My son has been attending HBCA for 6 years. The staff is wonderful!! They are very caring and show it to the students. I wouldn't want my son at any other school. I'm thankful for a safe place for my child, where Jesus is taught.

Perhaps there is a reason this teacher is no longer at the school and it has nothing to do with the quality of the school. I hope people who read the previous statement read between the lines.

I taught at this school for a while and it has gone down dramatically. It's a shame.

DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILD TO THIS SCHOOL!!!! The staff at this school does not care about the children, only when they will receive their next tuition payment. They don't take action on serious matters. the whole staff are friends with eachother and I have caught them even talking bad about parents and children. NOT WORTH THE MONEY, POOR TEACHER QUALITY. I have removed my kids from this school a year ago I they are much happier at their new school, and so am I.

Holmesburg Baptist Christian Academy has been a blessing to me and my family. The teaching staff, support staff and Administration go beyond what is required of them professionally. They care about the whole child and the whole family. My two children are growing, academically and spiritually, in ways that public school and other private schools cannot measure up too. H.B.C.A. is every parents' dream.

I had two children attend Holmesburg Baptist Christian Academy. After they graduated they often commented how well H.B.C.A. prepared them for high school. They are now in college and I credit H.B.C.A with their continued success. H.B.C.A. is a secret that needs to be told!

HBCA provides a high quality education with strong Christian values . The students and teachers are like family and the faculty genuinely cares for each student . The small class size environment fosters a close relationship between student and teachers.

This school is absoluteely wonderful! Staff are very involved and caring (genuinely). Some invite their children and their families to their home for summer BBQs and their weddings! They celebrate your child's success in national winnings of art contests by joining the ceremony on their days off! There share their private home and cell numbers to thee parents:-) The parents are awesome too and everyone I have met has been more than happy w/ the cirriculum and w/ the CHristianity they are surrounded by. It's not a question of 'Can we afford this for the children?' It's more like 'How can we/I not?' Consider HBCA:-) It would be the best move you made.

This is a great small school. The teacher's are great and are open minded to children with learning disablities. They do provide services but are limited.
