Thankful every day for Bracken. I wish the administration would have transparency about the board but still thankful for amazing teachers and staff. It's a very good and loving place.

Bracken, although it has its downsides, is a wonderful school. It is not the facilities, curriculum, academics, or athletics that make Bracken amazing. Rather, it is the people that make this school the way it is. The faculty and staff are all loving, caring, personal people, and the families involved at the school are some of the best people around. The love of Jesus Christ abounds through the people at Bracken Christian School.

I love the SALT partner program. This program encourages the older kids to mentor the younger ones. It starts with the 6th graders mentoring the K4. the 2 grades get together throughout the year and have prayer time and fun activities together. The 2 grades grow up together, praying for each other. They continue to get together as 7th graders and K5, then 8th and 1st graders...all the way to 12th grade and 5th grade. This program keeps the whole school a close knit family. I would love to see the kids have even more opportunities to spend time together (big kids with the little ones).

It is a family like environment. They are growing and always moving towards improvement. I am thankful God brought us to this...

Our family loves having the option at Bracken to place our child in a traditional, five-day-a-week program or to experience the hybrid campus/homeschool option of the STREAM Program. At this age and stage, our child is flourishing in the STREAM Program which allows us (as parents) to be intimately i...

Bracken Christian School has been a cornerstone of our family for many years. Our children attended BCS from their earliest days in Kindergarten, all the way up through their senior year. The education they received was second to none, and the school's commitment to helping students grow in their fa...
