USE CAUTION!! The administration is unstable and changes frequently putting the children in a precarious situation. The board overseeing the school practices "marshmallow leadership" and is run exclusively by parents who never focus on long term strategic matters. Members prefer to scapegoat, let gossip prevail and meet in secret to vote out other members who they don't like. It looks really nice at first glance but if you stay there long enough these ugly issues will surface.....be careful!!

My daughter has been at AR Baptist since K-4 and is graduating this year. I wouldn't want her to be anywhere else. I have friends that have children at some of the other private schools in town and all of them have some of the problems mentioned here. We have had a few teachers we haven't clicked with and a few issues I haven't agreed with, but overall, it is an awesome school. Teachers and parents are very involved. The class sizes are small. It is a challenging curriculum, especially high school. There are sports for every interest and band, but they put very little money and support towards drama. I feel the teachers and administration really care about these kids. If your child just wants to coast through high school and put out any effort, you might not want to invest the money to have tjem here. Our ACT, etc scores are great and every year we beat out a whole host of private schools in the area in a competition where the kids take.an actual final exam in college courses.

Every parent wants the best for their children. I am confident our kids are receiving the very best for our family. We are not wealthy, and our children are not extremely athletic. We are a mixed race family, and we have never felt excluded. The teachers love on our kids so well. We are very thankful for the strong, supportive community at PA!

Our daughter attended CVMS for 5 years, beginning when she was 17 months old. She continued at CVMS through her kindergarten year. This school is simply amazing. She entered only speaking a few words, and left prepared to skip a grade in school. The staff at CVMS saw her through many stages - they were able to get her talking, get her potty trained, deal with discipline issues with compassion and kindness, and they made her LOVE learning.As a small school, CVMS is able to give children the love and attention they need to flourish and thrive. The community is close-knit, and the kids make enduring friends and connections. I highly recommend this school.
