Administration is run by CAK rejects. Ninety percent of the teachers are other parents who are there for a tuition discount and don't know how to teach. The other 10% of the teachers are awesome and are the only thing holding this place together.

I would not recommend you send your child to this school. The teachers don’t care about your students and there is a lot of bullying.

My experience with Concord Christian school was not a very good one. The teacher wanted a $100 to tutor I thought tutoring was free to help students. I just Do notunderstand that. I started at St John Neumann Catholic School.They gave all the tutoring I needed no charge.This a great school
