Our daughter dances to her own tune in life and had struggled in large public and private schools. Middle school can be brutal, but even when her peers weren't accommodating, our daughter always received friendship and acceptance from the staff at RH. IEP reviews at other schools had ranged from average to downright combative, but at RH we were relieved to feel so supported. Even though RH has experienced new leadership in the last two years, the resolve and tone at the school remained stable. Our daughter is excited to start remote learning for her high school years, a choice she was able to make in part due to the confidence instilled in her from her teachers and the special education staff at Rolling Hills.

My girls go to Montessori school and I just love that platform for learning. Especially it fits perfectly for my 5 yrs kindergartner. Structure and positive discipline help her be excited about her studies and she is very bright. This school offers music, science and many items that are considered at my girls Montessori as after school activities with additional payment. It's pretty well known in the community as high graded and well ranked. I did not like the carpets everywhere. How sanitary can that be and the uniforms plus it's run like a regular school and maybe it's just my own experience. I decided to wait and see who my kids are to see if this will be a suitable school for them. They have a lottery system and you will only know close starting of school year if your kid is accepted. Not something I want to play with and take a chance on. Just me.

We…read morecurrently have all our kids enrolled, and we love the education they are getting, both academically and spiritually. With many Christian schools, it seems that faith is put on top of curriculum, like frosting on a cake. I've seen at CVCS that faith is baked into the cake itself. For example, every parent/teacher conference is opened in prayer, each child is prayed over when considering classroom placement, and Christianity permeates every aspect of academics and social activities. If you live in the Treasure Valley and want a solid education for your kids, as well as having them surrounded by positive role models, I strongly recommend Cole Valley!

This school is so close knit and everyone knows everyone. If you're looking for a school to pay attention to everyone including small details, I highly recommend! If you're looking for them to be just another child, I suggest you take them to another school. They go above and beyond to make sure all kids are safe by having people out front to direct traffic, allow/stop kiddos from walking in dangerous places and crosswalk guards down the road. That all being said, it's a great school. I specifically stayed close to keep my daughter in this school.

I couldn't have asked for a better teacher to help my son with his introduction to music. He is really loving music, and can not wait for the next session to start. He has made so much progress, it was beyond my expectations of what I imaged that class would have his imagination want to learn from a music stand point. Encore is located in a perfect spot off HWY 55, with its own parking lot. The cost was reasonably priced for 8 weeks of music. I really liked they offered morning and afternoon classes for this age in two locations. I also found the class ration 6:1 was the perfect size for kids this age. The building is large, lots of seating for parents, bathrooms are stocked and always clean. I would recommend this to all my friends, family. Thank you to Encore for making this place for my little one to love music at a young age!

I am genuinely heartbroken that I have to write a review like this, but families deserve to know…read moreour experience. We were excited about The Ambrose School. During our tour, they expressed how much they loved our child, how well she would fit, and even told us there was an open spot. All we needed to do was complete the application. We did exactly that. The application asked detailed questions about our specific Christian faith and the church we attend. Within a week of submitting it, we received a cold, impersonal email informing us that our application was being terminated and our fee refunded. No explanation. No conversation. No willingness to clarify anything. Just a closed door. When I reached out and respectfully asked for the reason behind their sudden reversal, we received complete silence. Not even the courtesy of a reply. Based on the timing and the nature of the questions they focused on, it is hard to see this as anything other than religious discrimination. What makes this even more painful is that our child previously attended a nearly identical "Classical Christian" school in another state--with the same curriculum, same values, same books, same structure--and thrived as a straight-A student. She was everything they say they want in a student. Explaining to her why Ambrose had suddenly changed their mind was absolutely heartbreaking. Their academics appear strong, and I am sure many students receive an excellent education. But our experience revealed something far more concerning: a lack of transparency, compassion, and Christlike behavior. The way we were treated was dismissive, exclusionary, and completely out of line with the values they claim to uphold. Families deserve honesty and respect. Sadly, we experienced neither.

Now we are settled into Idaho and at Heroes and I don't think our kids will let us ever leave (not that I want to). As an Acton Academy, Heroes encourages every child to think and behave like a hero, not a victim, while embarking on a self-growth journey. They encourage every family and child to be proactive, begin with the end in mind, to hold themselves and others accountable and to high standards. It's a place where children discover their own passions, gifts and begin to lead meaningful and purposeful lives. I have seen incredible growth in all 4 of our children over the last 2 years while attending Heroes Academy. They have developed real life skills such as how to have a meaningful conversation with an adult; how to fail and get back up again; how to speak in front of a large crowd; how to begin finding a passion or start a small business, all without our help. If you're worried that your child isn't actually learning much by completing so many assignments, doing homework each day, taking tests and getting 'good' grades in the assembly line of a traditional public education system, then Heroes Academy might be great for your family. I couldn't be happier with Heroes Academy and all that they have done for our entire family. You see, being a family at Heroes has encouraged my husband and I to continue on our own self-growth journey and to push ourselves each day, while our kids grow right alongside of us.

I have two other students who have attended since Kindergarten. We choose to shift schools because, not only is Cole Valley academically rigorous, but they also care about the whole person and focus on preparing them for a future where they deeply think about how to impact their world for Christ. The elementary campus integrates creativity and fun into their courses by having themed units that incorporate all subjects into creative learning from which my boys really benefited. My students always felt loved and encouraged as they were pushed to rise to the high expectations that the teachers set. The teachers would give extra attention to help my sons overcome any hindrance to their potential. I appreciated the extra care they gave to communicate with me and involve me in those solutions. They set a solid foundation for my boys' faith in their elementary years. At the secondary level, students have an advisory mentor assigned to them to walk through 7th - 12th grades to examine life and faith. My boys have deeply appreciated these relationships. My graduate had the vice principal as his mentor who he says really taught him how to love and serve others. Their friendships with their advisors are meaningful and help our students think deeply about their life decisions at this critical season in their lives. The guidance counselors are excellent at keeping students on track for their individual college goals. The teachers offer traditional and creatives methods to learn the material. The student experience is full of opportunities for healthy social fun at games and the school spirit is contagious. The opportunities for social justice through short term mission trips with peers or community service locally are abundant for a small school. My students' friendships are faithful and meaningful and I trust them in their social time...a gift to a parent who might otherwise worry about their peer groups. Overall, I couldn't be happier with my student's experience at Cole Valley Christian Schools. I would recommend CVCS to anyone who asked.
