I didn't know the best place to park, since this was my first visit since they moved to this campus. Disclaimer: my sister-in-law used to teach history at this school, while my brother coached volleyball and may have taught a Bible class. But they haven't been with this school since before I moved to Athens in 2014. But back when they used to work for this school, I got to meet some of the faculty and staff members, so I know some of them. This school used to "float around" and make their home in various church buildings before they moved to this location (a piece of ranch land). So they have really grown up since I have seen them! Currently, they have 60-70ish students from 7th-12th grades. Their "band" is a worship-leading band for their chapel services, and I'd love to sit in on a chapel service sometime! I like that it seems they welcome students of various denominations (the Christian School I attended was run by predominantly members of the Church Of Christ, which meant that our chapel services were accapella, but they welcomed students of other denominations). They also wear some sharp uniforms, the more formal version of which reminds me of what they wore in the "Harry Potter" movies, but most days of the week they wear more casual uniforms, as some current students (from the House of Gryffendor", Lol!) told me. I was also excited to learn that they had a cooking class, that was all year long (not just 1 semester), where they also learned how to grill food on backyard grills. Their library also has a small "coffee shop" with it, where the students can brew their own coffee while they study (that was the impression I got). There is also a small swimming pool right behind the Administration Building, which would be good for back-to-school or end-of-year picnic parties, or maybe even use it for a shallow-water aerobics class. During the summer, they also have a "Popsicle Summer Camp", full of different elective camp sessions for kids ages 5-13. If I had kids in those ages, I would definitely encourage them to go to a camp session or two. And if I had kids between 7th-12th grades, I would definitely encourage them to come to this school!

This is one of my favorite venues that we play at. The owners Camille and Kelly are so awesome…read more Their barbecue is some of the best I've had. This place would be so perfect for a family reunion or a high school reunion or a wedding really fancy pants event. The sound is great if you're a musician looking for a great stage to play on, you've found it.

Wow! This newly-renovated & reopened event venue is just amazing! When I first moved to Athens, I…read moreknow I saw the closed-down version of the place at a distance. It always intrigued me. But I was thrilled to know that they reopened it for multi-purpose events. I first came during the soft opening during the Fiddlers' Reunion weekend & saw a live concert happening. I also came for the "Art On The Bricks" event. It's neat that they can move the stage, since for the soft opening the stage was on the right brick wall (with the audience portable fold-out chairs situated so that the left & right were further apart than the front & back), & for "Art On The Bricks" the stage was on the back wall (with the windows & view of the town square parking lot behind it). For the art show, there was more space to look at tables of displayed artwork, munch on finger foods (catered by Railway Cafe, next door), sip on drinks (wine, water, or tea), & you could mingle around or sit down (upstairs in the balcony or at some standing-friendly downstairs tables). The restrooms are also nice, & very well-maintained, with plenty of multiple stalls. The upstairs balcony is really neat. It's a great place to sit & eat at small tables (or move them together for bigger groups), or you can sit at a bar-like table overlooking the balcony if you have a smaller group. Overlooking the balcony was an incredible view! I'm staying posted on future events held here, because I definitely want to keep coming back!
