School Reviews

We've had a wonderful experience at Christ the King. My daughter has grown tremendously—academically, socially, and spiritually—since enrolling. The school fosters a strong sense of community, with clear values and a warm, structured environment that supports every child. Having worked in public schools during and after COVID, I saw firsthand how hard it's been for many to regain their footing. Christ the King offered the consistency, care, and community I hoped for in my own child's education. The teachers and staff are excellent—attentive, communicative, and genuinely invested in the students. My daughter has loved forming friendships within her class and across grade levels through the school's buddy program. Aftercare and after-school clubs have also exceeded our expectations. They're well-run, enriching, and thoughtfully designed—something we've truly appreciated as working parents.
