    New Principal, not impressed. Too many out of policy decisions to say anything positive. The staff and teachers are great though.

    Love this school! My daughter attended TK and kinder here, and my son has been here kinder through…read morethird. I'm an elementary teacher in another district, so I can tell you I'm critical about the quality of their education. We have been very happy with all of their teachers, some of the best I've ever known in my 20+ years as an educator. They were spot on in quickly identifying and remediating learning challenges with my child. My children love their school, they feel safe, happy and enthusiastic about learning. They have a strong PTA that has financed some excellent improvements such as technology, outdoor shaded picnic lunch patio, new play structures, and many enrichments. It is a small school, will good teacher to student ratios and ample support staff. The administration has made it their mission to care for the students from a "whole child" perspective, focusing on character, emotional and social development, physical and mental health, as well as top notch education. Stellar campus!

    This school was fine until about first grade for my kid, I think that's when the new principal…read moreMelanie Morrow took over. She was great at the beginning having fundraisers and school events. Then after a year or two they haven't made any changes, now its been around 3 ish years and no new improvements have been made, unless you count big ass solar panels in the playground area. I dont want to theorize this... but what if they aren't actually spending the money on improvements for the school. It seems phishy because of the obvious, when principal Harris left she made a bang by making the oh-so-loved outdoor learning center but now its not maintained. Morrow has been making what I call Shitty changes too, she passed a rule a while back when a kid had a temper tantrum they would lock down the entire school and announce on the intercoms "Code R" and then after parents complained they switched it to "Blue Sky's" which got taken down after another day. This school isn't bad its just the shitty principal in charge

Not only is she given tasks and crafts that cater to her personal level, the entire school knows her name. All of the kids are supportive of each other and big buddies (upper class) are assigned to each student in her class. Myah absolutely loves her big buddy and each week they have an opportunity to connect. The Abeka learning curriculum has blessed her over the year and she has begun to read! ( https://www.abeka.com/ ) Myah's K-4/K class just finished their oral presentations on animals they were assigned to and and they all did great! It was so awesome to see kindergarteners gaining the confidence to speak in front of their class. As parents we are given so many opportunities to be involved! We are getting to know the families rooted here and we love that. Dr. And Mrs. Geue are amazing individuals, accessible to our every whim of need, and love each student. The level of how our family has been encompassed is beyond 5 stars and we are so blessed to be here.

    Been at this school for 3 years almost 4 years and we love it! They are a school with strong…read moreChristian moral values which was very important for our family.

    Where do I start?? This school is the best school I have ever had interaction with. My daughter was…read morea Veteran there from K to 8th grade completed in 2022. I went to church there when it was still College Heights Christian School and my parents weren't able to afford it . I said, "My child will go there someday when I have my kids." It kept the kids as kids unlike public school is unable to do without Christ as the foundation. Today my daughter almost about to graduate HS was reunited with her City alumni at their JR High/High School Summer camp. Still good kids and the secret is Jesus and parents who invest in their children is a winning combination that goes unmatched. If you can pull it off please do it. My son attended Pre-K and was able to have his start of school with his sister that would not of been possible without this school since it's PreK to 8th now. My son loved it so much and talks about going back all the time he's now hitting 3rd grade. Unfortunately, financially it's not possible for him. it's heartbreaking to not give him the same blessings as his sister. Amazing school. 10/10

    Here is why I would not enroll my children here: 1) the…read moreschool subscribes to Christian Nationalism, DT, & CK teachings despite having students and teachers of varying racial backgrounds. Students who are not loud DT supporters are automatically labeled as democrats and told that they are "not Christian" and bullied. Bullies (& their families)who commit actual ASSAULT are protected by the leaders- even with police involvement. Maga-ville, USA. 2) Unqualified teaching staff. Many teachers are not credentialed nor have they even graduated from college. They are trained at the affiliated church's "bible college" and allowed to then teach your children! New unqualified teachers (one male specifically) is being harbored at this school despite complaints from parents that he is emotionally abusive to several male students and he also allows the female students to cheat on tests. Big red flag as a mother with a daughter. Ok? This teacher has CK quotes & pictures on his walls. Bible college students live right across the street in the green apartments-right next door to the school. That made me feel Uncomfortable. The church+the bible college+apartments+school= concerning levels of cult-like vibes. 3) Campus- no library, no gym, no green spaces, no cafeteria, no locker rooms. Sketchy stairway. Across from County Jail. Large electrical wires nearby. Underwhelming. 4)Money- be prepared to pay a LOT of $$ constantly. We put down very large non-refundable deposits and then the school Changed their requirements for parent volunteering- with threats of fines for non-compliance. Lunches- we were promised handmade/homemade meals from a school parent but received expensive, mediocre, unhealthy cafeteria food. "Retreat"- you will be charged for a retreat and we were told it would be camping at Forest Home but it was sleeping on the floor in the classroom. Weird & gross. If your kid forgets their P.E. Uniform- you will Be charged $$. Lots of extra charges! Sports, teacher wishlist, fundraisers, etc etc etc. They will nickel & dime you at every juncture. Bottom line- you are better off in public school. You get a better education from credentialed teachers, better campuses/opportunities, there is better accountability for teachers & staff and it's "free". This school is mentally, emotionally, socially and physically unhealthy for kids. This is OUR PERSONAL EXPERIENCE. I would not recommend attending here- absolutely no.
