Des Moines Christian School

Pretty good school, some of the teachers are not the best, but that's from your point of view. The education is good, and it helps you be around good christian people.

My daughter graduated from DMCS and was fully prepared for a 4 year college. My son has attended DMCS since kindergarten and we have found a loving, nuturing and well prepared teaching staff. He has made quality friendships throughout his 12 years at DMCS. He is ready for college. Great teachers, great administration, growth environment.

The school is good for elementary age, but very inadequate for high school. They have one high school counselor that is very disorganized and do not offer many classes. I truly regret sending my daughter there. She is now struggling in college and was not prepared for the rigors of college. Truly a disappointment.

As an alumnus of this school I can now look back and see how this school did me a great disservice. I am now in college and really struggling to keep up with my peers who come from public schools throughout Iowa and the nation. The curriculum throughout high school is poor, particularly in science. Science taught from a Christian perspective is great, but did absolutely nothing to prepare me for college biology where I am expected to already know basic evolution theory. It may be great through elementary, but I would never send my child to this high school. I will be sending my child to public school, where they will have many more opportunities in education.

This school is the best school I have ever sent my children to. They have wonderful teachers, wonderful curriculum, the coaches are the best you could ask for, the music department is amazing! The list goes on, this school is all around the best thing you could do for your children.
