I have gone here before, the parents and staff may say that this school is great and Christian, but it honestly isn t a great place. You should think of this place as more of an academic rehab for your child. If you raise your child here, believe me, they will go out into the world blind, that is if you don t prepare them for the real world/HS/College. This place offers lots of help in the classroom, but some teachers will offer more help to certain people, not on purpose, but they will. I had a classmate who asked too many questions and the teacher would waste the rest of the class s time explaining even the question itself to that person(no names). Another HUGE problem is the way the kids think of their classmates. Some of the students that come from public schooling will not be able to get along easily with the other PRIVATE schooled children. I feel it s important to teach your own child about manners and tell them that they will not always be around people like them, even if it is a private school they re attending. Most of these kids are truly insensitive to new company, there was a kid with special needs and the rest of the class was mean to him and didn t realize why he didn t understand or remeber some things, and the teachers said nothing to the class but He is different . They will constantly cover up things that need to be said and don t appreciate someone who is trying to make the place a better place, instead they will punish anyone who says the TRUTH about another student. These teachers, at least in older grades, will constantly extend deadlines and if an assignment is missing, the student will most likely not get a late grade for it. Basically they will not prepare your kid for high school. But god forbid you don t capitalize God or say OH MY GOD out loud or pop another students bag of chips(they ll cry cuz they re spoiled ). I m done y all lol...
