Abundant Life Academy has several concerns regarding its academic quality, staffing, facilities, and overall student experience. While no school is perfect, the issues at this institution appear to affect students’ ability to learn in a consistent and supportive environment.One concern is teacher qu
Posted by a parent on 6/9/2026I appreciate that my child is learning about the Lord at school. Attending a public school was a nightmare with the teachers' and principals' lack of support, so having a new beginning at ALA is a Godsend. However, I am concerned with whether teaching is up to par with competing schools and state st
Posted by a parent on 6/11/2024My child is attended ALA. Overall the feedback is positive with friendly and dedicated teachers and staff. There are activities, after school clubs and the environment is positive. My main concern is around academics. While the students’ performance is higher than public school, keep in mind that AL
Posted by a parent on 10/31/2023If I could rate this school a 0 then I would. If you want your child bullied by the teachers then send your kids here. If you want the church you go to, to be insulted by the teachers then send your kids here. There is nothing "Christian" about this school, unless you want to pick and choose what va
Posted by a parent on 4/2/2015I Don't know why there's a negative comment on this school. I think these are parents who didn't get "their way" and are just not used to equal treatments. This school has great academic programs and great christian values to teach our children. Train up a child in the way he should go and when he g

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe love Spring Garden! The teachers are incredibly dedicated and my child comes home happy and curious. The PTA is very involved and there are plenty of family opportunities. Every spring they do a Strawberry Festival which is a pop up carnival in the big field out back. I wish there was more racial diversity across teachers and staff but they do a good job on introducing holidays that aren’t only based in Christianity. We are very happy with our experiences! You are lucky if you are zones for SGS!Parent Review1y ago - Washington Elementary School

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageBullying this everywhere. If your parents are not in the PTA or on the board as teacher. Your kids will not get special treatment. For example, one of these parents kids go and bully someone. They just over looked it. The principal is Asshle person, will never forget what he did to my son. This dude has no respect or care for your kids. He may act like it. But don’t have the full attention. He’s is just a con artist. I have many parents when my son was in school telling me things like if one of the parents criticize one of the teachers. He just blindly accept that the teachers are right. I don’t recommend this school district for anyone. There are so many bullying going on middle school and high school. I hear stories of High school kids threading elementary school kids. This school district is out of control.Parent Review4mo ago - Lincoln Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school is unprofessional. Went through the admission process since June 2025. Got everything they asked for: 2 letters of recommendation, 2 years grades, and 2 years standardized tests. Also needed an interview with the principal. I had to do numerous follow ups just to get an interview, which was later postponed. The week of 8/11 I finally went in for the interview. Was told I’d hear back on a couple of days. I was ghosted. No response. I followed up, no response. I could have sent my son to a different school. Totally unprofessional. They need to realize that this has an impact on my family. I expected better from this school. Also, the different seasonal uniform requirement are ridiculous.Parent Review11mo ago
