    If this were 3 years ago I would be praising the school. It has basically turned into a daycare…read morecenter. If that's what you're needs are then I would say absolutely use the state credit and then enroll your child into public school or Model if you are looking for a real private school. My child was enrolled from PreK to 3rd grade after the huge downward spiral in the 3rd grade we pulled him due a number of issues including bringing solid proof to the principal that his teacher was harassing our child. We were told in so many words due to staffing issues that she will always pick the teacher over the student. We copied the superintendent with every single email as well and this was ignored. The teacher in question still works there. St. Marks used to be a safe place for my child and the third grade year was met with extreme anxiety due to this teacher. We were told to trust and there was no way this teacher was causing it. I feel ashamed I didn't pull my child sooner. You will not have the protection of a 504. My child is immunocompromised and I remember saying to the principal I am sorry my child doesn't have a cookie cutter illness like cancer. This year we have been going back and forth to Nortons in Louisville and will start having to travel to Cincinnati. The 504 I have in place with the public school protects my child. The teacher from last year refused to do a single thing the OT therapist requested, yet the public school and 5 teachers have not one issue. Save your money. Use it as a daycare and find a better place.

    Saint Mark is the only fully accredited faith-based school in Madison County. If you are looking…read morefor a school with small class sizes, teachers who teach with passion, and where every single student is at or above grade level, then search no more. We have had our oldest in their Pre-K program since she was 2 and her development has been amazing to watch. Along with an exceptional K - 5 program they have the only Pre-K program in which children can go full time/part time, full day/half day. The best part is they can continue up through 5th grade so that they really get a sense of family in addition to a quality education. Character is what helps to set this school apart from others. The Pledge of Allegiance is said daily, and they actively encourage student prayers. At the end of each school day they set aside time where students can give "shout outs" to other students for their acheivements, as well as apologize for when their behavior may not have been up to par. This accountability comes from the students, which makes it even more special. The principal works day in and day out to ensure her students and staff have the tools they need to ensure a quality education. She is actively involved in the parent/teacher associations as well. I have never met teachers more devoted to the success of their students than those at Saint Mark. With small school sizes, they are able to pay more attention to each student as an individual and cater to their learning style more easily.

    We went on a college visit for my son and walked away very impressed. The visit schedule ran on…read moretime, the presentation was informative and the meal was very good. EKU was my favorite college we've visited so far, with enrollment being between 10-11,000 it's a good blend of a large college with a smaller college feel. Time will tell which college he picks and we still have some visits left but right now I would be comfortable if he decided to become a Colonel.

    Eastern Kentucky University Campus…read more Living in Eastern Kentucky for 10 years I had the opportunity to spend a lot of time at several college campuses. One was Eastern Kentucky University. When I visit family and friends in Richmond Kentucky I always spend time on campus. I'm familiar with the buildings and I have my favorite places to photograph. The last time I visited I was with my daughter. We were there on a beautiful day. Flowers and trees were in bloom. The campus was clean and the buildings have not been neglected. I love to visit the Statue of Daniel Boone. We rubbed his toe for good luck. Anyone that knows the school knows that's a traditional thing to do. If you like to travel visiting historic old school campuses you will enjoy Eastern Kentucky University. Look up the history before you go. If it wasn't for this University the City of Richmond would be very impoverished. In Kentucky college towns are the best place to live. That's my opinion. I hope you enjoy my photos.
