We have a lot of foreign exchange students, and it's pretty great. Most have good English already, and out native speakers help those who need it. There isn't really peer pressure, except to play certain iPhone games (Flappy Bird, I'm looking at you). We're pretty accepting, but there are things that aren't tolerated. I don't know that anyone has a divergent sexual orientation, but I don't know how it would be handled if we did.

The academics are okay. It's easy to get all A's if you work for them, but not everyone does. The main subjects- science, math, English and social studies- are good, but extra classes- foreign language, arts, etc- are a little lacking. (I haven't had art at this school, so I don't know much of it, but I had foreign language. We use Rosetta Stone, which works for some, but not others.)

Sports is "the main thing." Home games, especially basketball and volleyball, tend to have a lot of support. There aren't many sports, it depends on how many students are willing to participate in each sport.

They also allow the rehab participants to WORK directly with the kids and do not disclose this to parents as well. I brought up my concerns and they we...

I have 2 sons ages 6 and 8. I am a very picky and involved parent who wouldn't enroll my sons if the school isn't performing to high expectations. I am highly pleased with the quality of the school. The academics are based on a curriculum that is a step above public schools. (My 8 year old attended...

Wonderful Christ centered program. Schools like this need our support. The children are worth it. It is expensive to send children to private schools but this one is a good investment in my daughter.
