Do not allow your kids to got to this school! I attended this school for 17 years and Parkview did not prepare me at all for the college experience. The only reason I am able to handle college is because my mom was a teacher and taught me how to study. Parkview does not care to actually prepare kids for college. I went back and talked with the head english teacher about going over other writing styles besides MLA because my first paper in college had to be in a style we never even covered and the teacher got mad at me for suggesting she mention the differences in the styles. ALL of the good teacher are gone. If you want your kid to be a druggie sports player send them there if not send them else where. If your kid is artistic DO NOT SEND YOUR KID HERE! They have no respect for the arts here. The art teacher is not very qualified and many of the students are better artist. Also the art teacher picks favorites and will allow those students into the AP art classes when they have no business getting past the Art 2 class. If your kid is seriously into the arts look into a different school that will allow you to send your kid to that school and NOCCA and your kid will be sussessful.
Our child has been attending Parkview Baptist for over 5 years now and we can definitely say we are pleased with the school so far. The teachers and staff are friendly, knowledgable, and always accessible. I consider it the best private school in Baton Rouge for my money!
I go to this school and I hate it here. I'm in the 8th grade and the guys are very immature. Many bullies are the immature people and they love to make fun of me for no reasons. The school says they would try doing something about the bullying but they aren't doing anything about it. If you just think about bringing your kid here, just don't because your son/daughter will not like it. Also the teachers don't have much dicipline when someone does something wrong. Terrible school.
Our son has been at Parkview for 3 years and abolutely loves it there. The curriculum is challenging, they're always learning new things. The staff is nice and always helpful, when needed. The tuition is a bit pricey, but it's well worth it!!!
Our son and daughter attended Parkview prior to moving. I was shocked and dissapointed to find that they were way behind academically from the public school system.
the principal and staff disrespected me and totally cursed me out after i asked for a return of money and lied about information on the diploma. they are just intrested in money and phony people
My daughter has been attending Parkview for 4 years. We love it there and she enjoys it there as well. She is learning a lot at Parkview. The only 2 complaints I have is the lack of dicipline and the price. By lack of dicipline..an example iswhen we went to the LASM there were public school students and private school students in attendence. The public school students were exceptionally well behaved and quiet, while the private school students well...they were all talking and not listening to the teachers. The teachers need to dicipline the kids more in my opinion. I would love the price to come down as well-it is almost unaffordable and they just keep raising the prices!!!!
Parkview is a substandard school with phony Christians who worship money and status. They care little for actual people and student achievement is well below that of public schools.
Excellent school. High quality learning environment, and improving with new management at the top. Excellent extracurriculars, including sports.
Parkiview is a great school.My child has learned so much.As for discipline that should be taught at home starting at a young age.School is for education.The teachers my child had were wonderful.
