I will say with tuition food service. At first the food service was horrendous. My child would come home and be starving all the time. Choices were almost all Asian. They finally got a great chef and the kids were coming home and raving. Now it seems they for whatever reason have changed or released the chef or company that was handling it. To say this least I am very disappointed in whoever made that decision. All week my child has come home complaining.

Academically it is much harder than public school but with small class size and loving and dedicated teachers, she is learning how to study and learn. Their drama department is amazing and we are delighted that she has had the privilege of learning under Ms. Cookie, who has directed musical and drama groups and inspires every child to excellence. Each child chooses an instrument and gets to play in the band very quickly. The loving spirit of the school is nurturing in every way and parents are sent notes when their child has been especially helpful and kind. It is worth every penny of the tuition- a marvelous school!

Dr. Cosby is first and foremost a teacher. A very good and knowledgable teacher. He really does try to give understanding of what is in the Bible. Not his own interpretations but the word "For the Bible says" (he says that a lot) "Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves." Matthew 7:15 NIV Those of you that appreciate studying the word will love Service as well as Bible study (wednesday). The several wonderful choirs (Hanq is the minister of music), programs for youth, elderly, families, singles, young adults etc. if you can't make it watch online, download podcasts, buy tapes at the bookstore. There are so many ways to get yourself secured in the word of God. There are many things to help you not only in your spiritual journey but also the realities of life. I have taken theology in school for many years and this church just helps to increase my understanding. That's what people of faith should strive for...not to know all that is divine but to have knowledge of what is true about God and what is corruption of the Word. Know Him for yourself not what someone else has told you to be the truth. This church offers that guidance to get you there.

I have been attending Wheeler snce my sons were children, but had joined another church. I feel the…read moreLord led me back to Wheeler. This is where the uncompromising word of God is preached. This is where Jesus is lifted up always. Even though the church has a large membership and growing, there are 4 services, so the effort has been made for all to attend. There is bible study, many programs to help with everyday life. The ushers and greeters are friendly. I would recommend this church if you want to grow in the knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ. AND, if you want to learn the bible,, the truth of God's word. I pray the Lord continues to bless this wonderful body of Christians, led by William Lawson, Pastor emeritus and Dr. Cosby, the Pastor of Wheeler Avenue Baptist Church. Pastor Cosby and others have strived to make this a warm and friendly church environment and a great help to the community, also.

As any parent, I was nervous dropping my little one off at school. Will he like it? Will he make…read morefriends? Will the teachers be informative? Will they be kind? But after my son has had amazing teachers for both Pre-K4 and Kindergarten, I can without a doubt say that we've had nothing but great experiences with this school. The teachers are in constant communication with the parents and my son has learned so much! They really do work with each child individually to make sure each child succeeds. I also love that they have the little kids team up with the bigger kids for chapel. My son's "chapel buddy" (a 4th grader) is so sweet with him! We've also seen him at the little league baseball field and he always gives my son a hug (which makes my son BEAM). This school truly shows God's love by how the staff and teachers treat their students and parents.

Tyler started there in 2018, and when Adeline joined in 2021--at just three months old--we already knew she would be in the best hands. What makes The Kensington School truly exceptional is that it's family-owned, and you can feel that sense of warmth, stability, and personal investment in everything they do. The consistent community of long-term students and educators has meant the world to us. Every classroom feels like an extension of home, filled with educators who are dedicated, nurturing, and truly passionate about what they do. The Montessori-based curriculum has helped both our children grow into curious, confident, and independent learners. We've watched them flourish academically, socially, and emotionally thanks to the thoughtful structure and caring environment. We can't recommend The Kensington School highly enough. It has been one of the best decisions we've made for our family.

We're excited for her next steps equipped with all she's learned in her first school, but also so nostalgic about leaving a place that has truly embraced her and our family. The Kensington School's staff is all exceptional, from the front desk to the teachers, to the directors who office at the front of the school so know all the happenings of the day. The school keeps parents engaged in updates and events, and fosters an environment of curiosity and independence. For most parents, choosing where your child spends impressionable years of their life can be a daunting task, but The Kensington School has been nothing but amazing for our child's learning journey. The directors of the school are so invested in our daughter's future, that they are always keen to share learnings, advice and thoughtful recommendations when asked. We highly recommend The Kensington School!
