Knoxville Christian School

This is a wonderful school for those who REALLY care about what their children are being taught. The teachers and staff are VERY concerned about each child's needs and treat parents well no matter how much they can pay or do for the school! We had children there for 8 years and look forward to another great year. This year there have been some administration changes and I feel the school will really benefit from them. The principal did a GREAT job last year and I hear they have some new technological advances and a new baseball field too. If you want a place where your child is taught about christain values in every academic subject this is the place to be!

Our kids have been attending this school for the last 8 years and we look forward to another great year. Parents that REALLY care about their child's spiritual as well as academic growth will find a safe harbor here. The school is multiply accredited, family oriented, loving and fair. There have been some changes in the administration this year and we feel it is really going to benefit the school. The principal is FANTASTIC, the teachers really know their stuff and care about the children in their care and they also have a great school counselor! They have a new playground, high school bldg. and are putting in a new baseball field this summer. Come and check it out!

First and foremost, I would like to say, there are some folks currently on staff at KCS that are an exception to the statements below, However, At this point, I would have to respectfully decline to send my child for another year at KCS, If You have a preschool-8th grade student with little or limited interest in athletics, you may be Happy with this organization, However if High School is your need, I would have to decline to recommend this organization, on multiple levels, I was/am less than pleased with the academic resources employed by the school, the lack of experience and ability with many, but certainly not all, of the high school educational staff, the lack of guidance and clarity in academic issues, basically if you child is not already an A/B student the likelihood is he/she will be left to their own, the support was academic support is spotty at best. With the failed football program, and future of the athletic program now at a virtual standstill, unless your child s interest is solely academic in nature, and he/she, is a natural born student, I would have to recommend you search further.

My son loves his school because it help teaches him about loving god and loving people and doing your very best as a student. As a parent I love the fact that they emphasis it takes a village to raise a child. We are able to see how everyone comes together as a family.

This school has seen some radical changes since a year ago with the arrival of a new principal and other office staff. We ended up pulling our son out this year due to the unfriendly atmosphere and the acceptance of some students with major behavior problems. It is not worth paying that much money.

My oldest son attended KCS over 20 years ago, as did yougest son, and my grandson. I love the school. This school is not for people who are willing to accept a mediocre educations for their children. I must dispute the school expects you to make it your life. I had almost no time to help, and they still were wonderful to my children.

This school's staff is very nice and I was never treated poorly. The whole staff has Christian character and they love the students. This school is small but is growing steadily. It offers a great Preschool program and it also goes to the 12th grade not just the 11th. This school is teaching Christ in everthing they teach. The academics are on target and the school is accredited. Can't Lose! Check it out!

This school has some very serious issues and we ended up pulling our children out very late in the year because we could not deal with the inconsistencies. The facutly and staff are not happy unless the school is your entire life and you are treated poorly if you don't let it consume your life. They are willing to work with you when it comes to finances but then they hold that over your head and use it to get you to do what they want you to do. They are not very excepting of other religions, other than Church of Christ.
