Lighthouse Christian Academy

Maybe we got unlucky, but communication with my child’s 3rd and 4th grade teachers were non-existent for both of my children who were in different buildings. No weekly newsletters, no updated grades on PowerSchool or Canvas. I never received graded work, very disappointed with the lack of regular communication. Maybe it’s because the class sizes are so big and lack of special education support that teachers are overwhelmed. Intermediate does a much better job at communication.

Not that great of a school breaks my heart to have to send my kids their my sons get told they can’t go to the bathroom when they really need which has resulted in multiple accidents in their pants which they never did before I put them in Robertson and have had to sit in wet pants until end of school ,my children have came home multiple times saying they did not eat lunch because they was at the end of the line and everything was gone when they got up to the front so they had to sit and watch everyone one else eat they do nothing about kids picking or bullying my kids even after my kids tell the teacher but will quickly get on to mine for being “mean” back. my kids went from A’s& B’s at epic charter to not making any sort of progress can barley get a response from teachers among a lot of other problems my kids use to love school now they hate it and it’s a fight because they do not want to go to that school.

We really love this school. As an international family, we felt very welcomed here. The teachers are kind and supportive, and our daughter is happy and confident. She was in another school before with a higher rating, but we like McClure much more — they respect her personality and help her grow without pressure.

The upper elementary school front office lady is the primary reason I’m looking at taking my tax dollars elsewhere. She is as insufferable as the policy she thinks is so important. I walked my kindergarten girl to class just fine without wasting time on a tag because clearly if you have a little girl with you and are dressed in work clothes you aren’t looking to meander around the halls.

Metro is a great school for my kids. I have a high school student and an elementary student. Both have had a great experience. I love that the school is small enough that you can participate on varsity athletics and participate in the school musical. Student Activities are really the heart beat of the school and they are done really well at Metro. My elem student benefits from a small class size and a team of teachers who know her strengths and her weaknesses and build on that. I couldn’t be more pleased with Metro!

Remarkable! All three of my children have scored nearly two grade levels above their public school counterparts. When my daughter graduated 8th grade she was at a HS sophomore level in reading and math.
