In reference to no discipline with children who hit, and violence being tolerated. I would have to really question that statement. I pulled my child out of public school Nov of 2008 & placed him at CHS. They are on top of everything. If my child was out of line I receive a call. If my child is doing

I would highly recommend this school. Read less

I have 3 kids that have gone through CHS, two that have now graduated. i can say without hesitation that CHS has given my children a great foundation for the rest of their lives.

I am a parent with 3 children at CHS. My oldest student has attended since preschool and is now a 9th grader. We love the school as it provides a safe and nurturing environment for our children. The teachers and administration truly care about the students and are committed to providing a top notch

My husband is in the military and we have lived many different places. Coming to Utah was an experience in itself. I immediately was concerned about the public school system here since there is an unbelieveable influence by the LDS church. I did look into the public schools but ultimately decided
... Read more that their class sizes were too large, the curriculum was less than average and their lack of discipline procedures are not very effective or fair to the children. After researching and considering all the options I decided that CHS was the best fit for my child. The dedicated teachers, caring staff and leadership are excellent. I especially like all of the 'specials' that are offered. They are true to their mission statement: to provide an excellent academic education with a foundation on biblical principals. My child is thriving and CHS has surpassed all of my expectations. Read less

In reference to the post of December 12, 2007. CHS teachers and staff are very honest-more common than rare. The downside to these ratings is they subjective and disgruntled former parents may post whatever they like. The school is not perfect because people are not perfect. Saying good honest people
... Read more are 'rare' is just plain untrue. CHS teachers are some of the most genuine, caring people I've ever seen. I have been contacted on a few occasions and asked by a teachers if everything was alright with my student because of changes in work habits. I have seen teachers and staff go out of their way to comfort distressed students or offer after-class help with coursework. Morals and attitudes are born at home. Parents have to take an active role in the child's education. Read less

As a parent of four children who have attended Christian Heritage I question the validity of the post stating the 'blatant disregard for any rules...and violence[being] tolerated without any punishment.' Having gone to elementary school in Alabama I can tell you that I would not rather have my children
... Read more there-especially in their public schools. My children are well above the Utah State level and the National Average in every academic category through their CHS education. And yes, they have received discipline for misbehaving - even been in the principal's office and had the rights and wrongs of hitting and the other 'etc's' clearly explained. Perhaps the author had a negative experience and is only focusing on the negative. In eight years of education for my kids at CHS I have never heard of such a thing going un-noticed or undisciplined.

I would rather send my child to a public school in Alabama. The teachers do not discipline the children, and violence (hitting, kicking, etc.) is tolerated without any punishment.

My children used to attend Christian Heritage. There is good reason they are no longer attending. CHS has good things about it but for the most part is a place of gossip and un-christlike bahavior.. not from the students from the adults and staff! although the high school students are very unfriendly.
