I felt for the teachers that really did their best to provide a positive and educational place for the kids . Those great teachers were surrounded by grumpy and rude individuals who were better off not being around children at all . I kept my daughter there because we had just moved and I felt she needed the stability and she enjoyed the several good teachers as well as the friends she made . There was one situation in particular that really hurt my husband though . He went to pick up my daughter (his step daughter that he has known since she was about 1 1/2 ) as I waited in the car with our son . My daughter ran up to my husband gave him a hug and said let's go . One of the teachers approached him and said you aren't her dad and to go into the office , IN FRONT OF MY DAUGHTER ! I COULDNT BELIEVE IT . Keep in mind my daughters biological father has never even stepped foot onto the school . It was absolutely disgusting and very hurtful . Fast forward to Covid .... radio silence from the school . Not a email , letter in the mail , nothing . Come to find out the school has closed for good . I found that out through a parent I ran into . Again not a word from the school . I'm absolutely appalled by all of this . The pastor of this church needs to really check themselves , their spirit , and their career path . When you have put yourself in the position as a pastor you automatically are put to a higher standard .LIVE UP TO IT !

She just got on the varsity swim team and absolutely loves her school. She dreams of attending Caltech. My oldest is now 33 and met her husband at WCS - they now have three beautiful kids and lead a Godly life. My middle child started in preschool right across the way from where he graduated. Western focus' on spirituality, safety, education and the knowledge to excel in whatever your child dreams of. WCS works with parent's who really want for their kids, the best environment to thrive in. The sacrifice to have your kids attend this fantastic school will over exceed any hardship ever. I am forever grateful and if you really want the best for your kids, highly recommend WCS! I have referred several friends that had their kids attend; they got on a waiting list and were very impressed with the outcome of their kiddos. Thank you WCS for guiding my kids to be a much better version of myself. You're the best!!

First and foremost, I would like to express my profound dissatisfaction with Western Christian…read moreSchool. My son attended the school from second through sixth grade, and during that time he endured repeated bullying, harassment, and mistreatment from both fellow students and staff members. He was mocked because of his hair, physically shoved to the ground, and even grabbed and swung around by other students. The incidents became so severe that certain students were ultimately suspended. This all occurred during his very first year at the school. In addition to the physical bullying, my son was also socially isolated and harassed because he did not fit the stereotypical expectations of the other boys at the school. He was not interested in sports, and because of that, he was often excluded and targeted. He was criticized simply for being different. He was also harassed because of his appearance, despite always presenting himself in a clean, respectful, and well-groomed manner. Instead of embracing individuality, the environment at the school encouraged conformity and ridicule toward students who did not fit a particular mold. At one point, the son of a woman who worked in the office physically shoved my son during P.E. class. Rather than fostering a safe environment for students, the administration appeared dismissive of the ongoing issues. Additionally, Superintendent John Atwood demonstrated behavior that I found deeply one-sided and inappropriate. His son was dating one of the girls who had bullied and harassed my son, which created what I believe was a conflict of interest. When these issues were brought to the school's attention, nothing meaningful was done to address the harassment. After my son left the school, he continued participating in theater activities there because of friendships he had formed. Unfortunately, the bullying and harassment continued, this time involving both students and parents. When I contacted the school to report the matter, I was informed that neither my son nor I were welcome back on campus because I voiced concerns and filed complaints. What I found especially alarming was that after I made complaints regarding the bullying connected to the theater event, Superintendent John Atwood escalated the matter to the point that law enforcement contacted me. Rather than focusing on protecting a student who had already endured years of mistreatment, the situation felt intimidating and retaliatory. While attending Western Christian, my son was repeatedly given demerits because his hair extended beyond the collar line. Ironically, shortly after he left, the school changed its grooming policies and permitted longer hairstyles under a new principal. This only reinforced my belief that the treatment he received was unfair and unnecessarily targeted. I also want to say how incredibly proud I am of my son for the person he has become despite everything he endured during his years at Western Christian. He has grown into an exceptional young man and a true role model. I genuinely could not be prouder of him. He exceeded every expectation I ever had, not only academically, but more importantly as a human being. He is kind, compassionate, intelligent, respectful, and remarkably bright. Watching him overcome bullying and unfair treatment only made him stronger and more determined to succeed. Instead of allowing those experiences to define him negatively, he rose above them and became an even better person because of it. Once my son left Western Christian, he flourished academically and personally. He went on to outperform many students academically, including the majority of the current graduating senior class. He was accepted into one of the top-ranked colleges in the country and graduated high school having already earned four college degrees. He participated in marching band, served in ASB leadership, and genuinely enjoyed his educational experience. Most importantly, he was finally surrounded by teachers who valued and encouraged him rather than criticizing or humiliating him over superficial matters such as his hairstyle. I strongly do not recommend this school to families who want their children to feel supported, accepted, and encouraged to be individuals. To this day, I remain grateful that we made the decision to remove my son from Western Christian. Once he left, he became happier, more confident, and significantly more successful. He was never bullied again and finally experienced the encouragement and respect every child deserves. If I could offer any advice to parents considering this school, it would be this: run and run as fast as you can in the opposite direction.
