Junior: I just wanted to give a shoutout to my high school, Trinity Prep. It's seriously the best school ever! The teachers are amazing and give excellent instruction to help us succeed. They're always there to help and provide guidance when we need it. One thing I really love about Trinity Prep is the positive vibe on campus. Everyone is so welcoming and friendly, which makes it a great place to learn and grow. The teachers also create personalized learning plans for each student, so we can focus on our strengths and work on areas where we need improvement. In addition to academics, Trinity Prep offers so many fun extracurricular activities like sports, music, and drama. There's never a dull moment at this school! Overall, Trinity Prep is seriously the best high school ever! I'm so grateful for the amazing education and opportunities I've had here. If you're looking for a school that will support and challenge you to be your best self, then Trinity Prep is definitely the place for you!... Read 204 reviews

Senior: I love the First Academy, I began coming to TFA last year. I was instantly accepted and so loved. My College advisors pay so much attention to college pathways and mental health. Administration is very strict on dress code, but they have the best intentions. There are so many opportunity's for everyone here whether that is Coding, fine arts, childcare, sports, or service. The extensive amounts of clubs, committees, and student involvement is just insane. I would not want to choose another high school to graduate from. If I had to make any changes I would change the advocacy for the fine arts, I feel as though they are so great but very under appreciated.... Read 239 reviews

Parent: Each student at Geneva is known and loved by their teachers. The staff work to not only inspire and form students' minds, but their hearts and character as well. They teach them to think critically, which is so rare these days! They make learning fun and memorable, with each grade sharing in immersive, elaborate experiences that fortify the learning they have done that year -- Egypt Day, Greek Day, Pioneer Day, etc! We also love the authentic community found amongst the parents. As Geneva grows, its challenge will be to keep the same personal, connected environment that focuses on a truly Christian classical education as opposed to turning into "just another big private school" in Orlando....

Senior: Overall, Foundation Academy has been the best Christian private school experience. For only attending one year, I can safely say I have felt fully welcomed by everyone around me and have enjoyed every second of my senior year so far. From the moment I stepped on campus, I was greeted with open arms by the administration, students, and teachers. The students around me immediately included me and made me feel like I had been there for four years of high school. The school provides many extracurricular activities, sports, and theatre interests. I have enjoyed going out and supporting my school in the many athletic events we partake in. I would highly recommend Foundation Academy to anyone interested.... Read 146 reviews

Senior: Orangewood Christian is not only academically challenging but also highly focused on Christian values and creating disciples of Jesus. There is a mixed culture of students finding their journeys as Christians, new or familiar with the fair, and faculty passionate about the God they serve and their students. Academically, Orangewood offers high-level classes, including AP and Duel-Enrollment, and a wide array of electives in sports and fine arts. While some things are in still in progress to expand the school and create an effective atmosphere, Orangewood Christian continually encourages and produces students of excellence in academics and character....

Junior: I am currently a junior at Pine Castle Christian Academy. Next year when I am a senior, It will be my 15th year at this school. It's the only school I've ever known and I'm so glad I've had the privilege of attending this school. Teachers at Pine Castle Christian Academy truly care about you and furthering your education. At Pine Castle you become apart of a family and have so many people from different backgrounds. The best things about PCCA is the arts department there is drama, choir, dancing, video tech, band, art and photography. You really get to explore your talents and get closer to God in the process. At PCCA you aren't just a number, but someone that is really cared for and loved. I've seen the ups and down of Pine Castle, but right now it is at a high. There really has been an amazing change in the past two years! God is doing great things with Pine Castle Christian Academy and I'm so glad I get to be apart of that!... Read 27 reviews

Parent: I have a high schooler going into her 8th year at One School. What I really love about this school is the heart the teachers have for the scholars, they show genuine love and care for them individually, academically and spiritually, my daughter even calls one of her teachers her spiritual mentor. This school challenges her and provides different experiences to help her grow that can be used in the "real world" later in life. She is a theatre kid and loves the many stage opportunities she can participate in throughout the year whether it's an open mic performance or a musical/play. She absolutely loves her teachers as well, going to school isn't a chore like most places, there is always something new and exciting happening which makes every day an adventure!... Read 70 reviews

Senior: It is an amazing school! The teachers care about your education but also you as a person. The school provides lots of fun activities for the high school to bond and get to know one another. Our school is K-12 and it feels like a family rather than just a school because a lot of the kids have been then for many years together. The academic expectations are high and the school is a university model both of which push its students to work hard and obtain academic success and gain skills that will last a lifetime!...

