This is our 2nd year at Landmark, and we couldn't be happier. There's no such thing as a perfect…read moreschool, but our three children are thriving here! I started with one child in high school, one in middle, and one in elementary, and I love that they stand by their mission to prepare each student to impact the world for Jesus Christ. I appreciate that there's a partnership with the parents and the school. It's not just the school's responsibility to teach my children academics and character, but rather they encourage parent participation! The teachers legitimately care for the students and go beyond their workday to communicate with me should there be something to discuss. As for college preparedness, my Junior has tools to help her decide on colleges. They have two counselors to help guide students each step of the way. Not to mention, they offer AP classes and several Dual Enrollment classes to help aid with the cost of college. They are open to hearing from parents and their concerns. In middle school, their principal is sweet and kind, but knows when to be stern. I adore their assistant principal as well. Elementary is precious and I love all the field trips and hands on activities that are available. The entire school has access to gardening and earth sustainable teachings as well! They have two gardens that they harvest throughout the year where students can sample their plants (they make amazing salsa). And to even talk about their academies and special interest classes (such as filmmaking, fashion design, engineering, aviation, art) just blew me away when I toured the school. I wasn't sold on the school until I toured it! Can't recommend it enough!

We were specially told that she wouldn't be a fit because if the discussion came up in class amongst the other children that we weren't married, it would make other children think it was ok. Mind you, my daughter then was 5, and scoring above average in reading and math. We were told to come back when married and now that I am, I would NEVER enroll my daughter there. They should be ashamed of themselves. And they're supposed to be a Christian school. And of course we're African American.

GPCP is different than any other school in town, and I am so proud to be part of this community…read more The reggio emilia approach to child-centered learning and play makes it so fun. Our two sons, who are 1.5 and 3.5 years old, love it, and we are in our 3rd year here. Our teachers are uh-mazing (I get jealous how much my kids sometimes run to their teachers instead of me. Belinda (the atelierista) gets our kids exploring museum worthy art projects (who knew toddlers could do all this?!) and she helps them appreciate and interact with nature. You'll never get the flexibility you get like you do at GPCP. It's more affordable than any other comparable option (my husband does an excel spreadsheet for all things financial). Where else can you pay what we do for as little or as much child care as you need? Only sending your kid for M/W/F but need a random Tuesday for aftercare? Yours!  Every single one of my friends at other "preschools"  (daycares) who have left GPCP have made me really appreciate GPCP. These families usually left because they have the kind of jobs where they just couldn't participate to the level we are required here (neither parent can leave work to do parent helper days for example). Their schools have a lot of great things that I sometimes envy, such as less parent requirements. We do a lot of "parent helper days" and committee meetings. It's safe, nurturing. Like most cooperative non profit schools, they can be a tad more disorganized, and they take off for many holidays and staff development days (either my husband or I have to take work off, or arrange additional childcare, which is a lot of hassle). But believe me, there's a major tradeoff.... What my friends at these other schools all complain about is that they don't really feel like they have any sense of community. They don't know the other parents, kids, or families. They describe a much more transactional, "corporate" feel. And... they all miss GPCP and wish they had the kinds of jobs that were more flexible (or more family support) so they could return. These parents know that they are paying for a child care service, and that they lost the sense of community that came with GPCP. They complain that they don't know the other families and have more of a "hi" and "bye" interaction with most other families (and teachers). Sure, parents there don't have to work nearly as hard as we have to, but psychologically most of us all tend to care more about whatever we've put some sweat equity into. We have hosted many of our GPCP teachers and parents to our (very untidy) house with their kids for playdates, dinner, school camping trips and even some major holidays; we've even vacationed with several families. We really know our fellow GPCP families. Unfortunately, GPCP just isn't built for every child or family, especially for those who are just wanting (or needing) full time, nothing-else-required-of-parents type of child care. Most of us GPCP families are privileged enough to have the option to do something like this school. All of us have at least one family member with the kind of flexibility necessary to participate in this kind of model (we have a lot of entrepreneurs, business owners, freelancers part-timers, or at least some family support (grandparents) to actually have the time and bandwidth to participate as much as we do.  We have created a place that feels more like a home than a "daycare". We GPCP families are also typically cut from a different cloth, and we truly value our "cooperative", very parent-participatory model of early childhood education. We not only get the privilege of watching our children and their friends at school together, we are actively involved and shaping their school environment. I wouldn't have it any other way.

