Cedar Park Christian School

Wonderful school and staff. Fantastic engaging principal and programs.

My child started at this school in kindergarten and is now in Grade 1. We enrolled him in the PACE program, and our experience has been wonderful. The teacher is amazing-supportive, engaging, and truly dedicated. He has learned a lot, is having fun, and genuinely looks forward to going to school every day.

We enrolled our son at this school hoping for a thorough whole-child education rooted in the gospel. Instead we found a largely white school where multiculturalism is not tolerated. My husband is from Eastern Asia and I am white -- a fact my child was teased about and a fact that brought judgement from admin and teachers. We have friends who are both legal immigrants from the Philippines and sent their daughter here until they attended school events and saw the lack of diversity and the intolerance towards parents of color. We withdrew our son because we felt the "love thy neighbor" aspect of the gospel is not taught here. Revelation 7:9-10 says "After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands, and crying out with a loud voice, “Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne". If we are all worshipping Christ why are multicultural children and families being discriminated against? We are all God's children, we are all Christians trying to raise our children right. The school website has been updated to say: "Modern educational trends have left these much-needed virtues behind so that ideological tolerance, multiculturalism, and freedom of choice in our culture trump truth, beauty and goodness". While truth, goodness, and beauty are deep values of my husband and I, we believe it is ok to be a multicultural family or a mixed race person. We also believe that idealogical tolerance is important. You need not agree with every person you meet but children must be taught to respect others, even if that person has not found their way to God yet. I was disappointed to learn the true colors of this school and to feel the hate from a "Christian" community who is openly against tolerating differences and tolerating folks from other cultures and skin tones. Very sad that there are kids going here, and adults teaching children about such poor values. If you are white and want your children around only white children, and are ok with your Asian, brown, black, etc., child learning their cultures are below European culture- send them here. If you want your child to be taught hatred towards those who are different, send them here. Very disappointed this school exists.

We've been at Woodinville Montessori school for many years. We originally joined for pre-school but decided to stay after seeing how intelligent, engaged, and courteous the High School students were at school wide events. We've always been happy with the academic progress of our children at the school. There are National Merit scholars every year and the kids are going to top tier universities after graduation.

I recommend this school. We come here every day except for the weekends. There are students and teachers, which is great. I love Maria Montessori. =)
