I am at a loss at how parents can so blindly follow Parkway and its "mission". Having friends in the education field (teachers, counselors and even an administrator) has shown me that Parkway and its staff have no clue how to provide a quality education to its students. They hide behind their private school status to justify all their rules, and look down upon those who question or challenge their way of thinking. And what is up with just about every event or activity being a fundraiser? Isn't that what tuition is for? Excuse me for being so negative, but I am tired of all these reviews that sing praises for a school that wouldn't even come close to competing with most public schools. Open your eyes parents and start asking questions.... you may be disappointed with the answers you get.
I went here for a year and I agree with the comment about this being a "clicky " school. At the time I was a baby new Christian and felt like I was a "bad kid" because I came from a public school. The staff gets involved with your personal life a bit to much. I was threated by the assistant principal via phone call, to get kicked out because I was living with my dad and they came to the conclusion that I was living in an "unhealthy non-Christian" environment and I have do move out in 2 weeks or I was going to get terminated from the school. I cant say my whole experience was horrible but they do make up their own rules.
We have had our children at Parkway since 2006. We have seen continued improvement in the years since we have started. The teachers and administration really care with all of their hearts. We have never had an issue that hasn't been resolved by going to the teacher first. They do their best to support and help each child. The teachers pray with us at conferences, pray with our kids during the day and our their hearts and souls into these children. No school is perfect but we have found that our children are learning, the classrooms are structured, the teachers expect respect, the staff genuinely care and the presence of God is felt. There are plenty of opportunities to get involved...or not. We take one year at a time but so far Parkway has been a blessing for our family.
My son started at Parkway as a fifth grader and is now in his freshman year of high school.I am impressed with the support I get as a parent from the teachers and administration. I am watching my son develop as he learns to use his God given talents to influence others. The academics are strong. Honors classes are offered as early as 9th grade. I feel that most of my son's teachers know his strengths and weaknesses and challenge him to reach beyond to accomplish more then he thought he could. I am amazed at all the opportunity to be involved at Parkway and am surprised that more parents do not take advantage and volunteer. I would recommend Parkway Christian School to any parent who is serious about a strong biblical foundation, challenging academics and a caring environment for their children.
