I have been at this school for five years now, and to me it's a decent school, but not at all worth the price tag. Though I don't blame the teachers, I will say many of the teachers are not very good at understanding and explaining new material to students because many of them don't have degrees in the subjects they teach, or even teaching alone for that matter. The school also is rather biased and favors to bend the rules for the children of families that donate a lot of money and those that align almost directly with their political ideals. I would say there are only two classes I have where I actually learn things, and the others just assign loads of busy work that teaches you nothing and stresses you out. In general, I wish the administration would actually listen and apply changes for some of these things because they receive many complaints on the same things and fail to implement a curriculum that teaches students useful information instead of cramming and having no options.
I am a senior student at the high school campus of Redwood Christian Schools in san lorenzo California. My redwood journey started two years ago in my junior year while online learning was mandated due to the covid - 19 pandemic. I have been able to really get to know every teacher rather well while here at Redwood Christian School, to the point of even having a somewhat personal relationship with few that are willing to venture into more advanced topics in life regarding the many things we as a school are taught. The students are well behaved at all times with the help of the diligent teachers keeping them in line, as any teacher should in a professional setting such as Redwood Christian Schools. Overall my experience at Redwood Christian has been a blast and an adventure i would be willing to do all over again if i could.
Teachers and staff are kind and seem to genuinely care about the kids. However there aren't formal opportunities for parent feedback. And despite having a somewhat racially diverse campus, diversity is not discussed, or celebrated.
Redwood Christian Schools is the school that I've been at my whole life and I love it. Everybody there is nice (students, teachers, and faculty) and I've rarely had problems with the people there.
The teachers deeply care about the students and are available when needed for extra help. The extracurricular options are plentiful and offer a great deal of variety. The school is smaller than public schools, so students have more opportunity to participate in sports and clubs.
I'm currently a student at the high school and I've just had such a great time here. Whether it's the teachers, friends, or events, everything is a good experience. I'm so thankful for how they're centered on good Christian faith, and it's been a total blessing to attend school here.
RCS cares about their students and families. They walk along side you 100% and give support, prayers, and love whenever needed. We’ve loved our time at RCS!
Redwood Christian School has been a joy. Our family loves this school, from the organization, attention to detail, the caring teachers, the love of Jesus, and amazing education. We highly recommend RCS
The teachers and administrators see their students as a ministry and really care about each one. They also care about the families of each student.
Highly committed administrative and instructional staff dedicated to the spiritual and academic development of each child.
Both our kids go to Redwood Christian schools, one at the elementary and the second one at Middle school. They both love your school very much and never complain about going to school. The teachers are very knowledgeable and communicate well with the students. The teachers make learning fun for the students and our kids can't wait to go to school each day.
Our daughter started mid year in 2021. We wanted her to have in person instruction rather than distance learning. She was immediately welcomed by the kids and staff! She has come out of school every day since with a huge smile on her face. It has made such a difference in her and her personality has blossomed. The staff is very friendly and helpful.
Redwood Christian has always been supportive and responsive to the needs of our child. The school educates the whole child rather than focusing only on academics.
We've loved it so far. Teachers and administration are caring and treat you like family! Academics are excellent. My son is in kindergarten and loving it. He's learning so much, reading and having fun.
My kids are thriving at Redwood - relationally and academically. The faculty genuinely care for the students and make themselves available to answer questions. RCS has waded through pandemic times providing the absolute best opportunities for kids to continue in person learning (and distance learning when it was necessary). I highly recommend Redwood Christian Acool.
RCS helps my 8th grader character development; live responsibility, understanding of live consequences, and learning of second chances

Redwood Christian Schools offers excellent education from educators who care for the students and administrators who use common sense in dealing with challenges that arise.
Redwood is an excellent school! I attended k-12th - graduating in '91, and now am privileged to work there. Great teachers who care about individual's kids' needs and seek to help in every way they can. My children are also reaping the benefits of attending RCS.
The staff go above and beyond. From the administrative staff to the teachers, everyone cares, everyone helps each other and staff all pitch in regularly to help each other out. Art, music, and science are all part of the curriculum at every grade level which I think is necessary to develop a well rounded student.
Being a private Christian school there is a code of conduct and ethics for the students to follow and is enforced which is sadly lacking in the public school system.
If there is one thing I would like to add is secondary languages at the kindergarten and elementary grade levels.
