I was able to imagine the various generations of Vista kids attending this pristine white (even if with some maintenance needed) school. I loved so many details, from the 1930s water fountains to the skates 'parking lot'. They have a memorial fragrant rose garden and the trees are just gorgeous. So much greenery and open spaces. I like the architecture of this school a lot and the memories the past I imagine were made here. Another cute touch are the tiles also Spanish style.

I had the privilege of attending Tri-City from 7th grade to 12th grade and I'd like to share my…read moreexperience as a student. I give this school a massive amount of credit for how my life has turned out. I always felt supported, encouraged, and academically challenged throughout my time at Tri-City. The teachers constantly went above and beyond to invest into the students. Sports wise, when I decided to join the track team, I was supported in a way that made the experience extremely fulfilling and confidence-building. Because of Tri-City's excellent instruction, I was able to get a near-perfect score on the SAT, got accepted into UCLA, and graduated with highest departmental honors. All while staying true to the faith and values that were instilled in me at Tri-City. My sister and I are extremely grateful for the experience we had here, so much so that now the next generation of our family attends the school. While no school is perfect, I truly only have good things to say about Tri-City and I would highly recommend sending your children here if you want them to be grounded, protected, encouraged, and inspired. This is the place.

My son attended Tri-City Christian School from Pre-K through 4th grade. In the early years, we had…read moresome truly wonderful experiences. Teachers like Mrs Bicum, Mrs Cinors Mrs.Lever, Mrs. Theis, and Mrs. Mackey were caring, dedicated, and genuinely invested in helping him succeed. I will always be grateful for the kindness and effort they showed our family. Unfortunately, our experience changed dramatically in 4th grade. My son struggled with reading and had educational needs that required additional support. Instead of receiving the help and encouragement he needed, it felt like the school gave up on him. He went from being a student who earned B and C grades to receiving failing grades, and we saw very little effort to help him maintain the academic progress he had made over the years. During this time, our family was also wrongly accused by a teacher, which resulted in a report being made to CPS. We found this experience deeply upsetting. We were also concerned to learn that the same teacher allegedly shared private information about our family with other parents without our knowledge, which further damaged our trust in the school community. As parents, we were repeatedly made to feel that our son no longer belonged at the school because of his learning challenges and his need for an IEP. Rather than partnering with us to help him succeed, we felt pressured to find another school. The message we received was that Tri-City Christian was not willing or able to support a child who learned differently. If your child is a strong student who does not require academic accommodations and excels in sports, your experience may be very positive. However, if your child struggles with reading, is behind academically, has an IEP, or may need one in the future, I would strongly encourage you to carefully consider whether this school can provide the support your child deserves. What hurt the most was that this happened at a Christian school. By the end of our time there, I felt embarrassed and unwelcome on campus. Every child deserves patience, encouragement, and support--especially when they are struggling. Sadly, that was not our experience during our final years at Tri-City Christian.

And the principal, Cesar Morales, is a rock star principal who really cares about being fair and making things right. The only hiccups here come from being a new ("startup") school - which meant early on we had some dud teachers and few course options - but those issues are fading away as the school grows. It's an academically challenging school but my student has done well and is prepared for university next year. There are a lot of false rumors out there from people trying to start a rivalry but if you're considering this school I encourage you to take the tour and talk to actual students and parents!
