I have overall enjoyed my experience at Western Michigan Christian. I have loved playing sports, especially since our programs have a good history. The people here are very kind and loving except there is a lot of school drama not from just students but facility as well. The food is also in very small portions and not very appealing sometimes but also expensive.

I really like WMC. I went to a public school through middle school, so switching to a religious private school was a great change of pace. I find that people that involve themselves in the school and go to all outside events like the school a lot more than those who only go to classes. WMC cycles through teachers sort of a lot, but the teachers that come back every year are the best teachers I've ever had.

This school has been a great high school, I just think that it could have been a little better. During my time there has been a number of new teachers that have come and gone with just makes it a little harder because of the new teachers.
