Jefferson Christian Academy

We were so blessed to find this school! Our children started in the 2k and 3k classes and are now in 1st and 2nd grade with honors. They continually test at a level of almost 2 grades higher. We had tried other schools in the area and some down right scared us. We had no reservations when our daughter was born that she would go to the loving care of the ladies in the nursery. She is now 2 and a very happy well adjusted toddler. If safety, academics and a dedicated caring staff is important to you then JCA is the answer! We hope our children will be able to graduate from JCA as we know they will have all the tools necessary to go out in this big world of ours!

My child has been at JCA for two years. My child has grown academically as well as spiritually. I am very pleased with the Administration and teaching staff. The staff has always been kind and willing to help with whatever has been needed for my child. I highly recommend JCA to families that are looking for a solid Christian Education.

JCA leadership refuses to discipline bad kids. Middle and high school students are disrespectful. Science lab is used as a junk room. Students see cartoons in physics class and not given any tests. This is NOT a school to prepare your child for college.

We have 3 children at JCA. We have found it to be an excellent place for learning and developing our children not only in the classroom, but also in their Christian walk. The class sizes are very good and the preschool is just that, a preschool, not a daycare. The Leadership over the past few years has dramatically improved and the facilities are on their way as well. Overall JCA is an wonderful place and we hope to keep our kids there for years to come.

My child has been at JCA for the last four years and I have been overall. The tuition does go up every year and with new fees added this year I am not sure if we will be able to attend this next fall. The class sizes are great and the teachers so far have been very eager to help when it was needed. The drawback to JCA would have to be the appearance of the school itself. It look run down and air never works and bathrooms are horrible. I also think the level of learning is somewhat behind what is being taught in public school and I came to that line of thinking only by talking to others who have children in public school. My son loves it there and will be saddened if we are unable to attend this next year.

My children are finishing their second year at JCA. We love the school. The teachers have been great and very responsive to any concerns. I would respectfully disagree with the previous poster about the student not being prepared after they graduate. On the JCA website they list that last year's Senior class earned over $850,000 in college scholarships. They only graduated around 20 last year, so they must be doing something right.

Too political, Teachers play favorites. Students tend to not succeed after they graduate due to the lack of legitimate teaching as kid's get to 'play' in the classrooms and do what they want

JCA is an outstanding school. The stafff and teachers are dedicated to the education of each student. I highly recommend JCA for all grades of school.

We have been involved with JCA for many years now. While there were problems in the past, the change in Leadership, the wonderful addition of Teachers and the Christian focus has now made this School one that I would highly recommend to others.

I have been very pleased here. The teachers are loving, caring people who are allowed to let Jesus enter the classroom. We will be back next year!
