Thank God for schools like Vineland! My son has blossomed at this school. He still has social deficits but is above average in Academics! The staff at Vineland is so understanding and wonderful with the kids, from teachers, to paras, to administration, to the school nurse. If your child is in need and part of Twin Rivers School District don't hesitate to contact them!

When my daughter was diagnosed with Autism, I didn't know where to begin with what resources would…read morebe available for her. I quickly did my research and began to gather referrals for schools. I toured Vineland and was impressed with the structure, how friendly all the staff were, and how much my mind was at ease. My daughter began preschool in Miss May's class and absolutely loved it, looked forward to going to school everyday. The school psychologist, Ms. Bartlett, the secretary, the TA's, the speech therapist, all made my daughter and family feel welcome and showed my daughter so much love. I was always so nervous about her riding the school bus, but it came a point where I had to do it for work and she was always picked up on time, safe and sound travels to school, and it took such a load off of me to know she was always in safe hands. I am so grateful that Vineland was the introduction into my daughter's education, and that she was blessed to have a village of folks ready to advocate and care for her.

Horrid. The school is extremely horrible. I got bullied so hard, I been insulted, I been harassed,…read moreand even gotten bruises because of the staffs/teachers not doing anything. There was only 1 teacher was actually good. But my math/science teacher yelled at me in front of the class because I was late many times, but i was late because I had extreme mental episodes and breakdowns because this school genuinely ruined me. The staff when I entered the school for the first time was already sassy with my older sister and even told me about it, and I remember calling the front office about the bullies who physically harmed me and they talked rudely and acted like it was my fault. It took an extreme toll on my mental health and it even made me extremely depressed. That has also made me go turn into online school because of how bad it was. I know it's a different experience for everyone. But for me, it was the worst.

I will begin with stating that our child was 6 years old in 2nd grade, which is young. He started a new school and we were getting a phone call every single day. EVERY SINGLE DAY. He is not that bad as he has had perfect days in his new school. We had already told them that he would need a transition time adjust to this new school and older schoolmates. The story begins..... The principal, Kelvin Jackson, told our child to "Shut up and come with me." after a particularly tough day at school. He did sent us an apology letter. As his father, I could accept that, but we knew that this wasn't the school for him to grow in faith or academically. We did pay over $600+ for him to be in school for a whole 8 days. We spoke with the on-site superintendent, Jason Yarbrough, (the only other review for the school, see below) after initially getting blown off by him the week before. He stated that we HAVE TO PAY $65 FOR AN EARLY TERMINATION FEE!!! We respectfully let him know that we had pulled him out from the principals actions, but that didn't matter as he continuously pointed out the behavior of our child and justify his principal. Of course we are going above and beyond to let parents know and are getting in contact with the school board. Charles

Let me first say that nobody is as cautious as me when it comes to deciding what school I was going…read moreto put my son in to begin his school life. I am so happy I picked Natomas Christian School (NCS). Prior to my son starting school in August-2015 my beautiful wife and mother to my son died from cancer in January-2015. Needless to say we were still deep in our grief. I was faced with having to decide on the best school for my son that would understand the emotional trauma he was in and would work with me to make his transition as smooth as it could be under the circumstances. I looked at both public school and private schools. I quickly knew public school was not an option. My son needed a school that shared the same Christian beliefs as me, promoted prayer in school, did not use the Common Core curriculum, was affordable, had extended care, had a summer program and had small class sizes. NCS met my expectations to the letter. My son's kindergarten teacher (Mrs. Flowers) was the perfect teacher. She had a background in Psychology and was an experienced teacher. My son's transition was rough in the beginning but his teacher and school prayed for him and worked with him. In time he adjusted fine and was reading by Christmas! He is also good at double digit math and his overall confidence level has improved tremendously. I highly recommend NCS to anyone looking for a new school with small class sizes who view educating kids in the way it should be done. The staff and teachers are top notch and I'm very happy with where my son is emotionally, spiritually and academically. God Bless NCS!!

The parents of the baseball kids are especially horrible; teaching their kids to litter, avoid taking responsibility when they damage someone's property, teaching them that it's ok to TRESPASS onto someone's property and that it is ok to illegally park on someone's lawn and damage it. It's no wonder the school's already non-existent funds were cut, they might as well just shut down this school.
