Bagby Elementary School

SJCS is a school that supports its students, staff, and families. As a Christian school for Christian families, SJCS administration leads with grace and love. The teachers and staff care deeply about the students and their well-being. Additionally, school leadership holds high expectations for strong teaching as well as for student behavior and academics. Administration works hard to lead the students to walk in the way of the Lord and holds them accountable for their actions. With rigorous academic, non-cut sports, and a variety of extra-curricular activities, SJCS sets students up for success in high school and beyond. I would wholeheartedly recommend this school for students preschool through middle school.

This is a very good school for Chinese and Japanese speaking families. Our son goes here and still is attending. Teachers and kids are great here. Since it's bilingual, the kids dont pick up English as in other schools maybe until 3rd grade. Math is way ahead of the other schools. It may need some work on other subjects, but its a small school with limited resources. The principal (the owner) is too busy on all the matters related to the school. If he is not responding, communicating via the teachers usually works. He and his wife do care about the students. We talked to the principal many times in person before sending our kid there. Bullying is NOT tolerated at this school. During our time here, one student was kicked out due to bullying and abusive language to the teachers. And other bullying activities were disciplined and corrected right away. This may be good or bad depending on how your kids will adapt to the real world. Overall, it's a pretty good school. If parents like the Japanese style teaching and environment, this is definitely the right school for you.

Our 10 year old started attending Learning Springs Academy in August 2024, after going through 5 other schools. He has adhd, sensory processing disorder, anxiety and is on the spectrum. He also has dysgraphia and possibly dyslexia. Before Learning Springs, he had horrible anxiety regarding school and we dealt with school refusal for years. He would also get overwhelmed and overstimulated in previous classroom environments and spend most of his time hiding and avoiding the noise and chaos. Each year, he was falling further and further behind. Learning Springs has been an answered prayer! Our son is like a different child. Ms. Lucia has truly changed his life for the better. She really takes the time to get to know each student and what their special needs are. She knows how to motivate and encourage our son. He has grown tremendously. We continue to be amazed at the things he has been able to accomplish since starting here. His self esteem and confidence in his abilities has grown so much! I can see how proud of himself he is and that makes my heart so happy. All of the staff are incredibly kind, compassionate and knowledgeable and my son loves them all! To say that Learning Springs has changed our lives would truly be an understatement.
