lacking sound education in upper grades. need to update books and stop having kids learn in the hall due to lack of space.
I was worried that my child's needs were not being meet in a public grade school. In public school, my child would go weeks without learning anything new. I wanted him to have more than just an average education. At Strickland the kids start learning parts of speech, diagramming sentences in 1st grade and algebra in 6th grade. If you are looking for a school that will hold your child accountable for their work and give them a strong foundation in reading, writing, and arithmetic; plus is very affordable then consider Strickland as an option.
We have our other child at another very fine school here in Austin. However Strickland gets far more out of my little ones whom attend here. Its truly a find. If you want your children to learn to read, write, and recite mathmatics like a whizKid.. Strickland is likely producing the most capable children at these skills in Austin.
As a former student, the decision to send my 4 yr old to Strickland was 'no-brainer'. They set a strong foundation and love for the Word of God, you could not ask for a better start for your precious child. My son has even began to teach my 3 yr what he has learned! The teachers are loving and such a blessing! I couldnt ask for a better start for my children's future!
The teachers are wonderful and they truly care about the childeren. It is a fantastic christian school and the price is just right. If your child is average, they may struggle. The kids that go here will be the future rocket scientists and nuero-surgeons of the country.
I am an almunae and had a great experience there. They allowed children to truly exceed without preconceived ideas regarding what young children are and are not capable of accomplishing.
This school is incredible. They provided an optimal environmnt for my 5 year old daughter to learn. She learned how to read this year in K-4 and more importantly was taught the Word of God. The teachers are so caring but yet keep order in the class. I highly recommend it.
Class sizes tend to be large (20+ students), but the teachers are excellent.
The parent involvement is very high at Strickland. We love the teachers, and the academics are very strong. We're so glad to have a Christian school.
The parental involvment is great! We love the teachers and the Christian atmosphere.
