What sets DCA apart is the strong sense of home and family--it's more than just a school. The staff is incredibly supportive and full of love, always there when we need them. We're so grateful to have found not only a great school but a true community. Desert Christian Academy gives you a sense of peace, and honestly, there's nothing negative we can say about it.

I would not suggest thing school. My child left this school recently, hardly anything Christian…read moreabout it. Most staff is very passive aggressive and your child can be let off the hook if you pay enough money. The teachers aren't great either and my child has hardly learned anything. They talk about kids behind their backs and try to get into their personal business. They want money for everything just for it to be spent on something irrelevant.

I am writing to express my deep frustration, disappointment, and concern regarding an incident that…read moreoccurred at school today involving my son, It has come to my attention that a student named G&&&& referred to another student, Ja$$$, as "leprechaun." found this amusing and giggled, which led to Ja$$$ threatening him to kill them, then several students approached saying that Jas$$ had a pocket knife and was going to kill him. Now my son fears for his life. My son was send to the office to write a report about the incident, gave it to the front desk lady, and I was still not informed about this horrible situation. What troubles me most is that I was not informed by the school about this incident. My son now feels unsafe and scared to attend school, and as a parent, I am extremely disappointed by the lack of communication regarding a matter that directly affects his well-being. I kindly request immediate attention to this matter. I would appreciate a prompt explanation of the situation, the steps being taken to ensure my son's safety, and how the school plans to improve communication with parents in the future. Thank you for your prompt attention to this serious concern. I look forward to your

Even Danny the parking lot crossing guard is pretty darn cool and helpful. Cons: Parking, parking, parking!!! Not enough, way too many parents not utilizing the bus or walking and too many "hang around" much to long and park where ever they feel like it.

She used to be the computer lab teacher, but then, she left when I was in fourth grade. The problem is the parking, but I know someday, this would be taken care of. Mr. Davis was the best principal anyone could ask for. And Mr. Preston too because he's really funny. Overall, I love this school. I miss all my friends, my teachers, and the good times we made.

I had to advocate for my son on multiple occasions, was never contacted about the outcome of the " investigation" And was told that they could do nothing since nobody heard it and they couldn't prove it on video. Absolutely unacceptable by a school district if you ask me. I was also told that it was not being looked into any further since this other student was no longer going to the same school as my son. I sure hope nobody else has to deal with this type of situation with the student since nobody in the school district seemed to care about avoiding the same situation in the future.
