My son Transferred from a wonderful Montessori school in South Holland that he was aging out of. I…read morehad planned to research schools for him to attend in a year after he completed 3rd grade, his final year at the Montessori school. I visited this school and one other nearby private school. The first private school I visited costed less, but the administrator was very abrasive. Without ever meeting my son or looking at his grades, she told me that my son may not do well, because of the school he was transferring from. Then she began to bad mouth his school and told me that if he couldn't keep up, i would need to pay someone outside of the school to tutor him, and that if that didn't work, the school would kick him out. When she learned that I was not enrolling him until the next year, she tried to pressure me to enroll him right away. It was NOT a pleasant experience. THEN, I reached out to Calvin Christian School. I liked what I saw on their website. And the admissions administrator, Tanya,, called me right away. We arranged to meet and she spent a substantial amount of time answering my questions. She also pointed out the additional assistance the school offers to ensure that every child succeeds. She told me that in the spirit of Christ, it is their goal to make sure that they meet each child where they are and help build them up. I truly felt the love of God in this place. From Principal Moes who knows each child by name and takes the time to get know then personally, to the kids and their families- who are very welcoming and Christ-like. I was so imp that I enrolled my son that year, even though I hadn't planned to. He attended for 6 years and graduated in 2020. Sidenote: he did not need extra help, as the previous school had asserted he would. He is now attending high school in his sophomore year and is taking all honors and AP classes and earning all "A"s. He ranked #2 of 498 freshmen. And Calvin prepared him to excel at the next level. Highly recommend this school!

Calvin Christian is an awesome school. My daughter has been going there since Pre-K 4 and will be…read moregraduating from the 8th grade this year. Calvin Students receive a top notch education in a Christian environment. One thing I personally will miss next year when my daughter enters high school will be the leadership of Principal Randy Moes. Principal Moes is truly a man of honor and integrity. I would recommend Calvin Christian to anyone. My only regret is that the school doesn't go up to high school.
