I liked being able to study in a christian school. It is great to be able to pray out loud in class. All the students in all the grades are very close and care about each other. the parents all support us in out studies and mission to learn about God and his plans for us.

Equality if you a board member or a family with money or your family works there then you are held to a lesser standard. If you are a family on a voucher then you are treated less or held to a higher standard. Some kids can get away with things but others can not. There is such a double standard. But would I take my kids out of the school no because I have seen worse things at a public school.

They have great hearts and intentions. They often are overworked and don't have the proper tools for their job. Some also did not have proper schooling to be in their position.

Do not go to this school! They paint a pretty picture to get you through the door, then once you are in and you see the TRUTH they will hold your children “hostage” and you won’t be able to pull them out unless you pay the full year tuition. Pay attention to the agreement you have to sign when you e...

Hi, my son graduated from Portage Christian School and I have a daughter that will be attending the school going into her Freshman year. She has attended the school since she was in the 2nd grade. The school has changed a lot since my children started there. I have seen many teachers come and go. Th...
