My two kids go to Rock City Prep, and I love the academic program. The teachers are extremely informative and keep me informed of my kids day-to-day activities. The teachers make sure all the kids are learning and understand their assignments.

My daughter has attended Central Park Christian for the last three years and I'm well pleased. The teachers and support staff are excellent. They truly lift up the name of Jesus and teach with a passion. NO child is left behind at Central Park Christian.

My son attended Central Park Christian last year and I was very satisfied with academic program and the way his teacher kept in touch with me to let me know if my son was having problems in area before it was too late. VERY SATISFIED!!!
