We are very pleased with this school. My student is in the high school. He has struggled with academics, yet he is now earning good grades. The principal and teachers have been very supportive and have emphasized Christian values. I believe my student is getting a first-rate education in a safe environment.

91st Psalm has lost focus on their priorities. We sent our children to this school because of our desire for them to be in a Christian enviroment, challenged, encouraged and be exposed to others that share their beliefs in Christ. Instead, they were discouraged and exposed to the reallity of 'Its not what you know but who you know'. The staff including the principle showed favoritism and was bias towards staff kids and church members. The school also lacks culture and the staff is in need of some diversity/interpersonal communication training. I will not send our children back to this school and continue to pray that God opens their mind and hearts to be TRUE examples of how we should live in CHRIST

My child attended in preschool and it was horrible . She was left outside unattended once after school, I did take her out immediately! I also think the teachers there need to have more experience in dealing with children because clearly they lack that!

I have three children who graduated from 91st Psalm Christian School. They have excelled in every venture they have undertaken since graduation including college, work experiences and beginning their own families. They received a solid education from 91st Psalm Christian School.

91st Psalm Christian School is a solid educational environment that focuses on the whole child. Education, Health, Family, Spiritual and Social growth are encouraged. The teachers are great and will give each child individualized attention. The school puts God first, thus a successful environment.

I have 4 children and 2 have already graduated from this school after attending since kindergarten. My oldest child was awarded a full tuition scholarship to Grand Canyon University for their Scholars 100 program. She graduated from Grand Canyon and is now teaching Honors English for an Arizona High School. I currently have 2 children still at this school in 9th grade and 6th grade. This is not the 'perfect' school as there is no such thing, but we love it and it has served our family well. The teachers do an outstanding job from Pre-K all the way through high school. There is not really an 'arts' program to speak of but the strong academics will prepare your student for their futures.

Excellent educational opportunity. Significant amount of homework. Very family oriented. Christian influence is basic to everything and is Bible based. Not much in the way of sports should that be your interest.

My youngest child has attended this school since Kindergarten. My older children attended other parochial schools. 91st Psalm has the highest standard of education along with the moral discipline that enhances and supports the parents vision. The academic standards are high and each student is held responsible for his/her behavior.

I beleive my children received a good education and attended school in a very supportive environment. They had a competive edge in college. They also graduated knowing the Word of God and how to apply it in their lives.

Community ratings and reviews do not represent the views of GreatSchools nor does GreatSchools check their accuracy or verify the reviewers' identities. Use your discretion when evaluating these reviews.

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Unlike public schools, private schools are not always required to report data about their schools or not required to take the same tests as public schools. Many private schools take different standardized tests; however, that information is often made available only to families of enrolled students. We strive to acquire additional private school data whenever available.
