The classes are small and challenging. Everyone knows everyone. Leadership is encouraged but not forced. This school helped me grow into who I am today as a Christ follower.

    This has been the most disappointing educational experience we have had…read more In my opinion, the current principal, John Bate, does not consistently make decisions that place students' best interests, safety, and educational needs first. There appears to be a lack of organization, inconsistent communication with parents regarding student concerns, and a pattern of decisions that many families have found frustrating. There have also been ongoing concerns from parents regarding school climate, fairness in decision-making, and whether all students are being supported equally. Several teachers and families have chosen to leave, which has raised additional concerns about stability and retention. Academically, I have concerns regarding the quality and rigor of some assignments. There were times materials appeared to come directly from Teachers Pay Teachers resources, and some assignments seemed below expected grade level standards. Parents should carefully review instructional materials and ask questions regarding curriculum alignment and academic expectations. I also encourage prospective families to ask questions about teacher certification status, staffing plans, student support systems, communication procedures, and administrative oversight. Many families remain because the school offers activities and athletic opportunities that are difficult to find elsewhere, which creates a challenging decision for parents. I do want to acknowledge that Dr. Roan appears committed to improving the school and creating positive change. However, in my opinion, meaningful improvement will require stronger leadership, greater accountability, improved communication, and a clearer focus on student outcomes. I strongly encourage prospective parents to speak directly with current families before enrolling. What appears positive from the outside may not fully reflect the day-to-day experience.
