Hamilton Christian presents itself to be christian focused and college prepatory but in reality it is neither. I was fairly popular and made good grades but the teachers were EVERYWHERE when it came to teaching. The school would have so much potential if they carefully chose the student athletes they recruit. I went into college so under prepared due to the focus on athletics (basketball). There has been a few scandals over the years with a few of the teachers hired... I recommend another choice of school if you are wanting education to come first.

The education given there is fantastic. I attend this school currently and in the past I did not know as much as I know now. I feel completely knowledgeable about most things and at the same time I've come closer to God with this Christian education and atmosphere. This school allowed me to express my confidence and wisdom as a young adult.

I first started at Hamilton in 7th grade, straight out of home school. I'd never been anywhere near a real school before, but everyone there was open and accepting. A few years went by and before I knew it, I was starting my Senior year. Students and teachers had come and gone, but the core values the school held stayed the same. As I prepare to enter the real world, I feel as though I am ready to take on pretty much anything, thanks to Hamilton.

My son was exposed to a Godly atmosphere where rules were in place, prayer was made, and he was challenged academically. It has a family atmosphere.

High School: Most of the students and staff are conniving and evil. If your child is not popular or athletic they will be verbally, emotionally, and physically abused ( by the students). Most of the administration will not be concerned about your child. Most teachers here are unable or unwilling to...

My wife and I have been very impressed with the reception my two children have gotten from the other students. The teachers really care about the kids and the administration are not strangers to you once you "sign" the dotted line. I would recommend this school to anyone that is looking for quality...
