Midland Christian School

Best school ever,so much fun and learn a lot of Stuff.

Teachers here are the biggest bullies but want to enforce a bullying policy. Principal is a joke. No point in searching for a resoultion, principal always defenses teachers behavior. Most teachers aren't credentialed and it shows.

This school excludes parents, teachers are lacking, my child HATES this school.

The only school where my child actually learned something!!!

Hello, I would like to share my side of things I was a student who went to Trinity School for 11 years. Different stories about the administration staff being sketchy were always around me, and I thought they were way exaggerated, but after shady things started to happen to me I realized that maybe they were not. Lets start out with before you put your kid into this school do a deep dive and really look into the dozens of stories about Trinity, nobody should have to go through what I went through. I have Dysgraphia and ADHD Trinity had the papers disclosing that I had Both of those but didnt give me any of my accommodations from 5th grade to 8th. Now You have to get re-tested every 3 years which I did not do because there's no point they weren't giving me my accommodations anyways such as extra testing time. Along with that, Trinity's counseling is very sketchy. Page 4 of the contract you have to sign states They are not liable for any counseling your child is given. Some friends went to the counselor concerned about me to which the counselor did not handle it correctly and sent me home till I could get a doctors note saying I was ok. I came back to school with the note the next day (Showing she had no right to send me home) She then asked if it was real (It was I didn't sit there for no reason in a doctor's office to get a fake note.) On it, it disclosed I had a counselor, and the school didn't need to interfere with me. But that's exactly what they did. Basically, to the point where they said to sign a contract allowing the school to be linked with my counselor meaning she could share info with the school and they could with her. Or leave the school. From how the school had been handling what was going on we knew they couldn't be trusted with the contract. The school also has a big issue with money if you donate money to the school like big amounts, then your child can basically do whatever they want. My Neighbores child dropped out of Trinity because of an incident with a kid doing drugs and getting caught, but the school did nothing about it since the kids parents where dontaing money to the school. It went against her morals to be giving a school so much money when they will go against their own rules just for a bit of cash.

We enrolled our child at Midland Montessori School, with high expectations, but our experience was deeply concerning. While the teachers and staff genuinely seem focused on helping kids, the reality of the classroom environment was far from ideal.One of the most concerning issues is the high student-to-teacher ratio. In several instances, classes have over 30 students per teacher, which is alarmingly high for the quality of attention and return on investment you expect from a private school. Of course, this is only revealed after you sign on the contract dotted line. The school does an excellent job of locking parents into set terms, but there is a dearth of ambiguity concerning class sizes and teacher qualifications. This lack of transparency is unacceptable, especially when parents are making significant financial and educational investments.Again, to make matters worse, many of the teachers are underqualified, and the support staff also lacks the necessary credentials. This combination makes it dubious to even consider this a private school, given the lack of individual attention and quality instruction. In some ways it's easy to blow this off as part of what you get for living in Midland, TX, but it shouldn't be the gotcha surprise you receive after enrolling your child.Moreover, the school's treatment of minority families is particularly poor. Initially, the staff is enthusiastic and welcoming, seemingly excited to have your child enroll. However, once you're in the door and the tuition is paid, the attitude shifts dramatically. You begin to see subtle looks, acts of microaggression, and straight discriminatory and marginalization acts. For example, the teacher and support staff asking, "Where are you from? And what language do you speak at home?" Even after stating to the teacher and support staff that you're from a different city in Texas, and that you only speak English to your kids. It's clear to understand that with this culture, the school becomes unsupportive, and there is a clear sense from many, including and most importantly Mrs. Luke, that non-white minority families are looked down upon. Concerns about your child's education are dismissed, one-on-one support is not provided, and even basic social etiquette seems to be disregarded.Don't get suckered in like we were, do your research before making an important mistake that your child will end up paying.
