    The absolute worst experience of my entire life. This school messed me up. My parents sent me here…read morebecause they wanted me to get into a good college. I only lasted a year and it was for sure the worst year of my life. I developed an anxiety disorder because of this school. Bullying was terrible and one friend of mine texted me years later saying he was so happy I made it out and he made it out too. Absolutely positively not worth the money. Every Tuesday is Chapel (at least when I was there) so the morning is shot. There's prayer before every class. My Latin teacher there told the class the end was near and we better repent. The best thing about the entire place was the Snack Shack (which I don't think is there anymore). There wasn't even a cafeteria just a gym we all ate in separated by a curtain. It is important to note that the instruction or quality of education at this school is not in anyway superior to the of public school. There is just more quantity. So much more quantity. My friends and I all had 8 hours of homework on a regular basis. Maybe less time should be spent on religious stuff and more on in class work so homework isn't piled on. The kids at this school are dangerous. I was assulted. Don't believe that just because it's private there are not drugs. There are more drugs at this school. I ended up going to public middle school and Sanderson high school. I felt the quality of education was the same, and it was free. I did well in public school and I got accepted into UNC Chapel Hill, UNC Greensboro, UNC Pembroke, and WCU. I am doing so much better now. This school was so bad my friend and I say if we made it through this we can make it through anything. Let me reiterate, worst experience of my entire life. Please please please do not send your children here if you care about their happiness or wellbeing. This school will drain it out of them and replace it with religious nonsense. This place is destructive.

    We've loved our time in the St. David's lower school so far. The teachers have been warm and caring…read moreand our kids have a blast at the big events like the back to school picnic and field day. The principal has been amazing, always encouraging the kids and so open to having us come in and talk about any concerns even if it's something small. I like that there's tons of natural light in the classrooms and the wiggle chairs are really cool. Looking forward to many more years at this wonderful school!

    The middle school is great but the high school is interesting at best, My cousin goes there and…read moretells us about how lunch is only about 15-20 minutes. are they supposed to shove their food down all quick and have no time to socialize with friends? there's no cafeteria and the lunch is short as hell! There's no good class options or elective options and there's not even enough core classes for everyone there to take and they have to double it one year. The school is also a bit small, for being open for 20+ years you'd think they'd upgrade to a larger building considering there's classes with 30-40 people. This is a realistic review for parents planning to enroll their children here, if anything take them to a public school.

    Both of my children attended this charter school located in Fuquay-Varina, North Carolina. One of…read morethe primary reasons, my wife and I made this decision was that the school administrator or the person in charge was my former guidance counselor in Junior High School, now called middle school. Knowing what a great person he is, I knew any school he was a part of would be run well. And it is. my daughter graduated and went to Wake Forest University and my son is dong well as a junior this year. It is tough to write a review for a school I am not attending, but as a parent, I am finding the smaller size schools, where you can get to know faculty and some of the families, do to the lower attendance at a charter school. The music/drama and sports really have developed and we enjoy attending their musical programs as well as various sporting events.
