Parent: Small, friendly, Norman Rockwell school where everyone knows each other. We have a new brick building with geothermal heat and solar and a garden out back. Some good teachers and some poor ones, but an overall good atmosphere without bullying.... Read 2 reviews

Parent: My children LOVE this school – from the teachers to the students to the challenging curriculum. St. Dom's integrates compassion into their teaching standards, emphasizes the importance of values, and builds leaders through each of their classes and lessons. Though it is a small school, it allows for a lower student-to-teacher ratio, giving children more confidence when asking questions, engage in group activities, and opportunities for one-on-one time with the teachers. Teachers are passionate about seeing their students succeed. They are so great about sharing moments of pride they see within your child – their good behaviors and achievements. Great team – great school!... Read 82 reviews

Senior: The people at Open Door are incredible, they are always trying to help you with your education and also helping you grow in God. It is a very small school so everyone knows everyone which allows a lot of us to be very close to one another. The people are very genuine. The education we receive is a very good one, the classes are harder than normal which challenges us to become better students.... Read 2 reviews

Freshman: The middle school experience is really nice here, every school experience is rough for middle school kids. Here, however, since it is a small community and small school, you make friends that stick with you through it. The teachers are very one on one due to the small number of students. They really care and get to know their students rather than just mindlessly teach them. They often stay after and come in early to work with students who choose to do the same.... Read 1 review

Senior: I love going to school at Calvary Christian Academy. I feel it is a very healthy learning environment which promotes strong Christian values, community involvement, teamwork, peer support, responsibility and goal achievement. Our teachers are true mentors who care about our life plan(s), and work as a team to make sure each student is moving forward toward a purposeful Christian life. Parents are actively involved, too, in all aspects of the school: clubs, sports, extracurriculars, and meal preparation. It truly feels like a family here at CCA, and I can't imagine going to any other school.... Read 3 reviews

Parent: Depending on the team your student is placed on, they get slightly different experiences. The standards are the same, but the delivery and style of the teachers is very different. Sometimes the newer teachers will struggle to handle their classes and meet the needs of every child, but with so many teachers retiring these days, I think that's a given in many local districts. If you make sure your child reads every day and does their homework, then they will be challenged in their classes at AMS. The problem can be the students who don't have good role models at home and disrupt the learning of others in class. There are numerous opportunities for enrichment with a CLC program full of after-school activities, lots of school sports, Odyssey of the Mind, a great drama program and free after-school help from teachers who are always willing to stay with students and support them. The food is great in the cafeteria, and the administration is really trying to build a stronger school overall.... Read 1 review

Middle School Student: I enjoyed all three years of my middle school experience. We had a lot of fun activities throughout the year. Such as Day of Caring where students go out and help out their communities. The teachers are very caring about their students. They go out of their ways to make sure the students succeed. There were several times when I needed help and my teachers never hesitated to help me. Oak Hill Middle School has a wide range of clubs & activities. From soccer and baseball to lego robotics and drama. There have been bullyings in the school but the teachers and administrators do make sure the students feel safe.... Read 3 reviews
