Bullying is a big problem at this school and teachers aren't nice for the most part. There is a lot of accommodations for smart students but other then that the school isn't very great

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageIf you want to send your children to the elementary side, the people are nurturing and consistently just. However, after the 5th grade, I would not recommend this school at all. Most of the adults are rigid, unChrist-like and disrespectful to parents. To be plain, they do not partner with parents in helping your child. Your child will be sanctioned without input from you and if you question their ways, they make it hard for your child to feel safe and succeed with a clear slate. Adults share your child's information with other teachers and admin smirks if your child gets written up, at least that's what my son witnessed with himself. I used to be an advocate for this school; however, my support of PCS has changed significantly after attending the middle school. I would suggest you have your child attend a school where they actually listen to the student, care about their progress and value communication with the parent to be restorative versus punitive. The middle school could be compared to reform school, not a Christian school. Pick another middle school.Parent Review2y ago - Alliance Christian Schools