This school is amazing and there is nothing else quite like it in the city. The parents that…read morecomplain about it forget that the school is a cooperative experience - and is only as good as they make it. You can walk right into the Executive Directors office or come to a public Board meeting. My son has been at the school since he started walking and he just turned 5. All his best friends are his classmates. He knows all his friends parents because they hang out with him on their Parent Helper day. This is a comfortable and super fun environment with the most lovable educators you've ever seen. The educators believe in child-led so their curriculum is based on what the class is into. However, it is a lot of work on the side. There is some committee work and parent helper days (you work at the school about once a month) but it's more of an opportunity to be more involved in your child's education and development. I highly recommend this school to any parent who loves a granola, community-oriented vibe for their children. It's not only very affordable for childcare but a healthy lunch is also provided with tuition!

As a proud parent of two daughters--one in high school and the other in middle school--at Impact…read moreLeadership Christian Academy, I can confidently say that this school has been a true blessing to our family. From day one, we've felt welcomed and supported by a community that genuinely cares about the academic, spiritual, and personal development of each student. The teachers and staff go above and beyond to create a nurturing, Christ-centered environment where our girls are not only challenged academically but also encouraged to grow in character and faith. Our high school daughter has absolutely thrived. She's receiving a top-notch education that is preparing her for college and life beyond, but what we value just as much is the leadership training and the strong biblical foundation she's building. She's becoming a confident, thoughtful young woman with a clear sense of purpose--and we know that's no accident. Impact Leadership Christian Academy is shaping her to be a leader who lives by her values. Our middle school daughter is equally flourishing. She's embraced learning in a way we hadn't seen before--engaged, enthusiastic, and eager to grow. She's surrounded by teachers who see her potential and encourage her daily. We've also seen such positive growth in her spiritual walk, and it's been beautiful to witness her excitement about Bible study, chapel, and service projects. The balance of academic rigor, leadership development, and spiritual formation at ILCA is truly unmatched. The small class sizes and close-knit community mean our girls are known, valued, and supported every step of the way. We're so thankful to be part of the Impact family and couldn't be more proud of who our daughters are becoming under their guidance. We wholeheartedly recommend ILCA to any family looking for a school that partners with you in raising strong, faith-filled, future-ready leaders.

The Administration/staff are supportive and encouraging yet no nonsense, which is necessary for students success. Both of our students actually look forward to going to school each day, and have established positive friendships with their classmates.

It takes the effort and partnership of both the School AND the Parents & Students working together to grow a new school and create a positive environment. Thank you Impact for being a safe place for our Babies, holding them accountable, teaching them Biblical Principles and practical life lessons/skills, especially now.

There's a track around the soccer field and this is also open to the public. I love the fact that they have the field and track open to the public to use as I can go out there and kick a ball around in my free time.

Got my kid into all 3, and chose IPCP. Why did we choose it? The co-op approach. It's not for everyone -- you might just want a transactional relationship with your preschool, you do you -- but I was looking for a place where I could feel more involved. The coolest way to get involved is as a Parent Helper -- 1 day per month you get to (have to) work as a teacher's helper in the classroom. That's a lot of fun, you get to see what your kid is doing all day, and you learn a few new songs. Also love the outdoor focus - unless it's pouring, kids spend almost half their day outside, which I think makes my son happier and less cranky. The biggest downside is that they have limited space. So may Lady Luck be on your side.
