    i agree with everyone here that said it's ghetto of course, they're planning is absolute garbage…read moreafter they canceled the March 10th spring dance over " weather" they said they're going to reschedule it a week later but it turns out that actually didn't liars. The lunch food is absolute garbage what are they feeding us. They failed to maintain the bathrooms. and there is always paper on the toilet stalls.

    So our website is pretty darn ghetto and I didn't know they were opening up some new-fangled middle…read moreschool. This is one of the largest schools in Indiana, as far as I recall them cramming down our throats. When I was there I think the enrollment was at something like 2,600 or 2,800. It's a tri-town school that takes students from Dyer, St. John and Schererville (that's me). And it's really not a bad school if you don't want it to be. I mean, sure, I hated half of high school... but who doesn't? Eh. Nothing new. I made awesome friends here, even if I don't talk to a lof of them anymore. I slacked for a decent chunk of my high school career (in some classes I didn't... notably my Computer Applications classes and my Arts & Crafts classes) when I really shouldn't have (can't really change that at this point) but not many of my teachers were classifable as 'bad'... some were certainly more boring than others, but there were some outstanding ones to balance it out. And even if I didn't do a lot of my homework (doh) I still did fairly well in class... so my teachers mostly just pressed me to try to do my homework. Which I kind of didn't... uh... but let's not talk about that, really. Yeah, looking back I really have to admit it wasn't half bad. I'd like to go back and see some of my teachers. If I ever decided to spawn (no thanks), I wouldn't really have an issue sending my kids here. It's really a pretty decent school in a nice area. I hated it while I was there, but looking back I'm pretty sure it was a decent education. Yeah. Sorry I slacked so much in C++, Wally! Science Olympiad 4 lyfe. Also, seriously, woman? That chalk piece you had me put in the NWI Art Show was fucking hideous and I hated it. HOORAY. But I do appreciate the placement in the extracurricular figure drawing classes.

They are loved and soaring academically and we are blessed with an amazing team of gifted individuals providing the best education for our kids.

    This school may not be the right fit for everyone, speaking from our experience…read more While they offer a variety of engaging activities, I found them lacking in the fundamental resources and support that a school should have. Our preschooler had a short and unsuccessful period there, culminating in an unexpected request for us to leave with only a week's notice. This not only felt like a waste of time and resources but also made it challenging to find alternative care in the middle of the school year. Unfortunately, my child now experiences anxiety when entering any school setting, which is a significant concern. Additionally, I was disappointed to learn that deposits and school materials are non-refundable due to their "standard process." I also noticed that there were no requirements or assessments for the cohort my child was in, which raised concerns about the overall standards. The protocol and procedures for student removal are vague, almost nonexistent, creating mismatched expectations for us. We also felt that the school lacks diversity, as it seems to favor a specific type of student while not adequately addressing the emotional needs of the kids. Despite these challenges, I would recommend this school to parents of typical, average smart kids who are prepared to engage in the learning process. Parents should also be prepared for year-long donation requests via email, text, and automated phone calls, plus in average one week no school per school month. Overall, we're relieved to have moved on from this experience.

    I had prayed and contemplated this review for months now. I wasn't sure I wanted to share our…read moreexperience at this school, but if this review helps just 1 student, then it will be worth it. We saw some red flags at the school after the first year of sending 2 of our children here. One of our children was held back due to failing one class, and barely passing another. Both of those classes were taught by the same teacher. We hired a tutor for the next year and that child's grade went from an F to a C with only having a once a week tutor session. That speaks volumes. This teacher continued to NOT teach class. The school did not discipline or replace. Instead the "smartest" student would often teach the class. Our kids were often put down by the teachers with such phrases like "I don't even want to be teaching." Or "I don't get paid enough for this crap." It was obvious these teachers were unhappy and they passed that onto their students. Last fall, after trying to communicate with staff about our child's bad grades, we received no help at all. We realized that after 2+ years we were doing our children a disservice by keeping them in this school. We made the choice to enroll them elsewhere, but agreed they should finish out the year at PCCA. However, this spring an incident caused us to pull our children before 3rd quarter was over. After we made the school aware of the incident, they circled the wagons. They lied, covered up, and downplayed the incident. No apology, no remorse, and no repercussions. Since pulling out our children we have been homeschooling them. We have tried to get documents and our children's schoolwork from them, only to be running in circles. They have refused to allow us access to our children's Google classroom so they can get their work. When they finally allowed us access, everything was DELETED. They refuse to send us research papers and class notes. This behavior speaks volumes to their integrity and just how much they care about their students. There is so much more, but for the sake of my own sanity, this is where I will leave it. My children will have scars from this school and (most) of the staff there. But "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." God has already been working through this awful experience, and I hope that our experience will help others.

    Plum Creek Christian Academy has taught 3 of my children and I am so.thankful to have found them 13…read moreyears ago. They strive to teach the whole child, leaving them well rounded, equipped in every area with a strong biblical world view. Highly recommend Plum Creek!
