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.
