i love this school because it feels like home.
I attended B.I.C. from K5 to 8th grade, and to be honest they have some flaws in their teaching style, and they in other places they don't. My mom wanted my sister and I to attend a school with more extracurricular activities, thats we didn't attend their highschool. Overall I can say that my experience was great up until 5th grade. I don't like it that they have 2 or more grade levels in one class together, when I was in 5th, they had 3rd 4th and 5th graders in the same class together. Thats just not a good idea we all the kids were basically taught the same thing. And to close they have alot of favoritism with students they take a liking to.
Believers in Christ is a very good school. I attend there from k3-12 grade. I feel there is no better schools to have your child attend. Their teachers are caring they go beyond the regular school hours to help any child in need. They try to work with you for any situation you are in and that my be preventing you from being great. They have many classes that hold your interest other then the regular curriculum; they have art, computer, and about three foreign language classes. They make sure you understand the information before they move you. So when you do switch schools, you can be well prepared. When I left B.I.C for college I was ready, when teachers started talking about what books needed to be read for their classes, I had already read some attending B.I.C. I feel anyone that does not like the school has some personal problem with someone that might work their, but it probably has nothing to do with the teaching style. If you leave B.I.C and find yourself behind at other schools, you my not have been doing what you were suppose to when you went there.
I currently attend B.I.C. and it's not the best school that I would recommend, but yet it's not the worst. The teachers care about you, and treat you like you're their own, but the academic program is very low, comparing from a better school, in which i previously attended--> Golda Meir is an excellent school<--but like i was saying, alot of the things that i learn specifically in math are self taught, but please dont misunderstand me, if you ask for help, the teacher will break everything down in the best way. Believers In Christ has very little extra curricular activities. There's 1 extra curricular class-computers. So far, computer class has came to be useless, but is planned to better since we're only in our 1st quarter. Most parents like mine would considered B.I.C. a great school, but now alot of parents are realizing that it's not. i forgot to add:Theyaresomuchstuckongettingusaboveourlevelsomestudentsknowthingsthat9thgradersarelearningbutdontevenknowthe7thor8thgrademath.Imsorryifpeopledisagreewithme,butimtalkingfromeperience
The academic program for this school is not great at all. My child attended from K5-3rd and was tested at another school where my child only tested on a 2nd grade level. The 2nd and 3rd grade teachers were not up to par which put my child behind. By the end of 3rd grade my child's class did was not working on material leading into 4th grade. There is not text book material, everything is from worksheets. My experience with this school is not great at all.
Believers In Christ has an overall caring environment. The teachers genuinely care about us as students and want to be involved in what is going on in our lives. They are on top of education, being a cornerstone of my education throughout my life. I will forever be in gratitude for their outreach to me and the opportunities bestowed upon during my time there.
Believers In Christ Christian Academy is a very good school. They are well connected with the students. I am a former student. I went to B.I.C from kindergarten to fifth grade. After residing somewhere else, I returned to B.I.C for my sophomore year. I believe they have wonderful academic programs. They teach you above and beyond public schools. This is the best school I have ever attended. You feel the love here, and they are very high-spirited. The atmosphere is amazing to be around. The teachers are wonderful, and they provide the students with confidence and great support. B.I.C teaches caring, sharing, manners, respect, discipline, etc. If I have never attended B.I.C, I honestly think I would not be half the person I am today. They are bubbly, happy, and a very positive school to attend. It is a wonderful school.
