ECS has been the perfect fit for our daughters with their challenging academics taught with a Biblical worldview. They have both had numerous opportunities to get involved in sports, music, and extra-curricular clubs. Everyone is so welcoming, and the teachers and administration truly care about the individual need of each child. We love ECS!

We have a first and fourth grader at ECS. We love ECS. The teachers and staff do a great job teaming with the parents to ensure each child gets the best education possible. Academics at ECS are so strong. I appreciate the fact that at ECS, our children are taught thoroughly at school. As a parent we are only asked to spend time with our children at home reinforcing what has already been taught in the classroom. The extensiveness of the curriculum is so impressive. The children get all the fundamentals, do well on testing, but learn many extras as well such as Spanish, music, art, and physical education. ECS supplies a well rounded education. The biblical approach is such a blessing. Our children have developed a true depth in their Biblical knowledge and worldview. I see them draw on that knowledge as they process situations that come up in their lives. Christian character is being learned each time they step foot on the campus through the staff, teachers and their peers. ECS is filling our children with the academics, Christian character, and confidence we believe they will draw on throughout their lives. We love ECS.
