inability to be an effective administrator. Many excellent teachers have left or will be leaving because they do not believe in our new principle. There is no accountability for teachers who do the wrong thing.

I attended Christ the King as a child and would not recommend this school to anyone. I had a little trouble with my academics and when I needed a little 'extra' push or a little 'extra' help with my schoolwork, not one of my teachers were willing to help me.

I am a single parent bringing my children in from way outside the 'parish.' I have made myself available in every way possible, even though I work a 9 to 5 job. I have made friends from my work as a volunteer and have never been made to feel like an outsider. On my few visits to the school during

BTW, give these people a chance, they evacuated also and are trying to restore some normalcy to an otherwise chaotic beginning of the year. BTW concerns, go see cr. Read less

CTK is a great school, if you're part of the core group of parishoners. Many teachers are parents or former students. Unconnected families are treated differently. Calls usually aren't returned and if they are, expect a lecture about your failings as a parent. My child brought home a religion test with

My child has been at Christ the King for the last 3 years and loves it. While it is a safe, loving and nurturing environment, I feel that it does not hold up educationally. It is adequate for normal students but for those that excel, I find it not challenging. I often wonder if I am sacrificing educational

I went to Christ the King from pre-k up until 8th grade. I loved it, and I am now in my sophomore year of college. I can honestly say the school was really great. The teachers were always involved and willing to help, parents are informed when their child is having difficulties or other problems. I
