Our son has been going to TKA for a couple of years now and it was the right choice for us. We're so glad that there's a school close to us that not only teaches kids academics but also teaches them moral lessons which I think is the most important. The staff here are great too. They do care about the kids and are very attentive to their emotional and academic needs. One thing that is amazing as well is that it's a small school so the staff knows pretty much all of the children. Ms. Angie and Mrs. Baeckel greet each kid by name and their families during drop offs and pick ups every single day- rain or shine. We really appreciate the extra care and attention because you know they're safe having two pairs of watchful eyes to see who comes in and out of the property. My son also is learning so well. His reading I think is advanced and they teach them how to write in cursive at a young age too. He's made lots of friends and even the parents know each other and are connected as well. I don't think you will get that in a big/public school. We are happy that we enrolled our child here. We will stay for a while. read more

The King's Academy is an absolute treasure! We are so incredibly thankful to be sending our son (and in a couple of years our daughter as well) to this school! We did a lot of research before deciding where to begin kindergarten, and toured several schools, hoping to find one that stood out above the rest. The King's Academy is it. I can't imagine a better place for an excellent Christian education in the Reno/Sparks area. The staff are wonderful. The teachers are so amazing, experienced, loving, compassionate, and we really can feel how much they truly care for our son. He is having the most wonderful experience. I can honestly say that since my son began attending The King's Academy, he has come into his own genuine, authentic faith. He loves God, he knows God better, he asks so many great questions. Best of all, he tells me all the time now "I love you so much Mom, but I love God more." It is such a comforting feeling to have the utmost confidence in both the quality of the academics, as well as the spiritual environment of the school. We love the smaller class sizes and greater level of attention that the teachers are able to pay to each student, and therefore their enhanced ability to tailor the education to each child's unique needs. I attend chapel every week (parents and families are always welcome to join the students there) and absolutely love it! I love seeing the children having a great time and also receiving such quality, Christ-centered Biblical teaching. It's wonderful. There have been so many times that, unprompted, my son will ask me "Mom, can I please keep going to King's Academy all the way to 8th grade? I love it there!" What more could you want to hear from your child? We cannot recommend The King's Academy enough, it is one of the best decisions we've ever made for our children. read more

After having our son at 2 other schools in Reno, we have found our school home at The King's Academy. This is his 3rd year there, and we grow to appreciate it more and more each year! The amazing teachers there helped him get back up to grade level work in Math, and for the first time ever, we heard him say, "math is fun!" Moreover, the school's Bible-based approach to shepherding students when there are disciplinary issues shows the love of Jesus to students to guide and lovingly correct them instead of shaming them when they make mistakes. We can truly say the school takes a partnership approach with families in each student's education, and we know without a doubt that the teachers and staff love and are praying for our kiddo. The curriculum also takes a biblical approach, particularly with Science and History, helping students understand things like how God's design for creation has order, logic, and purpose. The school stands out as an overtly Christian education program and community, teaching and preparing students for their futures with rigorous academics and positive study habits, while also helping them grow spiritually in their relationship with Christ. We have not found any other school like TKA and are so excited for our daughter to start kindergarten there next year, too! read more

The Kings Academy has been a blessing to my daughter and our family. From the teachers to the curriculum, we couldn't be more pleased. I remember when I attended my daughter's kindergarten orientation and the teacher made a statement that all the students would be reading at the end of the year. Sure enough, they all were reading and I remember being so impressed and proud of my daughter. I would recommend this school to anyone who wants the best grounded education for their children. read more

What can I say? Our oldest has been going here since we moved to Reno in 2010 and Irene has always been an integral part of our sons future. Mrs. Margo was a great teacher for our son and molded his mind in the way of the world with a great heart and a strict learning schedule. His teachers have always made him feel as though he was the only one in his class and made sure he felt important. Now, our daughter goes to the adjoining preschool/kindergarten at His Kids Preschool and we wouldn't have it any other way. It's a drive for us living on the other side of town but these two learning institutions definitely make it worth the while. read more

Great private school. Challenging curriculum and caring, talented teachers. My son is already learning cursive and mathematics at 6 years old. Faith-based curriculum and small class ratio makes this a hidden gem among Reno area private schools. read more

This school is basically an overpriced babysitter. The curriculum is OUTDATED. The math is so basic and so outdated all the students that move on from here are behind public schools in mathematics . They dont teach history in chronological order, its all over the place. The administration is stuck in the 80's. The teachers are great, careing, and genuinely care for the students. But all in all your just not getting a worthwhile education read more

I totally disagree with the other review. Both of my kids attend this school and we have been very happy. The curriculum is A Beka and it is one to two years above public school. Children who attend this school do very well in public school and have high test scores. Friends who have kids the same age as mine are always amazed on what my kids are learning. My first grader is an excellent reader and speller, writes beautiful cursive and understands the fundamentals of multiplication. My daughter in second grade probably knows more about the bible than I do. Classes are really small with 8-12 student per class. The principal and teachers are wonderful. They are so caring. They also offer tutoring to the children for free. We love that they learn good values and that there are not any discipline issues at school. The weekly chapel is wonderful. I also like that they place kids based on their ability and not just their age. If you have an advanced Kindergartener, they can start early if they miss the public school cutoff. The school is really affordable and offers a top notch education. My kids love this school! read more
