Old Suwanee Christian School

This used to be a really decent Christian school, but now it seems as if nobody really cares. The students make racist comments and the teachers and principle dont do anything about it, and the teachers are very immature. One teacher talked bad about a student's parent in front of the student and this teacher has had a bad reputation among the students with saying things he/she shouldn't say. I would have recommended this school to everyone about 10-15 years ago when Mr. Moore was over everything not the secondary advisor and teachers. I really hope this school gets it act together because it is losing more and more of its most valuable students each year.

I had the privilege of attending OSCS for 7 years. My husband and I both graduated from there. I love the school! Our children are now students at OSCS - 2nd generation!! Just like any school, it is not perfect, but they do keep Christ the center of every activity. I feel that I have a support system for what I am teaching at home. The negative comments that have been said about OSCS by former parents/students are shameful. Obviously, a rebellious teenager is not going to like the rules, but they are set to teach discipline and commitment - something that public schools and a lot of parents are failing to do! I love OSCS!! Keep up the great work!!

Our desire is to see our students equipped with the knowledge and skills they need to become effective servants of God. Contrary to an earlier review, the teachers at OSCS are very qualified and are certified by GAPSAC. Currently more than half of the secondary teachers have masters degrees and all of them have bachelors degrees and from 3 to 15 years of experience. The administration also places a high priority on teachers receiving continuing education every year. As a faculty, we are continually striving to improve our program. For example, this year AP History was offered. The secondary offers a wide variety of sports, fine arts, and other activities - choir, band, speech, cross country, volleyball, basketball, baseball, soccer, yearbook, computers, art club, nursing home ministry, student council, etc. All elementary students have art, music, P.E., and computers, and upper elementary have band, cross country, and basketball. Students who excel in our program will excel in their future endeavors as well.

This school is quite a treasure. My child has excelled here and scores very high in her standardized testing. The staff is very qualified and the very best. I highly recommend OSCS to any parent looking for a great school K4-12. .

My kids went to this school K4 to 12th grade and loved it. The were well prepared for college and were very successful. The teachers are real Christians and love the students. I hope I can send my grandchildren to school there.

The teachers at this school were a hindrance on my education. I felt behind when I went to college. Some of the teachers are not even qualified to teach the subjects they are assigned to. Favoritism is shown towards members of that church and everyone else is judged by their appearance (They discipline people based on a bunch of absurd rules. i.e.: dress code). Don't be deceived, this is one reason why their attendance has been gradually dropping. It socially hindered me and they preach a life of bigotry and proselytizing. This hypocrisy has actually weakened my relationship with God! I credit myself for getting into a good college. The lower level curriculum is decent, but the high school level barely keeps up to par with the standards set by the state of Georgia (No AP courses offered). Save your money, the public school district in Buford has national acclaim.

I have taught in several schools around the country. This school is by far the best run, high quality, high standards, etc., that any one could find. It is God honoring, God pleasing, and God blessed. I praise the Lord every day for Old Suwanee Christian School.

I love OSCS its the best school ever!!!! I've gone there my entire life and I am in 9th grade. I love being taught the Bible every day, it is great. I also like the small classes, this way you get more attention from your teachers than in classes filled with30+kids. If you are interested in sending your child to a private Christian school, I highly recommend OSCS!-P.S. you should really check out Old Suwanees Independent Baptist churchtoo!

This is my sixth year going to this school and I really enjoy it. I have never once heard or heard of a teacher curse at a student! All the teachers truly care about their students. This school seems like a comfort zone where I can grow in the Lord and be taught everything from a christian perspetive,and how to apply it out in the world. Because we have smaller classes, teachers can easily answer all of our questions and help us understand. The new building is wonderful, also!!!! It's a professional,Godly, and caring school!

I am a graduate of Old Suwanee Christian School, and very proud of it. The teachers are great, and so is the curriculum. Students learn how to face the future through a Biblical perspective. Whoever posted the April 8, 2008 review on this website is not telling the truth about this wonderful ministry. The teachers love their students, and no actions such as described this 'parent' never take place (if they did, this teacher would no longer be employed). I just wanted to set the record straight about the school. If you are looking for a great Bible teaching and believing school to send your children to, I strongly recommend Old Suwanee Christian School.
