I attended this school for six years, and while there were some positives, my overall experience…read morewas far from ideal. The positives first: there were a handful of teachers who genuinely cared about their students and went above and beyond to provide a meaningful education. Their classes were engaging, and in those rare rooms, you felt like your effort mattered. Unfortunately, they were the exception rather than the rule. The main issues: the environment was rigid and stifling, with a greater focus on enforcing a narrow interpretation of faith than on nurturing students as individuals. As a Christian myself, I expected a Christ-centered education rooted in grace, empathy, and truth. Instead, I often found myself pressured into assignments where I had to argue against my own beliefs in order to receive a good grade. If you do not belong to the Reformed denomination, be prepared to compromise your convictions and align with their doctrine just to succeed academically. I was even marked down on assignments for raising honest questions or making comments that didn't align closely enough with their views. On top of this, students struggling with mental health were rarely met with understanding. Instead of empathy or real support, they were often patronized and treated like children. Speaking up about personal struggles typically resulted in Bible verses being handed down without compassion or meaningful help. While Scripture is powerful, when it's used as a substitute for genuine care, it feels more like a weapon than a source of comfort. If you are considering this school, think carefully about the kind of environment you need. If you thrive in a strict, reformed framework, it may be a fit. But if you value empathy, critical thinking, and an atmosphere of authentic Christian love, this is NOT the right place for you. I can say without a shadow of a doubt that my time at this school was the worst time in my life. Even with (some) amazing teachers that I had, my overall experience was not at all good. From being treated like a child whenever I made a slight mistake instead of being met with forgiveness to the "hollier than thou" mindset of a lot of the teachers, I wouldn't recommend this school to anyone.

Moving here and being…read morethe one in our school district, my child can bike/walk to school conveniently and with children around our neighborhood. I can say that we have a positive experience with my child's teacher and she really do paid attention to each and everyone of her students. She responds to every questions and concerns that I had with my child and the lessons she had, and that is a big plus (communication wise) between a parent and the teacher. My child enjoyed this school (coming from an unorganized, poorly ran school system in AZ).

Office staff not helpful. Joanne Valencia - is the first contact in the office. My son forgot his…read morejacket, first rainy day. He asked me to bring it to the office, but he doesn't have his phone so no way I could get ahold of him. I come in and she tells me to just put it on the table with his name. The sign above the table says 'staff is not responsible for the items- and they will not call the student to let them know it's there.' I ask her to call for him because he doesn't know I brought it- she tells me he won't hear it because he's in the cafeteria, but calls anyways. Another mom comes in with a laptop- she just tells her a name and asks to make sure she gets it. Joanne calls out for this student and immediately the student comes for the laptop. (Didn't tell the mom to place it on the table with a sticky note like she told me). I didn't leave because I wanted to make sure my son got his jacket. I waited 30 minutes. Finally she called a second time and he came up immediately to get it. Had I not sat and waited I don't believe she would have helped at all. He had to be at recess for a full 30 minutes without a jacket. - and as a mom I could never do that to another kid. I find her extremely rude and unhelpful and not a good fit for the very first person point of contact in the office at the school. Had I come in for a doc appt or something they would have had him come to the office immediately. I know there are systems in place to get ahold of the kids and she just chose not to help and wasted 30+ minutes of my day.
