Bob Jones Elementary School

The minute I walked into BJE I was impressed. They have their stuff together! After my daughter attended another private school, I was shocked by BJE. Simply put, they know what they are doing. Their tuition is fantastic! Their teachers are hit and miss, so to speak. Some teachers are older and set in their ways, while others are fresh and very fun. Their music program is fantastic and a steal. Bob Jones is great at everything they do and usually come out on top of every competition they enter (at any grade level). Overall, I love Bob Jones Elementary, and cannot say enough good things about it!

My son has attended Bob Jones Elementary School for the past 3 years. The teachers have been patient, caring and knowledgeable. The parent/teacher relationship is excellent. We are offered numerous ways to communicate with the teachers and principal to monitor and encourage his progress. Much emphasis is placed on organizational and obedience skills being the keys to future success. I have had the privilege of knowing many Bob Jones graduates (adults), both personally and professionally and continue to be impressed with their knowledge, self-confidence and love of the Lord. We are blessed to have our only child in Bob Jones Elementary.

I've had children under four teachers; three were excellent, one mediocre. The school is very structured and orderly, good for children who think and act in a highly organized manner. Discipline is strict but also reasonable and restorative. There are more extracurricular programs available here than at most Christian schools, though few programs accept younger students. The better public schools trounce BJES in the variety and availability of art, sports, music, and other extracurricular programs. Parents are involved only as assistants to teachers for parties and lice check. There is no PTA, no real system of parental oversight, and no avenue for parental involvement in daily work. Academically, the school shines in handwriting, Bible, reading comprehension, and listening skills. It is comparable with good public schools in the other areas. The curriculum is neither inventive nor particularly interesting, and 'love of learning' is scoffed at here. Facts and rules are emphasized. Solid.

This school teaches both discipline and respect. It also maintains a superior level of academic achievement. Although some may not agree with their standards you can always know that your child will receive the highest level of academics and attention they need.
