What wonderful things God is doing at ELkton Christian Academy. I have a child with some special needs. ECA has whole-heartedly wrapped their collective arms around her and gone out of their way to see that she feels safe and succeeds. I have observed the older (high school) kids with the younger ones

What impresses me about ECA is the continuing desire to better the school. I've had children at ECA for many years and have seen those criticize changes when in truth, the school has more of a spiritual emphasis than it ever did. The students are more involved in service and worship because the teacher's
... Read more desire is to help the 'inside' of a child and let the 'outside' take care of itself. We no longer have a school that just 'looks the part.' It is sad that people get disgruntled about things that they don't even have all the facts about and don't see God's presence on campus. I, along with many, love what God is doing at the school. Academically ECA has made huge strides and offers more for each student than it has in the history of the school. Read less

I was a student at ECA for almost my entire life. I graduated in 2006 when the school began to 'decline'. Don't get me wrong, the teachers are absolutely wonderful, knowledgable and caring all the way from kindergarten to high school but the principle(s) of the school seem to be more concerned about
... Read more money and looking good and establishing a name for the school than leading kids in the right direction. Elkton Christian is a wonderful school. You won't find a better education or more caring teachers anywhere on earth but it seems to me that the principle doesnt enforce what God wants but rather what she thinks is best. Also the school does not stress the importance of God and Christian values enough. However teachers are always willing to help students one on one. Read less

Years ago this was a great school with Christian values and morals. I have been involved with this school since I was five years old I have watched the horrific changes come. Now with new administration you have to be in the click or give money in every direction beyond tuition to make sure your student

Your child will not be judged because of what someone may say or think about him and sure to goodness will not have disrespect from authority figures. In short think of other means for private school .I think Private School is great just not this one. Read less
