What is the point of school reviews???? In the last week, I, a parent at Mount Vernon Christian School, posted a review. The review provided areas in which our student has been racially discriminated, physically abused by students, and principals have ignored our presence at events while acknowledging other cacausion families right beside us. It's sad to see Mount Vernon Christian just deleted the overall review and totally ignore the problems that exist at the school. There is no Diversity at this school. Students racially discriminate students of other color, race, and culture. We don't reccomend families of other cultures to Mount Vernon Christian. Delete again, and, I, will post again. I understand the best way to solve issues is to problem solve and discuss. It's incorrect to just delete the review becuase it doesn't favor the school. This is a Christian school, don't just sweep the review under the rug. Don't put aside your families of other cultures. I'm writing this on behalf of different families with a diverse cultural background.

My daughter started preschool here this year, and she came home learning so much. I can't believe how much they learn, and how wonderful the teachers are. The staff is very compationate and great with the kids. I visited many other preschools before choosing this one, and we found this to be the best environment, and the best place to start our daughter at. Everything felt exactly as it should.

My son attended here and now my daughter is attending. Wonderful school. Great environment for learning. Highly recommend Mt. Vernon Christian. My daughter loves the school and is learning great values and most of all she is learning about our loving saviour.

I started there in the beginning of my kindergarten year in 1989 then graduated my senior year of high school in 2002. The teachers seem very passionate and always willing to learn. God was always mentioned in every class and no teacher was ashamed to talk about God which is just what the school needed. I felt like I learned a lot from the teachers throughout all the years that I was there.

Community ratings and reviews do not represent the views of GreatSchools nor does GreatSchools check their accuracy or verify the reviewers' identities. Use your discretion when evaluating these reviews.

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.
