School Reviews
5 9/10/2017
All three of my children graduated from Harlan Christian School. We were very pleased with the quality education, the caring staff, and the smaller classes which allowed for more one on one time with the teachers. Two of my children went on to receive bachelors degrees and one is a Tech Sgt in the USAF. Graduates from there have become doctors, teachers, pharmacists and many other professions.
