While I never went to West Side I went to school for four years with West Side students. They've become some of my best friends and favorite people to learn and play sports with. They're easy going, they love Jesus, and they're fantastic at music.

West Side is a special place. They have an incredibly strong family feel while also being very welcoming to new families. The school is true to their values, focusing on caring for the whole student, and not just focusing on their academic progress. I would recommend West Side to anybody.

I work part time here, and have found the community to be passionate about sustainability, a hands-on and diverse education for all ages, and Jesus' love for his children—I'm proud to be part of encouraging each of these in the next generations!

West Side Christian is truly a special place. It is filled with loving teachers, parents who care and a staff which goes above and beyond to aid in the transformation of our Children (God's followers). All this is done while providing an excellent education!
