Riverside Elementary School

Im very happy with this school, their teachers and staff. My son is been there since 1st grade and now his in 6th grade, thanks to to the school and teachers he has grown up to be a mature respectful and responsible person.

Below zero, extremely dissapintef, this will force me into a decision anf I will move my daughter out of this school.

We used to love this school but the culture has changed for the worse with new administration. Parents no longer feel welcome at this school. Teachers are not held accountable for their treatment of students. The amazing teachers also do not seem as happy. This used to be a wonderful small school that felt like a close knit community. Social emotional learning used to be a priority. Now all they do is teach for standardized testing. Very sad.

The teachers are concerned about the development and education of the children. The teachers go above and beyond assisting our children on their free time to overcome any academic challenges they are facing. Christian environment.

I would not recommend this school. I am shocked and disappointed.

Iron sharpens iron When we moved to El Paso in 2014, we were looking for private Christian education for our 3 children. We looked into two of the most well-known options, St. Marks and St. Matthews. While we might easily have settled for one of the two, something called us to dig deeper for our kids. I am not quite sure how we stumbled upon Community of Faith Christian School, but after the first visit I was glad we hadn't settled for the others. The small class sizes allow the dedicated cadre of teachers to take these kids to the upper echelons of academic excellence. In spite of the rigour, the kids really support each other so that no one is made to feel like they don't belong. Perhaps the only downside is that, given the small class sizes, everyone has to pull together to raise funds. We were surprised to learn the school has been around for over 30 years, because it seems like the best-kept secret in west El Paso education. In any event, this hidden gem of a school deserves wider publicity. If you are seeking a truly exceptional educational experience for your child, there is one elite school that stands apart from the rest: CFCS.

The school was one of the best experiences of my life. I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to attend SMCS for my middle school years and it was a pleasurable experience. The administration and staff was very friendly and help.
