This was an amazing school and I wish I had graduated from here instead of my grad school. The kids are so sweet, and the teachers are too. How very, it is a small school so everyone knows everything

It's a pretty decent school. I loved going here. I wish the campus was bigger so we could have more things to do. I also wish we had more activities and clubs, but they're doing the most with what they can do so I applaud them for that. Also three days of school a week. Nothing can beat that. I wish they're math teachers were better because I failed most of their tests because I don't understand any of it. Good thing I'm not majoring in engineering or stuff like that. But it's a good school. Worth a tour for sure.

The Teachers are very personable and want you to learn, and ultimately set you up for success. The school being so small is a positive aswell because you get to know all your peers very well and it results in an overwhelmingly positive experience

The first bad review from a student is farther from the truth . This school fully prepared my kids for college and really grounded then with integrity and responsibility. They are also very strong in their faith and love for God because of the bibilical teaching their. As a parent I would highly rec...
