Alum: Great community to be apart of! There is always a push to improve resources and curriculum. There is a focus on integrating technology in the classroom which sometimes hurt the learning atmosphere. Considering how fast technology changes this may no longer be the case since I've graduated. Learning is prioritized but fun doesn't get left behind. Dances were always fun to plan and promote and attend. S I wish the visual arts programs were more developed and encouraged. While I attended the art teachers really inspired me, but I wish they had better rooms and materials to work with. By the time I graduated high school, I felt very prepared for college. I do think the counselor didn't give me the time of day because I wasn't at the very top of class and I didn't want to become a doctor or lawyer. Either way I got into a top art school in the country and have an amazing job in my field.... Read 95 reviews

Parent: MRA is a college prep school with a Christian emphasis that prepared my daughter thoroughly for college! From kindergarten to high school graduation the academics, leadership opportunities, community service programs, and true family atmosphere nurtured her to be very well equipped for her future. The faculty and staff are amazing and still remain interested in her well being even after she graduated.... Read 60 reviews

Alum: I am very pleased with Mount Salus. They provide a wide variety of academic, dual-enrollment, and extra-curricular opportunities. The teachers are understanding and open-eared. Mount Salus makes it clear, they care for God's children, so I would feel comfortable sending a parent there. As an alum, I am proud to represent the eagles everywhere I go. The lunches were great and the price was fair. The everyday culture is Christian-based even though they welcome other religions. It was a great experience. The class sizes are small and personal so every student has an opportunity to have their voice heard. They claim to be a college-preparatory school, and I am a personal witness that that claim is true.... Read 10 reviews

Senior: CCA has supportive staff and is a Christian environment. They are constantly working to improve the facilities both in sports and performing arts. They strive to offer students with athletic or academic opportunities to meet their individual needs. CCA has a laid back environment with an open door policy to parents who want to be involved in school activities and support the school mission. The teacher student ratio is low offering some small group classes. Due to small classes there are some sports that are currently not offered, but there are plans to expand in the future to soccer and volleyball. They do offer cross country, track, archery, football, baseball, basketball, golf, and softball.... Read 50 reviews

Senior: The Piney Woods School is a great school for upcoming high schoolers!!! I am currently a uprising senior at the Piney Woods School and every thing is Amazing. I like the dorms a lot, they are set up just like it would be at college. So when you go to college you already know what to expect from the dorms and dorms parents and the other students there. One thing I do not like about the school is the lack of communication the staff and faculty have sometimes, but overall it’s great!!!... Read 30 reviews

Parent: Canton Academy has literally put the grit and grace back into my daughter. She was previously enrolled in a larger public school. At first, we noticed her grades declining, she became very negative, and uninterested in any activities. She started not wanting to go to class. To the point of having major panic attacks. It was heartbreaking to see this beautiful, smart young lady start to become just a shell of a kid. Canton Academy welcomed our entire family with open arms. Tuition was going to be a new struggle for us. But after seeing her come out of this black cloud, I would have given any amount of tuition. Canton Academy has given her spirit back to her. She is involved in several school clubs, she plays on the varsity softball team. They truly take a vested interest in every child at their school. The only thing I would change is enrolling her sooner. They say, “It takes a village to raise a child”. We found our village at Canton Academy.... Read 32 reviews

Alum: I loved my experience at Park Place. I was very involved at the school, and I knew almost everyone by name. It was a great small school environment. As a student body, we cared for each other like family. When I left Park Place, I felt well prepared in Math and Science for when I got to college. I loved the atmosphere of Park Place so much that when I graduated, I went back and applied for a job there just so that I could be around the people.... Read 37 reviews

Senior: East Rankin Academy is small private school with 44 students in my graduating class. I love that the classroom student to teacher ratio is small which allows for better learning. Everyone at my school is friends, there is no bullying or bad behavior that goes on within the school. Everyone from the staff, faculty, to students are friendly and helpful. I love my school!...

Parent: New Hope Christian School is such a blessing. My child attends NHCS as a very sweet, independent, respectful Christian, taught by NHCS. NHCS has given my child a strong educational and Christian foundation. The staff at NHCS is AMAZING! I work full time and feel as if I can”t spend enough time with my child, but, I am proud to say that the school family allows me to do what I need to do and not worry. The staff understands that every child is different, every child has a different personality and not every child learns the same way. They work together to come up with new ideas to make learning fun. They master the skill of effective communication with students. It takes a village to raise a child. NHCSchool will teach your child, love your child and listen to any suggestions or comments. NH has an elite group of teachers and staff that care. If a student has a problem, just communicate it. NH will not let you carry the burden of worrying about your child alone.... Read 6 reviews

Parent: A true family environment! Much smaller classes make for a better learning opportunity. The Athletic program offers any/all athletics that any athlete may be interested in. Bible class is a plus at this school that is not provided at any public institution. As a new transfer from public to this private school, we are truly blessed. Every aspect of our new year has been phenomenal. We love our new family and friends. Everyone wraps themselves around this school and all the students that are here. Keep asking ourselves, "Where have we been all this time?" Looking forward to getting more involved and becoming even closer to all the new friends that we have made!... Read 47 reviews

Parent: I’m happy that I enrolled my daughter into Mission First. They are Christ-centered, & they really go out of their way to make sure everyday is a learning adventure for these kids. I be amazed at some the curriculum & activities they perform daily. If you’re looking for a sound school, then look here because I wouldn’t go any where else!... Read 3 reviews
