School Reviews
5 4/27/2020
The teacher and student ratio is by far the best in the area. My kids excel in this school and my daughter who is in kindergarten is already doing work from 1st grader level. The faculties and teachers care dearly for their students. Highly recommend this school to anyone who wants their kids to excel in school/life.
5 5/30/2015
My 2 children are very happy there. The Science and Math teacher for the 7/8th grades is excellent. The 4th grade teacher is wonderful. They offer good sports programs for the students.
Endorse Monterey Bay Christian School. Endorsements should be a few sentences in length. Please include any comments on:
- Quality of academic programs, teachers, and facilities
- Availability of music, art, sports and other extracurricular activities
- Academic or athletic awards
