The City school is based around and has the foundation to be a school that truly embodies the lifestyle that Christ wants for us but it falls a bit short. Barely any of the students are true followers of Christ and most of them mock Christianity. All grades have a Bible class but it gives no real insight into who Jesus was and how we as struggling Christians might try to live as close to the way he did. I went to the city school after being in cyber school for 3 years and it was quite an adjustment and not what I remembered school to be like. There is also a lot of instability in personnel.
