Maranatha is an incredibly supportive school. The deans and teachers take the time to support your child, they realize not all kids learn tin the same way and they provide the help and resources to make sure they feel supported and successful.

We absolutely love Maranatha. The faculty and the teachers are very Christ oriented and incorporate Christian values in majority of their classes. Teachers are attentive to the students in the classroom and are the role models we have been looking for to mentor our children and to help them grow in a high school environment.
