Christ the King Roman Catholic

One of our children graduated from CTK in 2011. We still have a child in the school. Overall we are very impressed by the quality of education and academics and the sense of community. For us it was very important that the school reinforces the values we teach at home. I particularly liked the specials art, music and spanish. We would highly recommend this school.

Our first year has been great. There is a strong sense of community,our children love their teachers and it is a caring environment. Christ the King teaches kindness and respect in addition to bringing in excellent curriculum and a wide variety of enrichment courses. The families were very welcoming. With so many school choices in the area, we made the right choice for our family.

Two years ago we transferred our daughter from the public school system to Christ the King. We were concerned about established cliques; she was instead embraced and integrated quickly. The parents, students and staff have welcomed our daughter and us into the community. The teachers are excellent and students test well above grade average. The leadership at the school is excellent. We feel fortunate that our daughter is receiving an amazing education in such a great community of students, parents and staff.

This school was the worst and always will be. I've been in this school for all my life and it was fun until the old principal left. Now its straight up terrible. Only the middle school teachers: SS teacher and Science teachers actually care for the students. Otherwise they don't care if you flunk. The P.E teacher thinks this is some kind of Military Boot Camp, but guess what IT ISN'T. The P.E teacher should think before he says something. Lots of parents complain to him, but of course he doesn't care. Thank God I'm leaving this year. I wish I left last year though so I can get away from here. This was my parents biggest mistake, but they don't see it because us students don't complain about it. Also the new principal doesn't punish the right students. Although my favorite year there was in 5th grade. Best time of my life otherwise I would've moved schools a long time ago.

Our family has been at CK for two years, and we love it. The teachers are wonderful, the children feel like they are a part of a tight community, and the new administration has provided a strong leadership. We have found the community of teachers, staff, religious leaders, parents, and students to be very warm with one another, and they work hard with one another to keep the educational level challenging.

Sad to see things have not changed at CK, I am a former student that had to transfer there in 6th grade and was only subjected to cliques, teasing and generally being outcast. I would hope things would have changed, but it seems that it's still occuring.

We have been very happy with our school. We have 2 girls that attend this year and they both absolutely love it. Contrary to other reviews, I have witnessed a wonderful and caring environment between students of all grade levels. There is a new principal and some new teachers as well and we could not be happier. I strongly recommend this school!

CK is full of well meaning families and dedicated teachers however the small, insular environment can be difficult. There seems to be a struggle between church and school leadership and the result is policy change without much warning or explanation, and seemingly little thought as to the effect it may have on CK families. Special events are often scheduled during the school day which is difficult for working parents. The fundraising is agressive due to low student enrollment. If you're a family where money is no problem then it's fine - but if you struggle to pay the (rising) tuition, like us, the fundraising became exhausting. The "incentives" offered for fundraising end up emphasizing the financial inequality between children. We are committed to a tradtional Catholic education but CK didn't have the stablility that we are seeking. We are switching to another area Catholic school.

Having sent our children to CK for the past five years we wholeheartedly recommend this school to anyone who would like to provide their children an excellent education. Three negative reviews out of 300+ families that attend annually should not surprise the educated. We will greatly miss CK as we move to the next phase in our life. Thank you CK for the educational foundation you have provided our boys.
