The school campus is moderate size for a Private Christian School and accommodates well to its increasing gain in students and staff. I would love to see a little more involvement in the arts and more sophisticated studies.

I genuinely love Glenwood and its environment. The teachers, students, and other staff members make Glenwood feel like a home and not just a school. Cajun chicken pasta days are my personal favorite because I look forward to lunch. I do not have many bad experiences at Glenwood at all, but if I had to list one it would be my physical education class in grades 7-9. We didn't really do much, but then again that's me really trying to find a negative example.

My child attended until late last year, but we have since moved to another city and my child attends another Christian school. Glenwood has over priced tuition for what they "offer". They don't even tutor in the lower school or have programs within the school for younger children. Extracurricular pr...
