Overall, I have had a very good experience at JCS. The teachers are there for you, and you know that if you needed to you could go to them for help. This school also has a good community, and puts a lot of focus on growing relationships between the students. I do believe that there are things the school could improve, but overall it is a pretty good school.

Overall, I have been going to Johnstown Christian School since pre-school. As I've gotten older, I've noticed more that is wrong with the school and have brought it up with administration. It hasn't always been met, but the school does have very fun and good activities that help the school grow closer as a community. I would like to see the school food change. Now, since we have adopted the new law about being able to serve free food to students, the quality has went down.

Hands down the best and safest school in the area. The level of parent and faculty interaction is second to none and the academics are extremely advanced. If you want a great school without the drama, violence and general negatives associated with public schools, this is the place to be.

JCS is an ACSI Accredited school. They have partnered with another local public school to provide more opportunities for its students. Our kids attend JCS and love it.
