Prince Avenue Christian School

• Private School
• Bogart, GA
• PK, K-12
• 100 reviews

Parent: We are very pleased to have our children attending Prince Avenue Christian School! We believe they are getting a very high quality education in a like-minded Christian environment to what our children experience at home. In addition to the high academics and Christian environment, Prince has so many other things to offer in sports, fine arts, and other extracurriculars such that our kids are never at a loss for something to get involved with outside of the classroom. The leadership at Prince is amazing as everything is done with a distinct purpose of excellence. We would highly recommend Prince to anyone looking for a private school that will challenge their kids in all aspects of their life.

Westminster Christian Academy

• Private School
• Watkinsville, GA
• PK, K-12
• 14 reviews

Parent: My daughter has been going to Westminster since Pre-K. It is a very small school, which has its good and bad points. Very community oriented and close knit. Not too much in the way of extracurricular activities, but they do what they can with what they have. Things are added as the student body grows and there are enough students to "go around". Very good academically, not so much on the choice of "extra" classes. Very much a college prep school and they are good at what they do!

• 1 review

Senior: The teachers and administration at Oglethorpe County Middle School work together to promote an educational yet fun learning environment. They are constantly thinking of new ways to encourage better attendance, grades, and behavior. Because the facilities were built fairly recently, they are all nice and up to date. Though it is a small school competing for funds in a financially deprived county, it takes what it has and runs with it.

Senior: I enjoy chapel and the student led boys and girl Bible studies that we have on campus! I really like how the highschool schedule is set up by having a late start on Thursdays. Although my senior class is small I have made some great friends from ACS that I will hopefully be able to keep for a long time. ACS has done a good job at providing different activities for people
of all talents to get involved in. I am very proud and excited to be able to receive my high school diploma from Athens Christian School this May!
