Ontario Christian Elementary School

I love this school! My daughter is finishing 7th grade and is doing well academically and spiritually. She does have a lot of homework, but manages quite well. She also plays in the band and has done so since 5th grade. I don't understand how others can say this school is a waste of money...I have compared my daughter's homework to some of my public school friends and she is doing the same level work but she is excelling. She enjoys Chapel and building her relationship with Christ. The teachers care very much and her self-confidence has blossomed this year. She has never been bullied or harassed and has friends that are very sweet. It is nice to get to know so many parents and everyone has always been friendly to us.

It is perplexing to hear so many discouraging remarks about OCC. My daugher began OCC at three years of age. She is not getting ready to graduate from kindergarten. My daughter is extremely bright and verbalizes words far beyond her five years of age. She is reading and has a good understanding of Phonics. My daugther is also adding and substracting. I agree with OCC motto of building strong christian leaders. My daughter quotes many Bible verses. She enjoys chapel and cries when she is not able to attend church on Sunday's. OCC is enforcing the spiritual and moral values that we are teaching my daughter at home. I do empathize with the student who states that she is/was being bullied. I believe that type of behavior should not occuror be tolerated in any school. I hope that the leadersof the school are looking into that matter seriously. I also hope that you have parents you feel you can confide in. Please do not give up on this school.

Do not waste your money. Most people who send their children to OC, think they are getting their monies worth. Some actually know the education is lacking, but continue to waste their money.

Horrible education! Be a Christian example to your children, and save your money! Do not send your child to Ontario Christian!

What a great way to waste thousands of dollars. Almost like burning your money. This school is a waste of a learning experiece as you waste class time talking of nonsense, insufficient teaching, and useless homework. And you all know how their motto is growing "Christian" leaders. They do such a wonderful job of that as they let kids loose and do whatever they want such as bullying (big factor), fighting, harassment, cliches going on, you name it. Although, this is a "Christian" private school so you won't find drugs or gangs or weapons. But as a student, I see many disappointing flaws that it is not even funny. So if you looking for top sufficient ways to waste your precious money, then enroll your children into Ontario "Christian" Schools.

Great school. Wonderful staff and students. They really all love the Lord and the teachers are there because they really care and are filled with the spirit.

This school is a great school. I have no trouble getting ahold of the teachers if need be and they are very concerned about their students. The Christian outlook on teaching and discipline is awesome

My niece has been going to OCC since PreKindergarten. It has been a very, very expensive sacrifice for my sister and brother in Law, but well, well worth it. The atmosphere is distinctly Christian, they give them lots of homework, and the activities are adequate. I appreciate the wonderful foundation that OCC has laid for my niece, who is the love of my life. She will do very well, once she leaves OC, and she will...great school!! YOu have GOT to experience the Harvest Festival there; it is second to none!

This school is amazing. Compared to other schools that I have been involved in, this one is very organized, professional, and it's an overall excellent school. All the teachers are dedicated workers; they will do anything to help the student succeed. The middle school is awesome - high standards and great faculty. I would definitely recommend this school.

This school's standards of education are at the level of the lowest public schools, except it costs you a lot of money and wasted time for your children. The children never get any homework or anything to do after school. They have Computers once a week, and Art once every two weeks. According to what my children learned at their previous school, this school is very behind in all subjects.
