This review reflects our experience at the Val Vista campus only and is specific to the current…read moreadministration there: We enrolled believing a small, faith-based school would provide stronger leadership, accountability, and a more protected learning environment than public options. That was not our experience. Beneath the polished tours and Christian branding, leadership at this campus proved ineffective, dismissive, and unwilling to meaningfully address serious concerns raised by families. Many parents are drawn to a Christian school hoping to shield children from age-inappropriate influences; ironically, in our personal experience, our children were exposed to more inappropriate language and behavior here than they had been in a Chandler public school, with limited administrative response. Administration frequently emphasized high demand to attend, yet from our firsthand experience and conversations with other parents, just as many families appeared to be leaving. Academic quality and classroom professionalism raised serious questions about how teachers are hired, their qualifications, and why turnover seemed high. Tuition and a Christian label do not automatically guarantee a better education, stronger values, or responsible leadership. This review is shared in good faith to encourage families to look beyond appearances and ask direct questions about leadership accountability, discipline policies, teacher hiring practices, and retention before enrolling.

As a former student that used to attend this school for a very long time....Do not do it. I've been…read moreout of this school for a bit so I've had some time to really think about my experience. This school is very strict. It only makes the outspoken students more unruly, and the quiet ones more submissive. I heard some truly vile ideas being discussed in class from teachers and students. Mainly boys who would make violent sexual comments about girls and get away with it. At this school it was always minimizing the bad problems to not raise concern, and elevating the tiny problems to cover up what really needed to be addressed. Everything. I. Did. Was. An. Issue. I was terrified of these people and the way they intimidated me and my friends for just doing what kids do. The bad memories far outweigh the good. I wish I hadn't spent so much time here, I wish I could've spoken up for myself without being plagued by peer pressure. Lots of my former teachers had a superiority god complex and would try to overwhelm students into passivity. Going to hell should not be something elementary students should be afraid of. Young girls shouldn't be belittled and sexually shamed. These are supposed to be teachers, but their mindset reaks of, privileged, close minded white people with no accountability outside of themselves for who they're surround by. The education is one note, no room for any other opinion, no room for inclusivity. These are all growing children that will grow up to be very different people. The shameful, controlling, one way thinking is what damaged me the most..it breaks you down every day and children are the most impressionable. Under the smiles and scriptures plastered on the wall is all hate and aggression towards people who aren't like them.. loud worship music and a fancy campus doesn't eliminate the glaring problems with this school. These teachers are hypocrites. If you want your child to follow god, the worst thing you can do is shove it down their throats. I couldn't breathe at this school without feeling monitored, like I was walking on eggshells. It's neat, tidy, structured. It's absolute hell for kids who are just trying to have fun with their friends. I missed out on memories, the ability to be my own person without shame. I lost a lot of friends when I left because so many truly couldn't think for themselves without being told what to believe in. Thinking about all the years I spent here makes me sad and resentful. No i'm not a Christian as you can tell, but that shouldn't make my opinion any less more valid. Funny you guys turned off your google reviews btw, very funny indeed. You can run but you can't hide from the trail of angry atheist students you leave in your wake. I hope I can move on, I hope I can forgive my parents for sending me here and ignoring my complaints. I hope every student here can one day fully embrace who they're meant to be, not who they're told to be.

They have given great thought to making sure that the parents are involved in every single assignment and preparing for tests. If your child drops a grade level you are notified via the school application, email and phone call. Parents, gone are the days of asking your children do you have homework? What assignments are due? Because you can now look that up. We have a white boards in the hallway with the assignments and when they're due and how much grade is weighted on each one. There are no more surprises of I didn't know this was due. All of the teachers are insightful and dedicated. Some are a bit dry, some are a little stiff but overall if they weren't good at their job they wouldn't be there. I get the feeling that the Higley School district does not embrace a teacher's tenure over their quality. All of the teachers offer tutoring you just have to work around their schedule. The school has many clubs and sports for young people to get involved in. The homecoming football game that I attended the kids were well-behaved respectful and had a wonderful time. I think it's a real privilege to live in the school district. Good Luck

I feel so blessed that my children get to learn and grow with such a caring environment.

There was no sense of responsibility and I could not handle it (it wasn't the first time)and just pulled her out of the school as I figured management would do nothing. I had issues prior to that with updates from the teacher and asked for a classroom change but was denied. Some teachers are extremely good and really cares and unfortunately we were not blessed with one. Kids in other classes gets lots of picture updates but I did. We did not love our teacher. They won't share a curriculum. You just pay the fees and assume your kid is learning a ton. They would simply tell we have 13 kids to care and they were busy. My kid hardly got 2 photos a month and the other teacher sends 25 photos a week for a child who comes half a day. So it is really the teacher! BIG NO

My daughter needed tutoring, so we called Tutoring Club. I initially spoke with a gentleman named…read moreRyan, who quoted us a total of $300 to $400 a month for 3-4 hours a week. When we got there, Daniel greeted us, and we did both the assessment and planning appointments ( he had us waiting 10 minutes past our appointment time for the planning appointment) with him. We later found out that it wasn't $300-$400 a month for 4 hours a week, but rather $360 a month for 12 months, covering 96 hours, and they run a hard credit check. This means she would be getting 6 months of tutoring for basically $360 bi-weekly, which felt misleading. I'd rather go to a tutoring place that doesn't do a hard credit check and is upfront with their prices. Additionally, Daniel was rude when I tried to discuss my daughter's needs; he would cut me off and talk about himself not even addressing or acknowledging what I just mentioned about my daughter.
