Tyee Middle School

Horrible school. The teachers are overly strict, assign crzy homework, rampant bullying.

My son goes here for the last three years and he loves it

Terrible education and ids were bored because they weren’t challenged — multiple physical and verbal assaults. Claim they have their hands tied but I have never hear so much swearing in the classroom. Kid got assaulted and the problem child was back in the classroom the very next day…

I absolutely adore Emerald Heights Academy. It’s more than just a school—it’s a Catholic community where children are known, nurtured, and encouraged to grow in both character and academics.One of the things I love most is that it allows children to be children. There’s no rush to push them into adulthood too quickly. Instead, the environment balances academic rigor with joy, faith, and play, giving kids the space to learn while still embracing the wonder of childhood.The school is proudly Catholic in its traditions and values, rooted in faith, family, and country. You’ll see one flag flying—the American flag—and you won’t find the distraction of trendy agendas. The focus is clear: forming children in faith, knowledge, and virtue.The teachers truly see each child and inspire them to reach their potential with kindness and encouragement. Small class sizes mean my kids get the individual attention they need, while still being part of a vibrant and supportive community.Emerald Heights Academy has been a blessing for our family, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to parents who want a faith-filled school that helps children become strong, capable, and compassionate young people without losing the joy of childhood.

Eastside Christian School has been such a blessing for our family! My four-year-old son had an amazing first year of preschool here. His teachers were so kind, nurturing, and truly invested in each child’s growth. As a mom of a child with allergies, I was especially impressed with how intentional and safe the staff were—always communicating and making sure he was well cared for. I couldn’t be more thankful. The entire staff is so welcoming and friendly, and it really feels like a community. I am so grateful for this warm, faith-filled environment!
