I'm partially biased because I had worked there for a few months, as well as some family, but I…read moretruly believe this is one of the best alternative/special needs schools in Western PA. The staff knows nearly every student on a first name basis regardless of whether they've had them as a student. Students go on plenty of trips, participate in plenty of fun and educational activities, and the NHS community doubles as both a school and a family. When the school was at risk for losing their original building due to insufficient funding for mold and asbestos damage, hundreds of people came together to ensure that their concerns were heard by the BVIU. And thanks to the efforts made by many, they will be able to return for the 26-27 school year! I think that's the best example of the familial bond of the NHS community. Go Bears!

Here's an example of a review you could write:…read more *1/5 Stars* I attended New Horizon Beaver County for my 12th grade year, and unfortunately, my experience was overwhelmingly negative. The main reason for this was the treatment I received from Mrs. Sprinker, one of the teachers. Mrs. Sprinker consistently yelled at me, belittled me, and gave me unrealistic expectations. She showed a complete lack of understanding and empathy for my special needs, despite my IEP. Her behavior created a toxic and stressful environment that made it impossible for me to learn and succeed. Furthermore, Mrs. Sprinker denied me basic human needs, such as using the bathroom, and gave me tasks to do even before the school day started. She showed a complete disregard for my well-being and autonomy. I would not recommend New Horizon Beaver County to anyone, especially students with special needs. The school's lack of support and accommodations, combined with Mrs. Sprinker's abusive behavior, make it a hostile and unsupportive environment. *Pros:* None *Cons:* - Abusive behavior from Mrs. Sprinker - Lack of support and accommodations for special needs students - Toxic and stressful environment - Disregard for student well-being and autonomy I hope this review helps others make an informed decision about New Horizon Beaver County. This was 15 years ago.

Pretty much all of the other 5-star reviews sum up my impression of Catherine and Cut and Sew…read moreStudio. I've taken the beginner Intro to Sewing course. - Great teacher - Catherine doesn't make you feel bad at all about messing up. She can move a class of 8-9 people along pretty well, while not rushing anyone, even when people are at different stages of the project. She gives so many helpful tips. I mean, who would know that the opening of a pillow should be on the less stretchy-side of the fabric? - Studio - Bright, organized, roomy and clean. In a location with decent parking. - Pricing - Very reasonable. I thought at first the price was decent, but now I know the quality of teaching and it's an even better deal. I'll be taking another class soon!

I have taken several classes at Cut & Sew. I started with minimal sewing knowledge, and my goal is…read moreto learn how to make and alter clothing. Catherine (the owner and instructor) is great! Her classes are reasonably priced, and the size is kept fairly small, so she is always available for one-on-one instruction. I started with her Intro to sewing, which is great if you have never used a machine, or if it has been a long time since you have used one. I stepped up through a couple of her beginner classes and onto more intermediate ones fairly quickly. A lot of her classes come with open studio time, which means that you can come in to the studio and work on any of your sewing projects, with her available for advice. Catherine also comes with a lot of industry knowledge, as she was a designer for some bigger brands, but her instruction is very grounded and easy to follow for a novice sewist. She is also young and fun, so it wont be your grandma teaching how to sew frumpy things. In her working with a pattern class, she helps you learn how to put together a piece and sew it from a pattern of your choice. If you have never worked with a pattern, they can be tricky, and also involve sewing techniques that you have never use. With her class, you can give all your questions to her, and you figure it out together. As far as technique goes, she also has multiple technique classes, that are shorter and quick to help you bone up on how to sew all the different types of zippers, seams, pockets, etc. I have learned a lot from her. I continue to take classes, but now I am much more confident working with patterns, trying new techniques, and altering my own clothes. I would recommend this to anyone that wants to learn how to sew or anyone that wants to refine their skills. She does kids' classes too!

An Amazing School and Truly Special Community…read more Cheswick Christian Academy is truly an exceptional school, and I cannot say enough wonderful things about it! What makes this school so special is that you are treated like a person, not a number. Unlike many large public schools where it can be easy to feel lost in the crowd, at CCA, everyone knows you, cares about you, and genuinely wants to see you succeed. The teachers are absolutely amazing. They don't just teach lessons, they take the time to know their students, understand them, encourage them, and support them. You can tell that they truly care about each child and their future. The relationships that students build with their teachers and classmates are something incredibly special. The entire school feels like a giant family. Everyone looks out for one another, and you know there are people you can rely on and count on when you need support. It creates an environment where students feel comfortable being themselves, asking questions, growing, and becoming the best version of themselves. And the education goes far beyond academics. CCA provides students with the opportunity to grow academically, personally, and spiritually. The Christian foundation and spiritual guidance are such an important part of the experience, helping students develop not only their minds but also their character and faith. If you're looking for a school where your child will be known, valued, encouraged, supported, and loved, CCA is truly something special. It is so much more than just a school, it is a community and a family. I would highly recommend Cheswick Christian Academy to any family looking for an outstanding education in a caring, supportive, Christ-centered environment!
