Word to the wise: google maps will lead you to the side opposite of the parking lot entrance, so turn right then left on the next street to get to the soccer fields. overall, fields are pretty solid condition (separate fields for football and soccer), with bleachers on the side. Doesn't have as much problem with beads piled up (like Wash Lee) or holes in the field (RFK aux field). Ample parking, trash cans...no bathrooms though from what I could find.

Wasn't too long after graduation that I realized that St. John's more than prepared me for the next level. The curriculum is challenging. You aren't allowed to float by and you are getting the tools needed to thrive beyond college. Critical thinking and reasoning were skills imparted to you. Athletics could have been stronger, but it's picking up a lot of steam. It helps that the CEO of Under Armour, Kevin Plank, is a SJC alum. This school will continue to grow and will undoubtedly be an elite institution for years to come.

It did take us a few years to get in because we didn't start applying until my kids were in upper elementary and middle school grades but it was worth every second of the wait. The staff is unbelievably kind and supportive, from support staff to teachers to the Administrators. ICS has wonderfully robust programming for a private school. They also create so many opportunities for families to serve and partner with the school. If strong Christian values and character building are at the top of your list for your family in a private school, ICS will exceed all your expectations.

The teachers and faculty stand out as World Class and truly care about the children in a manner that makes them feel special as do families. Christian values weave into everything and teach children how live their lives the right way which can't be found in public schools. The academics challenge students beyond all expectations, and our son feels energized to learn and excel. The Strings Orchestra provides a rich musical opportunity for our son whose talent as a violinist shines bright. Athletics and club activities provide many opportunities for additional growth. Our family feels honored to be part of such a special school and community. We most highly recommend ICS for Christian parents who want the very best for their children.

Their…read moretreatment towards people based on race and personality in accordance to gender is just sickening. They raise tuition and lower quality, it truly is a sinking ship. The new sitting head-principal only came in power because the old one left in the middle of the year. He is far too young and immature to be managing a school like this. He is also very ruthless, pushing strict and unnecessary rules and punishments in place. No one really has their own autonomy, not even department chairs; they all answer to him. They also poorly manage their facilities with leaking roofs, dead landscaping, cluttered rooms, burnt out lights, and cramped classrooms that harm learning like the one that's literally connected to a band room. They also shoved a trash bag down a girls dress at hoco & then also let a white girl in with a dress but dress coded a black girl wearing the same dress later on (same night btw)

Academically, each of our girls has grown tremendously. The teachers are not only dedicated and knowledgeable, but they also genuinely care about the students. We were looking for small class sizes and found it here. This has allowed for personalized attention, and we've seen huge improvements in both confidence and understanding across all subjects. What really sets Word of Life apart is the well-rounded education they provide. Our girls have had opportunities to explore music, drama, and sports, which has helped them discover new passions and develop valuable life skills. My oldest daughter was able to preform in the school drama, while my youngest attended art club. My middle child found a new passion for basketball. Most importantly, the strong Christian values and character-building woven into daily life at school have made a lasting impact on our family. We feel incredibly blessed to be part of this community and highly recommend Word of Life Christian Academy to anyone looking for a nurturing, faith-based school where children can truly flourish.

If I can save a family from the discrimination and hypocrisy of this school, then writing this…read morereview is well worth it. The current principal presents as a kind person in public meetings, when the Pastor is around, and I suppose for parents of younger children. Her entire character changes, once you make it clear that accountability should go both ways. The principal is easily offended, retaliatory, and prejudiced-at least 3 parents have shared similar experiences. She is unwilling to account for various family experiences, and communication styles. During my time at the school, my children experienced various forms of discrimination regarding discipline policies, grading, and access! The middle school program is very poorly managed. The academics, elective courses, and overall teacher effectiveness are seriously lacking. I have only experienced 1 solid core teacher (who really should be the lead), and MAYBE 2 solid elective teachers. The students are not treated with respect or trust. Some wealthy families have their student's poor behavior excused, while other families are consistently mistreated. When brought to the attention of the principal, she sits quiet in meetings and allows the middle school "lead teacher" to lead any outcomes down a destructive and non truthful path. The Principal and many other staff members have difficulty holding this middle school lead accountable. Inasmuch as parents want to be involved as partner's in their children's learning, this school only allows that if you are agreeable with everything they currently do. They have handpicked the parents that receive patience, kindness, and grace. They have also handpicked the parents who will receive resistance, retaliation, and prejudice. None of which represent the Christian character they claim to lead in. If you are a parent who asks questions, and expects accountability and respect to go both ways-this is NOT the school for you. I think the only reason they have the enrollment they do, is because they keep their tuition lower than the Christian K-12 School that is one block away from them. They are basically undercutting a nearby school. You can see both schools from the road and many families need the tuition costs to remain affordable. Unfortunately, what you are getting in return is a hypocritical school, who claims to love Jesus and lead with love, but when challenged, are the furthest away from demonstrating that when it matters most.

Awesome school! We…read morehave 2 kids who've been there for the last couple years. They actually look forward to going back each fall. That's impressive considering they are in 7th and 8th grade.
