I love this school. My niece and nephew went to this school for years and my husband and I were so impressed with how much they learned that we decided to put our daughter there as soon as she turned 2. Now my daughter knows more than a lot of the other children her age that we know. The staff is great and very family oriented.

My children have attended this school for three years and this year has by far been the absolute worst ever. This school is not accredited by ACSI or VCPE. The teachers are not licensed, which is not a requirement. However, the teacher and staff have no regards for boundaries with the students. Rules are put in place when it is convenient. The director is far from people oriented and has no clue how to run a school, let alone what to say out of her mouth. The sad thing is this is a Christian school behaving worst than any public school.

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.
