This school is not a typical Christian School with cheap tuition and so-so education. Academics and student safety are their top priorities and they've been sending students to quality universities for a very long time. The school has students from 20+ countries. Great school to build up college resume if your child is getting lost in the crowd in bigger public / private schools. Absolutely recommended for anyone!

This is a nice school with very caring teachers and reliable bus service. We had two boys there who got a solid grounding in early education, reading and math. Non-denominational. It runs K through 12th grade, and I have suggested parents check it out when they are looking for a school at al levels. This is probably not for everyone, but it lives up to the Christian part. No bad language or meanness that we ever saw among the children or by the staff, and which becomes a personal standard that the students adopt. Our boys have very happy memories and we appreciated a safe place and good education. Very sensible principal. NO PTA -- and no fundraising either.

My daughter was reading on a third grade level at age four -- Fairfax Christian School has the BEST phonic and reading program. Love the extras too -- French, Ballet and Soccer!

Absolutely the best academics in Northern Virginia. Well established school with excellent staff. All of my children graduated for Fairfax Christian School and got into TOP universities.

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Unlike public schools, private schools are not always required to report data about their schools or not required to take the same tests as public schools. Many private schools take different standardized tests; however, that information is often made available only to families of enrolled students. We strive to acquire additional private school data whenever available.
