This school challenges all students to become better Christian adults. Classes are challenging and students are in a safe environment to learn more about God's world. I am a former student who sees this school as one of the best in the valley in preparing kids for their role in the world. If you want your children to learn in a safe Christian setting, this is the place.
From an insider's point of view, I'd rather attend ANY public school. The staff is rude, the teachers are subpar, and the school spends money on it's athletics rather than desks, lockers, or up-to-date books. Almost every single desk I sat in from 6-12th grade was over 50 years old. The rules are insane, even for a Christian school. Detention is not sitting quietly in a room, but unpaid physical labor, PLUS a $10 fee! The principal herself will not let you take a class if she doesn't feel that it's appropriate for you. One of our teachers handed out lesson sheets and told us to figure it out ourselves. And not only once, she did this for 4 years of the class. The community refuses to branch out to anyone not born and bred in Churchill. Few classes to choose from and even fewer extra-curricular activities. Do your kids a favor and send them to Manhattan public.
Our two children have been at MCS for two and a half years. I cannot give a higher recommendation for Christian Education and academic excellence. The administration and teaching staff are committed to creating an environment where children feel valued and loved. From the start, we felt very welcomed into the greater community of families and parents.
Manhattan Christian school believes in developing and nurturing students both academically and spiritually. As a student at MCS, I was actively involved in the many athletic and extra-curricular activities. The education I received more than adequately prepared me for college. The positive Christian teachers at MCS are dedicated to their students and care about their well-being both in and out of the classroom.
I have been to this school and the atmosphere is outstanding. Everybody was so friendly right when I walked in the door. The administration was more than helpful in assisting myself in a tour if this fine school. My overall visit to this school was a great experience.
We have 6 children who have attended or are attending Manhattan Christian. The faculty and staff are very caring Christian people. Our children who are in college and above college found that they were well prepared for college and even were able to go to higher level classes due to the education they had received at MCS. Involvement of parents is very high and all events are attended quite well by all. Even grandparents and others who have no children in school support this school fully. God has blessed our school greatly for which we are very thankful. Come check out our school if you wish your children to have a Christ-centered education.
