| 5 5 stars!! My family and I have a special place in our hearts for CFA. Not only is their academic program superb, but the support they offered me as a single mother is a true example of Christian love. My daughter was cared for, nurtured and educated by the best Christian Educators. As a result, I have seen a marked improvement in my daughter. I highly recommend CFA as not only a great school for your children but the best place to work as well. Thank you, Mrs Estevill and Mrs Cruz for making these past two years at CFA the best years in our lives. God Bless CFA!!! - Posted by Parent - Victoria Lai |
| 5 Christ Fellowship is clean, well-managed, well-staffed, friendly, and professional; with high academic standards and a safe campus with multiple levels of security. Children are taught kindness and responsibility, and teachers are compassionate but firm. Probably the best elementary school within a 500-mile radius. - Posted by Parent - Derek JF |
| 5 My daughter spent 7 wonderful years at this school and I have to say that we had the best experience ever! Christ Fellowship is a Christian school with excellent and caring teachers. My daughter was nurtured by each and every teacher, Principals and Vice Principal. She was taught discipline, kindness and love. Her schoolwork was tough but fair - if she showed any struggle our teachers would notify us right away! School events were so well organized and fun - Parents were also the best, often times volunteering their own time to fundraising and helping out any way the could.Both my husband and I worked over 30 miles away from Christ Fellowship and for years we refused to move closer to our jobs as we knew that this kind of experience rarely happens.Our only complaint? ......That the school did not go to 12th grade! As we would have never left!Don`t think twice about enrolling- do it! - Posted by Parent - Lisa McPherson |
