I am a parent of 2 boys that went to BCS. It was the best decision that I have ever made for my boys. One was K-12, and the other K-10 grades. Mr. Myers is hands down God sent to BCS.

I am a parent and teacher at Burley Christian School. All the teachers and staff are amazing and care deeply about the students, not only about their learning, but about their character. Biblically based curriculum.

WAS a parent. Now a grandparent of 4 second gen attendees. Some of our teachers even attend students' private birthday parties. (Quite a time investment for a teacher). The student body has since over-doubled in size and offers teachers who are closely connected to the student. Class sizes are small and tuitions remain as low they were 30 years ago. An excellent private school!
