My son attend this school , they claimed to work with children speech and delayed issue but of course they didn't. And on top of it they made us feel as we were the one in the wrong. Horrible school , we expected better of a christian enviroment. My son develop such a fear of school that even his speech grew worst. I would not subject a child to this school.
Outstanding academics and teachers are superior in Bible teaching. I only wish every child had the opportunity to attend. Student - teacher ratios are great and each child has a chance to excel and is encouraged to reach their fullest potential.
Our family had a mixed experience with this institution; there was a lack of excellence and passion in some of the classrooms, while others were a bit more on point with academics and spirituality. We lasted almost two years and pulled our kids out after much prayer and reflection. Overall there was a sense of spiritual compromise about the school that smacked of finance led decision making. There was an apparent lack of love for the children and out dated academia that left much to be desired. Thumbs down for THCA.
I have three students at the school and I love it. Excellent education staff and exceptional sports programs for girls
Principal do not meet with parents when problems arise with a teacher. Sports program needs to allow more students to get involved.
We love HCS (THCA). My son has been enrolled since 4k and is thriving. His final progress report for 1st grade showed he was reading on a fourth grade level and doing math at a 3.6 grade level. The area public schools cannot even come close. My mother-in-law is a Kindergarten teacher in Broward public school and she has commented repeatedly how far ahead my son is vs. public school. Just look at the list of universities our graduating seniors are going to...impressive to say the least.
This is the greatest school! They have captured a respect between the teachers and the student body that seems to be missing from schools today. The teachers exhibit a genuine concern for their students education.They have an open door policy to check homework assignments or contact the teacher online and encourage us parents to do so. I strongly recommend this school and its current administration to anyone wishing to see their student succeed.
I was really pleased with HCS as a whole. Last year was my daughter's first year attending and my biggest fear was her not being able to connect both on a educational level and a personal level coming from public shcool. Well much to my amazement she is doing just great in both areas and she is looking foward to her next school year. Thank you HCS for being in tune to what our kids need on both a educational and spiritual level. See you next year.
I have been involved with Hollywood Christian since day 1. My mother, Mrs. Wilkinson, and Mrs. Fine were the first two teachers for the school. With my mother supervising the kindergarden for 39 years, I got to know the inside part of the school. Is it perfect? No. Are all the students and falculty perfect? Probably about as perfect as the Wilkinson children were. Would I recomend this school? Yes, if you wish your child to grow up and learn responsability and be ready to handle thenselves in the real world. I have watched for years as students from public schools graduate from school and not have a clue as to what to do now. The teachers and staff at HCS want their students to succede after they graduate from school. This is very had to find, even in the private schools.
My daughters both started going to Hollywood Christian when they were 3 years old. My kids got off to an excellent start, learning at an excellerated level, learning discipline, and learning about God and the bible in fun and exciting ways. The elementary program is wonderful. The middle school program strives to prepare students for highschool and begins using the bible to challenge students in their daily lives to help them become young men and women of God. My oldest daughter is starting high school. Though there are not the same abundance of activities that public schools offer, there is art, choir, sports, foreign language, yearbook. The focus is preparing the student for college with honors and AP courses available. It has always been evident to other people that my kids had a respect level that many of their peers lacked. I credit a great part of that to her teachers.
