As a result, the schools are not considered an issue right now (no mention that I heard in the mayoral race). But the schools are pretty mediocre (some schools are great, as good as any private school education while others are very troubled) and the "main office" is TERRIBLE. It's as bad as any bureaucracy I could name.

I'm at the school a lot whether it's with my kid or with my dance team. Although it seems clean,…read moreit's an older building with several issues. The gym is big. It accommodates several people. It shows the history of the different athletic achievements. There's a really nice trophy case that's full of accomplishments! The cafeteria seems to hold different sport team practices at the same time as well as hallways and anywhere else athletes can find a place to practice. The school is huge, but looks like it possibly has a leak and mold issue. It's interesting that this school doesn't have 2 gyms like most in Fayette County. Overall, the campus is huge and an elementary and middle school shares its location. I think it just needs upgrades for the students and teachers sake.

Counselors tell parents everything, making the students feel as they can't talk to anyone. Also the teachers r lowk terrible besides Mr stites and bowmer and Mrs proffit!! They are probably the only people I will miss in the whole school. All of my friends hate this school and fights be going on alllll the time and the ceiling is always leaking and one year a spider outbreak happened and I could even go into the classroom we had to use extra ones it was terrible and it took them a year to get them out and kids are always vaping in the restroom and doing uhm other things...

The gym…read moreteacher and orchestra teacher (assuming they are still employed here) were amazing and the only redeeming qualities. Math teacher Mrs. Britney Richardson traumatized me so hard I remember her 5 years after, we got into a very serious verbal argument one morning where she yelled at me in front of all my peers, dismissing every explanation I had and putting me down at any chance. My breaking point (where I chose to sit in silence for the rest of the school year) was when she said with full confidence that I was "playing with needles, showing them off to other kids.", completely smearing and humiliating me. It was 7th grade, I had just been diagnosed a Type 1 diabetic and was showing a few of my closest friends how to properly use life saving emergency medication, as instructed by my doctor (glad I did because she clearly knew nothing of my diagnosis, if I passed out in her class I probably would've died there.). I was horrifically stunned and upset, and when she saw my gapping mouth she got a real cocky, mean smirk on her face, like she had outwitted a 13 year old. She should've been fired or reprimanded but no. It is still extremely upsetting, even as an adult with a diploma. Worst teacher I've ever had in 6 different schools. Wouldn't send my kid there if it was the last option.

In fact, they are helping her get to the grade she is supposed to be in and works with her when she needs extra time on assignments or needs to complete missing assignments. They offer tutoring which is really nice as well. They offer lots of sports and clubs so children can get involved as much as possible. Great school.

The office staff is great, the principal is the best elementary principal I've ever seen. He knows every child. And is highly involved in all school functions. Doesn't pass it to an assistant. One of my children had been to several schools prior to stonewall during elementary years due to my husbands job. This was the only school he was ever happy at. Teachers are great and so much parent participation. Small town feel but at a bigger school with all the modern technology the kids need. You could not ask for a better school for your kids to start off at. You won't want them to leave!

Lexington Christian Academy drew me away from God. I came to the school in search for a Christian…read morecommunity that would help me grow in my faith, but in fact, it drew me far away from it. I was surrounded by people calling themselves Christians - while at the exact same time, I saw them tear down the very ones made in His image. An example of this being my entire class and upperclassmen (with the exception of few), making fun of one girl who struggled with a disability. They made an Instagram "fan page" of her - her profile picture being black snakes coming out of her eyes. I was once told by a staff member that, on another occasion, an entire grade dressed up as one student in order to make fun of her. But, because the staff "could not prove the bullying," they did nothing to stop it. However, I would be lying if I did not say there are some genuinely kind teachers at the school that truly love their students. But, that will most likely not be the takeaway in your child's experience at LCA. In the classroom, things from the Bible are skewed in their teaching. For example, it's taught that if you're anxious, you're not a true Christian. It's taught that if you pray for doctors and nurses, rather than solely God's miracles, you're not truly believing in the power of God. Teachings like these saturate the classroom. There is extremely little diversity, though their deceptive marketing will put a minority poster child on the front page of their website. What I experienced at LCA was truly traumatic to me. If you are considering sending your child there, and they are at all doubting their faith in whatever way, please prayerfully re-consider. I write this review out of deep disturbance and concern for your child's faith.
