Run, don't walk to enroll your child at this school! I was so worried - my son's grades were fine, but there was no spark. At Christchurch, he is excited about something every day. He actually looks forward to school. CCS covers all the basics very well, but there's so much other stuff, too. He called the other night, so excited because they're building an oyster reef - the kids actually buy the baby oysters with cans they recycle! Thank you, thank you, thank you Christchurch - for giving my smart son his spirit back, for giving him the great atmosphere and people to help him become the student that I knew he would be! And he's with other kids who love school, too. So it's cool. Such a beautiful place, so safe. Brilliant, kind, patient teachers - I can never repay them for what they've done for our family.
I believe my son has grown a great deal in the following areas physically,mentally. and maturity. Christchurch is a schhol that tries to have every child reach their maximum potential. Very impressed so far
We have been quite disappointed in this school. CCS' environment is not what we felt was represented during the admissions process. There have been numerous disciplinary expulsions during this semester, reflecting either an admissions issue or some type of systemic problem. The website is glorious; our experience has not been. As an Episcopalian who was looking for a community of caring and commitment, my faith has been sorely tested regarding my son's tenure here.
This is the best school ever! My son enrolled at Christchurch school this year and loves it. I have noticed a remarkable improvement in his writing and his research skills. Christchurch is preparing him to attend the best colleges because of it's emphasis on college preparation, structure, and study skills. I would not trade the quality of education at Christchurch for anything. The fact that 86% of the faculty and staff live on campus creates a perfect family environment. I encourage anyone interested in Christchurch School to set up a campus visit and tour. We are glad we did!
School provides a comprehensive education. One of the better aspects of the school is that the school allows the students an opportunity to make their own decisions. This as opposed to making all the decisions for the students. The schools also provides boarding for only boys. The school remains very actively locally becasue fo the enrollment of day girls.
