The only good part in the school is the teachers who don't get a lot of recognition in the first place. It feels like the teachers are the only ones that have compassion and try to do things about the slow decline of this school. sadly the worst parts of this school is the administration have no regard for children safety because they lack responsibility to report incidents or take action against bullying when it needs to be reported. i would never send my kids here in the future because of how terrible it is. when i was suicidal i was told to go home and act like nothing happened so no i wouldn't recommend this place.

My experience at BCS was very traumatizing honestly I still vividly remember how poorly I was treated by students and faculties. Courses that I was given were fine but the community was very toxic and not welcoming. The community is tiny which means it's really toxic everyone knows everything which isn't the best case. School itself it isn't that challenging but it also means it'll be very hard to get into "good schools". Also the school does not offer any of AP classes but they say they offer online courses and I think you will have to pay extra fee. College admission process was very hard and you will have to email the person everyday to make sure you will get all the documents you need on time. I wouldn't recommend this school personally.

This school is closely knit and is like a big family, we all love each other and we care for everyone well being. Even though I may be graduating this year I will definitely come back to visit.

Not Christian at all. If you got the money, they will put you in school here. SOME kids here are on drugs or they were kicked out of public school. Staff is judgemental. They have their cliques, like staff's children or their children's friends can do no harm. Quality of education is just average. I...

My children have been at BCS for 7 years and I am thankful everyday. They are getting a high quality education and learning things that turn them into better people. They are getting a Christ centered education that also provides hands on opportunities to go out and serve in the community.

My husband and myself are both products of Bcs .....we both graduated from there :) We loved it so much, we decided to send our three children there, with our youngest now a senior there. Berks Christian continues to be a " family school", you become part of that family when you send your kids there...
