I'm a parent who had both my daughters attend Evangel Christian School from Kindergarten to High School. They've both graduated from Evangel High - my youngest in 2009. It was a sacrifice for us but it was well worth it! The teachers and administrative staff were caring and my daughters had some great relationships with teachers over the years. I could go to work in peace knowing that they were in a caring, supportive, safe environment where they knew them by face and name. It was important to me that the girls go to a school that cared about academic excellence as well as the spiritual component of their lives. My girls developed their artisitc gifts at Evangel also. Moreover, I wanted a school that reinforced my Christian values at home and at church and I got it. Seriously, this is faith based learning at it's best!
They have shown alot of love and compassion to my son and he has been there since kindergarten through 12th grade
The teachers really care about each student and are also the type of role model I like my child seeing. Great standards.
This is an EXCELLENT school. The teachers are all very helpful. The curriculum has its serious points and its fun times. Its a very well rounded place to be and very safe.
What has kept me working at Evangel for the last 24 years is that I know that God has a calling upon my life to minister at this school. This is where I have also grown not only in my profession but also spiritually as well as emotionally. God has proven his faithfulness over and over again through out these past 24 years. Both of my children attended Evangel and also attended private high school. They both graduated from college without having to take out a single loan. My son, completed his BA in 2001 and my daughter completed her Associates degree from a local Junior college in 2003. Another aspect that I appreciate about working at Evangel is that not only has Evangel been a safe haven for our children, but it s also a safe place for the staff as well. It s wonderful working in a place where everyone cares for one another, especially the administrators who are also sensitive to your personal needs. Our last staff development work day 4/20, exhibit this. We were partnered to assist each other to retouch the bulletin boards and classrooms. Even though it was a long day,(8-5 PM), we all worked tirelessly to get the task done without complaining. I m unsure if this is possible elsewhere.
I have been a teacher at Evangel Christian School since 1995. The reason I first interviewed at Evangel is still the reason I continue to work here today. When I first came to interview here I discovered a school very much like the christian HS I grew up in. At Evangel I experience a family enviroment where experienced staff help new teachers learn to teach, where parents and teachers can meet together to work out a learning plan for their child/student. Evangel helped me to fulfill my dream of becoming just like my favorite HS teacher. I, too, was a basketball coach and math/science teacher. My fellow teachers & the administration has helped me to grow in my profession as well as my walk with God. It has truly been a blessing to watch students who I taught in 4th grade grow up and mature and go on to college.
As a parent of Evangel Christian School students I want to say that ECS has been a blessing for our family. Our children range from elementary, middle to high school. Evangel has given a great amount of support to our children both academically and spiritually. The staff has lived out the biblical principals of loving your neighbor as yourself. They genuinely care about the students and their progress. As parents, it was important for our children not only to attend a school that believes in Christian values but upholds them. Thank you Evangel!!!
I cannot express how much of a blessing that this school has been to my children. teachers are caring and are always willing to spend the time to help the children.. Where do you see teachers taking no lunch or even staying after school to take the time to make sure that the student understands and is able to continue in their subject. When you arrive to evangel christian school you are greeted with such love. the office staff is there and willing to help you in any area possible. My children are in Middle School and High School and cannot see themselves at any other school but Evangel.. The Forensics class has been a blessing where they have been able to attend different clases at John Jay College. I beleive Evangel is a blessing to so many and continues to bless our children.
As a parent of a student at Evangel Christian School i want to say that I could not have chosen a better school for my children the curriculm is meeting their academic needs, they are also able to participate in sports where they are playing against other private schools. The administration is so involved with parents and are always willing to help you. You see that they care. My children have made great friends throughout the years here. It's even hard for me to get them home early. They have afterschool H.W. Club where they are able to stay and work and also get the help needed from teachers. If you are in need of a good school Evangel Christian School is the school...Visit the school for yourself and you will see that this schhol has alot to offer. Let'sI pray that God will continue to bless Evangel and their staff.
Evangel Christian School has been a blessing to my family. My daughter has been attending Evangel since PreK3 and this year she will graduate from high school she has learned so much academically as well as spiritully. My son has been attending Evangel since PreK3 and is now in middle school. If your looking for an inexpensive school with a loving staff and qualified teachers this is the school for you.
If you have a gifted or above average child, this is not the right school. Curriculum is not challenging. Not enough stimulation for A students. High teacher turnover - no consistency in teaching and learning. To all of you Christians out there...pls pray for this school - that it will live up to its mission statement.
I am currently attending evangel, as a matter of fact i am in computer class writing this report. But other than that, its a pretty good school.
I'm an ex-evangel student but the time i spent there was awesome! you really feel a part of this big family (and it was hard for me to leave) the education is at it's highest peak- all you need is enough determination to push through. The sports is very good- basketball, volleyball, track & field and a good selection of afterschool sports clubs. The electives feature a wide range of funn!! lol..I loved it here! go eagless!
I cannot say enough of the leadership in this school, they take the time to meet with you and actually care for your child. Mrs. Marko & Mrs. Perez are bothe loving and caring people who are willing to take and go the extra mile for the children as well as their staff and always for the parents. Evangel has truly turned around for the best. I love evangel
I use to attend Evangel Christian School and I loved it there. The school definetly has that family feeling and the teachers really care about and want to see you succeed in life. It has great academics program. Also they have a great sports team. Lets go Eagles!
Evangel Christian School has been great for our son. We believe ECS aims for high educational and Christian standards. The teachers and staff genuinely care about the students and their progress. As parents, it was important for our son to attend a school that believes in Christian values. We found this in Evangel Christian School. We have seen our son grow in his knowledge and understanding of the Bible. ECS has not only blessed our son, but we have been blessed as well. As a family, we have accepted Christ as our Savior and currently attend Evangel Church.
I am a teacher at Evangel and I am so blessed to have been given the chance to work in such a loving, caring environment. The presence of the Lord is felt in each and every classroom. Being able to pray with students and share the Lord with them is totally awesome. The curriculum incorporates the Word of God along with stringent standards to meet the requirements for the Regent's Exams. I am thrilled and blessed to be so privileged to be on staff at Evangel. Evangel is a true beacon of light and hope in the city.
Im a middle school graduate and i loved this school and thank God everyday that i went to such a close home envirmental school. I learned so much from this school and so many memories that i can never forget !
I am a graduate of Evangel and I am so happy that God gave me the privilege of being able to attend Evangel. At Evangel I learned to use the gifts and talents that God has given to me for His glory. The teachers at Evangel love the Lord and are highly dedicated to the students. It provided a safe and Godly environment that not only helped me academeically but spritually also. I feel that Evangel helped to prepare me for life. What a blessing you are Evangel. Keep up the great work.
