Our kids went in as…read morekindergarteners and are looking forward to 1st grade and from the beginning we could see that their mission and vision are taken seriously. The school works hard to make sure those values are carried into the classroom, interactions with students, and the overall culture. You can tell the staff is intentional--there's consistency in expectations, follow-through in teaching, and a steady focus on helping students become thoughtful, responsible learners. It's more than just academics; it feels like a school that's truly committed to its purpose. We're thankful for the effort they put in and how supported our kids have felt.

I have three children - one in high school, one in middle school and one in elementary school - and…read morethey have all attended since kindergarten. We absolutely love this school. My husband and I always wanted our children to have a Christian education but were new to Katy when our oldest turned 5. When we enrolled in 2017, BCA was extremely small (only 40 kids). Each year the school has grown and next year I hear we will have 400 students K through 12. This is really exciting, because the highschoolers will have more opportunities such as athletics through TAPPS and FFA. My kids are athletic and love to play multiple sports. At BCA sports begin in 5th grade and they are able to play volleyball, flag football, basketball, and run track and cross country. Apparently it's on the horizon that BCA will offer baseball and 7 man tackle football soon as well. While it is wonderful that we are now able to provide some of these opportunities to the kids, that is not what keeps us at BCA. BCA is special because while many schools are Christian only in name, BCA teaches every single subject through a biblical lens. Why do we teach students math? Because God is a God of order and He gave us math as a tool - it is worthy of learning! Why teach students science? Because all the world is His creation. We also value BCA teachers are not simply trying to cram information into students so that they test well - they want the students to love learning. I feel like every teacher my child has had (and at this point we have had over 50 across my 3 children) has truly seen my child for who they are and worked with them to grow their individual gifts and improve areas where they struggle. The teachers don't just care for the students during the school year either - it's year round. My daughter's math teacher is hosting a Bible study for her home over the summer for the girls. Another thing I love about BCA is that they teach the kids to treat others with respect. The students say "yes ma'am" and "no sir" to teachers and other authority. Boys pull out chairs for girls and hold doors open, and girls say thank you in return. In an era where chivalry seems relatively dead, we get a lot of compliments on the students for having this basic etiquette. I also really appreciate that it is a cell phone free campus. There are no Chromebooks, and no student is allowed to have a cell phone at any point during the school day no matter what their age or grade. While I initially wondered how my kids would learn to do assignments on a computer if there were non at school, they do learn in upper school. My 9th grader has become proficient in typing and has performed many assignments online, while also being a confident public speaker. Public speaking has huge emphasis at BCA - there are various assignments and opportunities throughout the year in which each and every student presents or recites in front of their peers. Finally, it's a wonderful community of parents. Volunteering is a requirement at the school - each family must volunteer a minimum of 20 hours. That leads to parents being on campus often and getting to know one another. There are also lots of social opportunities for parents - there are moms coffee dates, moms night out, dads nights, a book club, and more. If you want a Christ centered education for your kids, this is it!

All 3 of my kiddos attended this school and were/are alpha omegas (prek/kinder thru 12th grade)…read more My youngest is entering high school and has grown so much spiritually, academically, and emotionally. This school is a nuturing environment. Love that the faculty really lives their motto of "knowing, loving and preparing your child...". I see this lived out daily in each of their lives. The strong academics offered and the smaller class sizes help foster the relationships and deeper conversations on subjects. As a Christian school, the religious aspect is an underlying presence in all they do all day every day! Just know that not each child may flourish in their environment - and that is OK (even in the same family)- each child is unique and is treated as such. They make a great effort in partnering with families.

Our journey with Hill Country Christian School began in a unique and very personal way. I first…read morejoined the Hill Country family as a middle school girls volleyball coach in 2019 and was later hired on as a teacher in 2022. What I couldn't have predicted then was how much joy this place would bring to my family and me. Very early on, I knew in my heart that I wanted my own children to experience that same joy, love, and purpose. One of the most beautiful things about Hill Country is how the school truly lives out its mission: to know your child, love your child, and prepare your child. The teachers go above and beyond in caring for my child not just academically, but spiritually and emotionally. Every day, I see the intentional ways they invest in him, and it's deeply moving as both a parent and an educator. The spiritual growth I've witnessed in my son has been incredible. He's only in Pre-K, but already he's learning to pray, engaging with God's Word, and building a foundation that will last a lifetime. Hearing him pray every night before bed, without prompting, is one of the greatest blessings I could ever ask for as a mom. What makes Hill Country especially impactful is how every subject is taught through a Biblical worldview. It's not just about teaching math or reading; it's about teaching truth, character, and purpose. Our children are learning to love Jesus through every lesson and every experience. This matters so much to our family because we want our children to grow in their relationship with Christ, not just know about Him. Hill Country creates endless opportunities for families to be involved and serve together. It's a place where students and families are encouraged to be the hands and feet of Jesus in every area of life. That kind of culture is rare. If I had to choose one main reason to recommend Hill Country to a friend, it would be this: community. You will find a deeply caring, Christ-centered community here. We support each other in tangible ways through prayers, shared meals, encouraging words, and acts of kindness. It truly feels like family.

I stayed for chapel just the other day (occurs most Mondays) and I couldn't help but be overwhelmed to know how my kids are starting their week, focused on God, and giving thanks to Him.

Both have made National Honor Society, received recognition in extra-curricular activities, and are taking college level courses. This is culture at Brentwood, to work hard and push past personal limitations. They are being prepared for college and life but still are allowed to be kids and have fun. I have my kids here for 3 reasons: 1) the academic expectations are substantially higher than most public schools and many private schools so being taught at levels well beyond the standard will set them up for success in whatever they choose to do, 2) they can participate in any extra-curricular activities they want to be in, 3) it is a Christian school, meaning the moral and ethical standards they are held to are high. The community is great as well which makes it even better for parents and students. Is it perfect? No, but if you want the best for your kids, academically, spiritually and help them grow to be strong minded adults who add to society this is a place for them. Brentwood students compete and win at high levels in state competitions for academics, arts, sports, etc. Tuition is less than many other private schools yet they are still at or near the top in academic ratings and categories. It has been a great investment in our kids.
