I have enjoyed having my children at Faith Baptist. It would be difficult to find another school with teachers as loving and giving to their students as the Faith faculty and staff. The class sizes are small, and the school is having financial troubles, but the love of God shines through. If you are
Posted by a parent on 2/14/2013I would not recommend this school to anyone. The administrative policies are not in step with the realities of children's needs. The teachers' hands are tied by such strict guidelines and extreme over emphasis on quiz, test and grade performance as early as second grade, that very little "teaching"
Posted by a parent on 1/28/2012Though there are elements that are great about this school (some of the teaching staff are great), the policies and discipline are a bit harsh, there is absolutely no oversight allowed by parents (no surprise visits, no peeking in classroom doors or windows), no free discussion of parties, certain w
Posted by a parent on 8/31/2011My son joined FBCS last year, I like the fact that he is being challenged in various subjects and i also love the teacher: pupil ratio. My only concern is the lack of physical activities and sports. FBCS does not have a science lab and i think a good basis in paractical science is very essential but
Posted by a parent on 4/27/2010FBCS has been a warm, friendly place for my children to learn and grow. There is a strong academic curriculum, but there is also an important emphasis on character building. The school also provides a safe environment for my kids, as the focus on firm but caring discipline sets a good standard for b

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe school is extremely racist. When my daughter attended most of the staff was white and was so unqualified to teach children it was ridiculous. It seems as though they were employed strictly from the color of their skin. Many of them had drug issues, anger issues, mental issues, or just extreme flaws like being dishonest and disrespectful and all around extremely unprofessional and shouldn't be anywhere near children. They mistreat children with special needs and disorders and the principal did nothing about it. I went through absolute hell with my child there and I was elated when she finally left that place. Wouldn't recommend at all.Parent Review8mo ago - Montpelier Elementary School

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe principal who's name is Jewel Preston lost her mind talking to me like I'm a kid and I'm older than her. I came to get my kid at 1:30 which is 15 minutes before they get out and she had the nerve to tell me I can't get him until school is over. In the past I picked him up 3 times at that same time. I was talking to another staff member about am I able to get my son if it's an emergency by then it was only 2 minutes of school left then Preston the principal jumped in my conversation and raised her voice telling me I don't have any emergency and she's right I because I never said I did I was just asking a question. She started raising her voice and being rude when I kindly told her I was not talking to her. She told me to get my son when school is out and slammed the front door in my face. Now if she talks to a parent like that, imagine how she treats the kids. You can't let stuff like that go which I'm not. Don't even bother talking to the superintendent because most likely they're buddies. You have to go over him or her to get results.;3Parent Review3y ago - Vansville Elementary School

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageGreat staff which exhibits great effort everyday! You can always see teachers going above and beyond here to help your child at this school. I have NO idea why there are not better ratings for this school. Though I do realize we live in a world of inhumane individuals who prejudge based on "Demographics", don't let ratings and reviews fool you. This is a great place for kids, good area and bustling out the seams with excellent care & support for kids and parents. I took my son out of a higher-rated school because they had difficulties and haven't been happier!Parent Review10mo ago
