Deeply disappointed after enrolling our child in what we thought would be a loving and supportive Christian environment. There was one teacher there we considered to be a real blessing and we’re thankful for that. Unfortunately it wasn’t enough to make up for the social exclusion experienced at the very hands of other teachers who “friend” and engage with their students on social media, openly berate students they don’t agree with and shame you if you are not a Fundamentalist. Many, many parents have pulled their children out of this school. Some have chosen to home school or hybrid over at SCA, but many have gone to public school for a more satisfying educational and social experience. If you are not a deeply fundamentalist Christian, this tiny school will not work for you! While small class sizes would ordinarily be a benefit, if your child is bullied, it becomes a burden they cannot escape, which leads to anxiety and depression. Something I learned runs rampant only after I joined the parent club. Additionally the Head of School is deeply condescending and considering the high cost of tuition plus the fees that never end, that only adds insult to injury. Another reason why so many parents have pulled their kids out of this school after only a year. Their turnover rate on new admissions is very high. Ask around before enrolling. Also do a Google search.
