They have a really good science teacher but beyond him the teachers are just ok. But its a caring school and a good christian enviroment. and they have nice weekly chapel's. Def better than public schools.

Wlca is the best school in the world. My children have been attending this school for eight years. Some of the comments below do not truly reflect the character of the school, nor the vision of the founder. The school is not perfect; you will never find a perfect school. However, it's better than most. Your children will be surrounded by good influences. Principal Marchello is a wonderful, godly woman who leads our school with excellence. The school showcases a wide variety of teachers who are well equipped to teach your child the academics he or she needs in order to be successful. If you're looking for a great school, WLCA is the place for your child.

My son attends Word of Life Christian Academy. He was in public school here in Las Vegas and also another private school before we transferred him to WOLCA. This is his second year and he is in middle school. We have been very pleased with the quality of education and the smaller class sizes. A great majority of the teachers are highly qualified and they really care about the students education and well being as well as their Christian instruction. The principal is a dedicated, devoted and caring administrator. I recommend this school.

I have watched good teachers come and go from this school over the last several years. Why is this? Check their records! Most of the staff do not even have a degree and how can they post that they teach Excellence when they are not degreed? Why is there a high turn around in staff, why did they leave? You are constanly being asked to send more money for various things. Not a place for my child!!!!

This is my third attempt to post a review of the WLCA Preschool. As my past two postings have been deleted, I will attempt once more. My point is not to make anyone look or feel badly, I just want to be heard. In my six months of my daughter's attendance, my experience was not welcoming. I felt that the teachers were bothered by me. As I am a teacher and am able to identify and address classroom concerns, I was patronized by the teachers and the preschool director. WLCA may have a great K-12. People who I know and love send their kids there and are happy. My experience was only with the preschool. The teachers are unskilled, not good classroom managers and have a political agenda. If this posting is deleted, I am going to pay a visit to the preschool director personally.

This is my third attempt to post my review, the first two posts having been removed. My experience with WLCA resulted in my daughter regressing both academically and socially. I would not recommend this preschool to anyone who is interested in their child's educational, social or spiritual development. Teachers and staff are dishonest. K-12 is not included here, my experience is limited to the preschool.

Please realize you can't please everyone. Having said that. The school is excellent. They use the Abeka curriculum. This school has dramatically changed in the last 5 years from the time it first opened. My son is now a Kindergartner and is in his 3rd year attending. The principle leadership is the best I have ever seen. As private schools go this is one of the least expensive compared to others.

Reading the reviews doesn't really help decide if you should send your kid there because the reviews well are mainly written by the STAFF that works at wlca.They want the school to sound like the best school ever its NOT i went there you make friends with the whole school since its so SUPER small but what you learn is WAY behind what public school is learning. What they mainly teach is Bible thats ALL they care about and the church not even the school i mean their website is ONLY about the church only like 5 words for the school. Plus the school just WANTS your money i use to get invoices to give my parents so they could pay,the school is very greedy with money. I WOULDN'T send your kid here. Especially NOT for high school. the high school here is like being home schooled. its NOT great

reading the reviews doesnt help because most of the reviews are written by the staff to make the school sound amazing, but its not. The school just wants your money i went there last year and trust me they're super greedy with money. The high school there isnt even great. They dont have any electives for this school or sport teams its not a real high school you basically pay 500 dollars for your kids to be home schooled. All you learn is about the Bible its good and all but they have a Bible club at public school. I wouldn't send your kid here just dont send them to a real school.

You should only consider this school for pre-school or the first couple of years of elementary school. After that the school falls behind academically. The students that have transferred to public schools during Junior High or High School have discovered that they are behind academically. The only thing that is taught well is bible but there are bible clubs or religious education programs for that. I was very disappointed to find out that after paying tuition to that school for 8 school my child was not even on the same level as the public school children.
