We selected CH&BS for our child because they met and exceeded our expectations on academics, extracurricular activities, faculty communication, and most important of all, the spiritual emphasis they put into every class and activity. Our child has grown spiritually mature and has learned to STUDY the Bible. We couldn't ask for more.
This spring the school sponsored a mission trip to Panama. What a fantastic experience. The lessons learned will last a lifetime.
CH&BS is a great school offering excellent christian principles. Our family is truly blessed to be part of such a wonderful school in our community!
We have been at CH&BS for ten years. It has been a great experience. Administration is very easy to talk with, teachers are invested in the kids, and parents are welcomed to get involved in all school activities. Great value for our dollar.
The day I called for information, I asked the principal what my child would get in return for the tuition- she jumped down my throat, out of control! Now, I know why the defensive attitude: what we get in return, academically, is not up to par, and very warped "Christianity" i.e. not Christian at all!
I agree with some of the most recent reviews in many ways. For a christian school, when walking through the halls I have noticed bullying type behavior among the students in middle school. It is a family atmosphere but only if you are part of that family and inner circle. Teachers do not respond to emails in a timely manner. If you voice a concern, you (and your child) suffers. Typical private school parental involvement - some are fantastic, incredible people, but most are snooty and far from christian. Academically there is not much difference, other than music and bible. The administration and office staff are outstanding, unfortunately (some) of the teachers and (most) of the parents are simply not.
If you are wanting to see how the children and families interact on campus? Would you like to see how teachers really act with the students outside the classroom? Come to MDB Varsity Football Game September 30th and from 4p-7p the parents and teachers will serve a wonderful Fried Chicken Supper in the Dining Hall (very reasonably priced meal), you will not go away hungry.... eat in or take out You can talk to students, and families....come watch football, see coaches in action, enjoy
If you're looking for a school that: 1. Supports achievement, 2. Has strong partnerships among parents, teachers and students, 3. Challenges it's students, 4. And has high quality and committed teachers, I would highly recommend Christian Home & Bible School. My involvment with the school as a parent spans the past 15 years and overall I have been very happy; not only with the Christian education my children have received, but with the character building traits & skills they heard everyday in Bible and chapel. My kids always wanted to go to school and were very involved in extracurricular activities.
This school was not at all what I had expected for my child. Being a christian school, I hoped for a good quality of life for my kid. Instead, there was a lot of bullying... which made me question, if these kids were really christian at all. I was surprised by how little consideration the basketball coaches had for their players. It was really disheartening. Academics left a lot to be desired. I would not recommend this school to anyone.
I agree with the last reviewer. Very very true, if your not a member of the church, you are treated totally different, the teachers and administration dont give you the time of day. The teachers I believe are just very average or below, that dont communicate with you, even if you email them, they will not respond. You have to go to the top, even then no results. There is thief going on too..my son got his ipod stolen last year, no one came clean. So, its about the same as public school.But, the price of 8000.00 year tuition.
