The secretary is always rude. The principle plays favorites and teachers don t teach. We pay over 10,000$ a year for tuition and my child is always freezing. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!! The academic dean won t help with any college stuff either. Keep your kids at the school they are at, don t come and regret it like a lot of people did

I highly recommend Bright Beginnings Early Childhood Center at the Christian Academy of Greater St. Louis to any parent seeking a loving, safe, nurturing environment for their child. The teachers and administrators love our 18-month old son as though he were their own, and it's wonderful to see how excited he is to go to preschool each morning. Activities are developmentally appropriate for his age, with plenty of space for free play. We love CA!
I went to this School for two years and even graduated from this school. The favoritism showed by the principal and other staff is mind blowing. Certain kids would get set home or have to stay in the office for being out of uniform, while others got away with it since they went to the school longer. I was set home for changing my pants , after I bled through . Right as I was explaining while I was not in uniform to my principal, another student stopped by to talk to her and he was not in uniform as well . Even after it being pointed out by other kids , she said nothing . The academic side of CA was horrible. There are no elective classes, most grades are combined due to low enrollment rates , and they don t even have a nurse. There was a couple classes that I didn t even do one assignment in and still passed with a 98. One of the teachers gets drunk with the students and another doesn t even get paid to work there because they can t afford to pay her . Some teachers that work there don t even have a degree in education. They say they are a Christian atmosphere but that is completely far from true. The whole staff is on here trying to boost their rating by leaving high ratings , acting like you don t run the place. Every year , they are on the board of closing down but somehow manage to find kids to enroll. This year they started taking infants. Did they also mention that a preschool teacher LOST a kid , and that kid was later found walking down a busy road not far from the school? DO NOT LET THIS SCHOOL TAKE YOUR MONEY FOR A HORRIBLE EDUCATION FOR YOUR CHILDREN. Your kids deserve so much better .
An amazing Christian school. Fantastic teachers, staff and administration The school continues to excel academically allowing all educational needs to be met. From core classes to advanced and college classes. The personalized attention that each student receives is a unique benefit CA offers.
Christian Academy is a perfect example of what faith based curriculum looks like. The teachers, staff, board of directors, and volunteers all are leading members in the Christian Curch of Christ community, and it shows 8n their affection for the school. The schools mission to prepare each student to live a life of value and meaning to God, society, amd self, shines through in their interaction with the students.
My son has been going here for two years, he's now going to be a junior in HS. My Daughter took some college level classes here her Senior year. We love the family atmosphere and knowing that teachers and students really care for each other. Stack a great education on top of that, nothing could be better! If you are looking for a school that is accepting of anyone and want a great education with a christian background and loving attitude bring your children here!!!!
I am very grateful for this school. One of my daughters graduated from Christian Academy and I think it helped her become the fine christian woman, wife and mother that she is today! The faculty and staff were always there to help with her studies and also provide a solid christian influence. This is a great school that I would recommend to anyone seeking a good education, with christian values as well. Thank you CA!
I have two children that attended the Christian Academy of Greater St. Louis from preschool through 12th grade. They were surrounded by loving teachers and coaches that helped them along the way. They were both strong academically and went on to finish their degrees at the university level. I appreciate the time and energy of the teachers and staff in helping my husband and I raise our kids in a Christ-like environment.
My son is in elementary school there, and it is the most loving environment! He loves his teachers and his friends so much. Small classes with great quality curriculum. It is worth every penny!
Both of my children attended CA from K-12 grade. They have gone on and graduated with honors from college. Our oldest daughter has also received her Masters degree, and has established herself in her career field in Texas. Our second child is in the third year of her Doctoral degree in Nashville. She recently was invited to make a presentation of research she has conducted while in graduate school to a National convention of OT's. I believe strongly that the level of success our daughters have attained is heavily influenced by the great foundation they received while at CA. Although the school is not perfect, it provided all that our daughters needed in terms of faith-based, strong academics. They were encouraged daily to be positive contributors to our world. The academics were strong and they were able to participate in team sports every season, and were part of groups such as the chorus and theater, where they developed strong and long-lasting relationships and developed skills best taught in team/troupe situations. If a student wants to be involved in any of the extra-curricular activities, the opportunities are available to all students.
In order to be fully transparent, I want to say that I work at this school. However, I would not leave my children in a school setting that I did not feel was absolutely the best environment for them. I would not sacrifice their education for loyalty to my employer. I had the choice to send them anywhere I wanted. And I can say confidently, that CA was the right choice for our family. They are a product of the great experiences they had while students at CA. And I will be forever grateful for the love, support, guidance, and education that they received there.