Parent: I've had two children graduate from this school. They both were able to dual enroll into college for their senior year because they were well prepared by this school. They both earned the Bright Futures Scholarship too. Both my children were above grade level, this school was able to continue to challenge them. The administrators take their time at enrollment to make a plan for each child to succeed and progress where they are. I'm thankful for all the teachers at this school, they go out of their way to help in any way that they can.... Read 9 reviews

Alum: I transfered to The Master's Academy in the beginning of my junior year along with my sisters (freshman & senior). It was daunting coming into the new school due to high expectations and standards as well the intense vigor of many of the classes. However, I was lucky and had a few key teachers who gave me guidance and encouraged me to improve and adapt to the school. However, my sisters weren't as lucky and had a few teachers that were unorganized and at times rude. I shared this experience in my senior year with an advisor of a society on campus. The leadership needs to grow and become consistent in their discipline of students and classroom standards. Despite its flaws, Master's helped me grow and gave me many opportunities and experiences I would not gotten elsewhere. I specifically want to command the arts department, who made my last years of highschool memorable, and the guidance team who helped me going into Master's and who helped prepare me for college and my future....

Parent: We love the ideals and foundations that OCP instills in our kids. It’s small enough of a school that you know everybody there and are part of the family. We like that it’s a warm, friendly Christian school in the middle of Orlando. The teachers are the friendliest, most down to earth and care about their students even after they complete their class. It’s not just a nice school though, they have so many sports and extracurricular opportunities for the kids and the curriculum challenges the children to Learn and be their best. The only thing I wish we had a OCP was a swim team and golf team. We love OCP!... Read 71 reviews

Senior: I started attending Altamonte Christian in the 4th grade, and am currently a graduating Senior. Having come from public school Altamonte Christian was a bit of a foreign environment for me, but choosing to attend is not something I will ever regret. Like all schools, it isn't perfect, but over the years it has been a home away from home. Its somewhere I feel wanted, and its somewhere I found friends. I found a support system and something consistent in my life, even when life threw many challenges and brought so much difficult change to my life and my family's. It's not just a school, it's a community, a family. The teachers and staff are more than ready to help you through the course of your education, and are determined to see you succeed. Altamonte Christian wasn't what I was looking for, but I am glad it brought such an impact to my life and the person I've become.... Read 23 reviews

The academics at this school are well preparing me for college and I feel confident in the amount of knowledge I’ve gained throughout my time there. I feel like I’ve made so many healthy relationships there, and the school atmosphere isn’t terrible, although there are some things that could be better about the school culture. When I look back on my time at this school it will be mostly a positive experience.... Read 143 reviews

Freshman: This school is amazing. The teaching system is great for kids that are trying to do well in the world. The teachers are great teachers and very funny. Most of the student part take in a sport or club. SInce this is a private school it cost miney, but its worth it. They help you understand God's word and you can always ask a teacher for any question or help that you need. The lunch food is better that most schools lunch, luckly, you can pack your own lunch. There are lots of fun activitys the school does which makes the school day better. In my opinion I think trying it for one year won't hurt, don't just take my word for it.... Read 51 reviews

Parent: We have been nothing short of thrilled with our decision to join Faith Christian Academy. As a new family to Florida, it was important that the school we chose gave us a sense of faith, friendship, & community. FCA has provided us all of that and more. My son is thriving and is guided by faith with a firm but loving hand. The staff reinforces our family beliefs and values and guides my son as if they are an extension of our home, instilling morals & values while delivering a strong academic curriculum. We look forward to being part of the FCA family for many years to come!... Read 47 reviews

Senior: My experience with Southland Christian School has been really good and memorable. I’ve been enrolled to this school since 6th grade and right now I’m finally graduating there. I love the administration and activities they have. I love how they teach you to have a relationship with God and how to handle life. I really recommend checking the school out. The Abeka education is really good and advanced. I learned a lot from this education. Southland has a really good sports department and also music/ theater department. I have great memories with those departments. The food that the school gives is really delicious and also the lunch room is a good average size. The teachers at Southland are really nice and I love how they connect with the students and try to help us out as much as possible. Administration as well love to help out families in need. Like I said I do recommend looking into Southland Christian School and know for yourself how great of a school it is.... Read 45 reviews

Parent: My daughter has been here for 3 years and has grown so much academically, socially, and spiritually. Last year the school installed smart boards and added 60+ laptops. They added choir and music programs, Spanish classes to elementary and middle school. The administrators and teachers care for my daughter like she is their own. I have seen teachers bring things for students out of the kindness of their heart and I love it here. The school also has a devotion for the school every morning. I've walked through the halls to listen to the topics and found them to be very uplifting, even for me! The food is cooked daily and is fresh. I know they are planning to add a gymnasium which should help with improving extracurriculars and clubs. The overall culture of the school is a welcome, loving atmosphere where I know my daughter is safe and cared for. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a local, Christian school in the Orlando area.... Read 7 reviews

Senior: This school has many great qualities that parents look for in a private Christian school. The teachers care about their students' academics but they also care about their overall well-being. They always offer extra help by encouraging students to get connected with the tutoring program that is provided, which I am very honored to be a part of. There is a vast quantity of extracurriculars that students can explore and from what I have seen, the sports and music programs at RLCA are very welcoming and students work hard to further their skills together as a team and individually. It has been astonishing to witness so many students furthering their faith at RLCA, especially at Wednesday chapel. I have no complaints because I have not experienced anything that would make me think that this school was incapable of being a great one.... Read 62 reviews
