Lincoln Alternative High School

The school is like one large family. They watch out for each other, take care of each other, come together for special needs, projects, or events. The school is small which allows for more individual attention per student. The teachers and staff get to know each student and their family individually and work together to ensure the child's needs are met and/or exceeded/

I graduated for Spring Vale Academy in 2015. While the school is quite obviously a Christian private school and there are the normal things that come along with it like conservative Christian values there are some unexpected things that I witnessed while in attendance. Faculty and student relationships aren’t uncommon. I personally went to school with two students that ended up marrying faculty members shortly after graduation. The school is small and many of the students have parents who are faculty. I witnessed some pretty blatant preferential treatment. The school has a difficult time holding on to directors, often times settling for unqualified church members that have no education or back ground in education. Many of the teachers follow suite. It has been my experience that the school prioritizes religious indoctrination over high quality academic instruction and education. While not explicitly stated more resources and a wider range of extracurricular options are allocated to the male students. Dress codes are strict and are disproportionately enforced on the female students.

Always informed about the safety of my child along with his progress.
