Immanuel Christian Academy Reviews

We love the community with ILCA. The teachers from elementary to high school are high quality teachers that care about the kids. The Fine Arts department is second to none in a school this size. The STEM department is rapidly growing. This is a true Christian school with chapel a minimum of once a week and Bible/Religion classes that are well taught and 100% Biblical. The school has armed security guards on constant patrol that interact with the students. The students are greeted every morning when they come in the front drive. My daughters have been offered other options and have no desire to go anywhere else. Class sizes are small (My 3rd grader has 10 kids in her class!), and the teacher are communicative.

The place where the school has room (and plan) for growth is within the actual space of the high school and the sports facilities.

I highly recommend ILCA.

My daughter has been at ILCA since she was age 6. She is now 16 and I would not have sent her anywhere else to be educated. The Head master is amazing and the teachers are informative and engaging. I have nothing but good things to say about ILCA. The kids are amazing and my daughter still loves it. She loves the comradery and we love that they Love the Lord.

We had 3 children here at different times. I finally pulled my last child out this year due to irresponsible leadership and immature management decisions at the school. If you have therapeutic adopted children or foster care children, know that ILCA isn't equipped to help your kids. Sports are most important at this school. The teachers are full of grace and mercy but to a fault. Since sports are so important, there are so many redos for kids to be eligible to play on these small teams. The standardized test scores were consistently low for my therapeutic adopted son, nearly identical for 3 years straight. One of my biggest regrets has been sending my kids to this school. It's been detrimental to their development. It was a good fit for my daughter in the 3rd grade, but high school was a different story. My daughter is thriving now at her new school academically and spiritually. We didn't know what we didn't have until we had it.

Review Immanuel Christian Academy

Been with Immanuel for 9 years. Love the place. Great opportunities and many ways to stay engaged. I have really enjoyed being a membet of this family.

Immanuel offers many opportunities in a small environment. With 30 students enrolled in the high school program, engaging with others becomes a welcome experience and allows for individual growth.

It is a great school and it is very welcoming. The staff and teachers will help you with anything you need and always treat you with love. No one is not accepted.

I have been going to Imannuel for a few years now, I started attending Immanuel in 6th grade and am now in my senior year. I believe the school has some of the most dedicated staff that one can find. The math teacher Ms. G arrives early every day and stays late most days to help students study after school. The school has always been, in my opinion, a warm and welcoming place.

I have been attending school here since I was old enough to attend. My favorite aspect of this school is the relationships I have gained while being here. It is a very small school, which the students benefit greatly from when it comes to academics. They are very good when it comes to the college prep. They offer a variety of duel-credit courses which helps the students out greatly.

All the teachers and students know each other. The older kids help with the younger grades and the teachers are always cheerful and communication is excellent. My son enjoys going to school there and hates to miss a day.

great teachers and staff. Great group of parents who volunteer countless hours to make a lot of our programs successful.

The only good teachers in the middle school/high school department is the math and history teacher.

I feel as if our school needs an armed policeman on campus again. We used to have one, but they got rid of him. I felt far safer at my school with the policeman there to keep watch. Yes, it is a lot of money each year, but I feel we can take money away from sports and invest it in a policeman.

There need to be more focuses on different extracurricular activites other than sports. This school places far too much money and time into their sports programs. There needs to be more variety.

The school has some problems with fairness. (Mostly this year.) Overall, I think that the school board needs to be more approachable by students and needs to listen to the parents and students more.

The teachers are very approachable and they will help when you need help. I feel as if they are great at teaching. I see them more as friends than teachers.

Rooms are pretty clean, as are hallways. Bathrooms can get pretty gross and a few rooms have mold or something black and gross in the tiles.

They do offer plenty of sports/other activities for the small amount of students but it seems like they focus on too much at one time and nothing does very well.

Review Immanuel Christian Academy

There is not much freedom for students to express themselves. If they do give some, it doesn't make anything better because there is always limits. Another disappointing factor is the amount of students. I know that isn't something that can be controlled, but it is a major bummer. It does have a Christian enviornment though, which is great.

Very small school, which can be good but also bad. Food isn't that great.

We've had a lot of different teachers over the years. Some were absolutely amazing, and others were not. This year, the teachers are great. Most are smart, dedicated and kind. They are definitely interested in all of the students. Teaching styles differ greatly, but all students get a healthy dose of hands-on activities, great lectures and projects.
