School Reviews

I love that when I drop my children off at school, that I feel as if I have no worries for them. I do not have to worry that they will be bullied by other children or staff. I do not worry about the influences they will have while at school. I also know that the morals and care they receive at home are also being given to them while here. The quality of education is by far more than I could ask for. My children don't have time to get bored, they are happy and are excelling beyond their grade level. We chose this school originally because of the Christian atmosphere. 8th graders are caring and help with the 1st graders etc. Children here are allowed to act their age and learn how to live and love in God's word. I couldn't be happier. This is truly the best investment for my children's future and I wouldn't have it any other way.
