We LOVE this school. Our oldest has been there since he was 20 months old and we are getting ready to enroll our yongest. I find the teachers and administration to be very caring and provide a well-rounded education to the children. Planning on keeping them there through all of their education. Very impressed!
bad bad my son was almost killedin a fight there and the mangment did nothing
I'v been a student at KWCS from Pre-K through 8th grade and have found this school to be one of the best. The teachers create a personal relationship with each student and are willing to devote their personal time to helping others who need it. The learning environment is magnificent, and the teachers will present their knowledge to us in any way required. Though there has been some change in the administration, I believe that KWCS will remain a very strong school. My only concern is that KWCS doesn't offer a very good arts program (Theater, Photo, Band, Paint, Dance, Etc.), therefore causing me to have to change schools this year. I have transfered to the Vancouver School of Arts and Academics and have found it to be an equally good school, but still miss the Christ-centered classes & make frequent visits to KWCS to offer help and say hi to old teachers. If you/your child isn't intending a career in the arts, then KWCS is by far the best school (public or private)for you/your child to attend.
We're new to Kings Way as of Sep08; out of the 3 private christian schools we have attended, King's Way is by far the top. They have recruited the Best teachers and provide a wonderful Christian based higher education.
This is my first year attending King's Way Christian High School. I find the teachers to be kind and supportive. I have a lot of new great friends. The academics are top-notch.
We love Kingsway. My son was in 7th this past yr, doing very well. In his last school he was very bored, disrupted class, grades weren't bad, but could've been better if he'd cared & applied himself. He hated school every day. After transferring to Kingsway, he wouldn't say that he 'LIKES' school now, but it's evident that he's at least interested, getting all A's & participates in class. His disruptive behavior has stopped & he's getting positive reviews from all his teachers. We've found them to be very pleasant to work with; they communicate with us via email on a regular basis about projects & events that are going on, even during summer. Last year they did a renaissance play, dinner, costumes. The elective classes are what we loved most, & being a family of mixed beliefs, the more general religious focus & history was a good fit for us.
I was very happy with King's Way Learning Center until last year. The complete change in the Learning Center's administration definitely raised some suspicion - but they replaced with administration that is cold, unfriendly, and unwilling to help in certain situations. Several staff members have told me they are unhappy with the Administrators as well and are seeking new jobs elsewhere. Very unhealthy environment and we were forced to find another school and displace our child. I think the turn-over rate is going to spiral in the coming school year.
This school is very unorganized and very unreligous. My child does not learn enough in there Bible classes.
I love this school! Our son has been here for 3 years and I have really enjoyed getting to know the staff and families of King's Way. I have found the administration to be flexible and receptive to feedback. My child's teachers have been phenomenal. I can't say enough about the team approach between family and school. I think being involved in your children's academic life is key regardless of your school. I must say however that the Christ centered curriculum is the best part!
What a fantastic school with wonderful and truly caring teachers. The cirriculum is like no other and their new facilities are state of the art. The amount of parent participation is like no other and the accountability between parent child and teacher is tremendous. All the teachers are devoted to giving their students a top notch education scholastically and character building for life itself. Has there been a change in administration? Yes but only for the better - not to mention the extracurricular activities range from chess to wrestling for elementary students on up!
