I would agree with much of what is said here. The school is a true Christian school. The students are respectful, and, in my view, very welcoming of new students. The kids don't have to deal with a lot of the problems kids in other schools deal with. The big problems are kids talking too much and

The academic success of the students is above average, however the school is greatly limited in its financial resources, and this seems to really put a strain on any improvements in the curriculum and technology. All in all, for those parents concerned with their children getting a truly Christian education, being surrounded by Christian kids, and teachers who are committed and caring, this is an excellent school.

I was also saddened by the fact that even though I brought a very negative situation in the classroom to the attention of the Assistant Prinicipal there has been no response from anyone at the school in THREE weeks.

My child attended Agape, and I must say, the education was not that good. It was a good Sunday School atmosphere, but the learning is simply substandard. Science is almost non-existent, as the School is completely limited by tuition concerns. There seems to be a type of favoritism going around at

Another big problem going on is that teachers want to have absolute and complete control over what the students learn. Parental involvement in any type of curriculum decisions are far less than in public and charter schools. Any attempt to break through this wall the school has put up is met with complete scorn and near derision, as well as the School making concerned students and their respective parents feel as they may not be 'religious enough'.
