First of to address all these things people are saying, the dress code is not stopping kids from expressing themselves it is helping them to become respectable members of society. There isn't much bullying from what I've seen and they try their best sports is at its best ever, with the archery team almost always makes national and basketball and baseball are doing really good we are a good team in track and cross country it is a mostly white school, with limited choices but worth it cause trust me public school is a LOT worse and the biblical teaching is good the school has specific curriculum they use not just what a teacher thinks for bible class. They have pastors and well educated people teaching bible class with apologetics and new testament studies alternating years the main denominations are a mix of baptist and (my own denomination) penacostals and a very small number of catholics and Presbyterian adding a collage of different denominations but, it is important to note that the school is non-denominational with no specific denomination affiliations. One thing I did not like was that in elementary school they had a system to where you had 10 dollars of fake money and if you forgot something or were not well prepared you'd lose money lose all 10 and you get a parent sign-sheet called a conduct mark. Serious disciplinary actions get you 5 resulting in a pink slip. Now they also had little class jobs to give you money and you could by snacks with your money. If you lose more than ten you'd get negative money, thus losing money. It was SUPPOSED to prepare you for middle school but we have 9 hall passes for the quarter (9 weeks) and later (die to bad behavior) the semester (18 weeks). But most teachers were chill with you going to get stuff as long as you were not a reaper offender. Don't get me wrong--- it's a great school the food is awesome the parent involvement is shocking the sports is now a LOT better and the bullying is very low the options are small but worth it I recently took a CAD class which is actually college credit and I'm in 8th grade they have standard and unique options that are filling the school is like a tight knit community and the teachers are good as long as you don't act a fool in class or hang with those that do, they have many club options and academically our school is very good we have programs offering up to 2 free years at a great com. College. Overall great school.
