Attended a Friday night high school football game at this school,…read more First and foremost, each and every employee I came in contacts with was very friendly and helpful (thank you!!) The football field is in great condition, seating is comfortable and offers a great view, food offered in the snack bar was excellent and the breeze one feels here on a hot afternoon/evening is perfect to keep you cool. The ONLY negative issue was the restroom. For the men, there is only one toilet and no urinals which resulted in a long line for most of the game. Definitely a challenge if you are a big water drinker like myself but also like myself, we all dealt with it as best we could all night. Five stars for the amazing hospitality, food, seats etc.. four stars for the restroom situation

My child was bullied and got no real help from teachers, staff, or the counselors when it happened. In sports, she never got a fair shot because of favoritism - certain kids were clearly favored and got the playing time and attention, while mine was pushed aside. More than once, staff took the other kids' side over hers without even hearing her out. Not exactly what I'd expect from a school that claims to run on biblical principles. Also, the emails we got from Reggie Stephens were AI generated. Cold, generic, no real answers to the actual concerns we brought up. If that's the level of effort put into communicating with parents, it tells you a lot. We paid a lot of money for this school and got basically nothing in return. No support for our kid when it mattered most. She started at her new school today and is already so much happier. The staff there is genuinely superior in every way - support, communication, they actually care. Night and day difference. Wish we'd made the switch sooner. Would not recommend Western Christian to anyone looking for real support for their kid.

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.
