Bakersfield Christian High School

• Private School
• Bakersfield, CA
• 9-12
• 71 reviews

Alum: BCHS was a fantastic high school to attend. Combining a Christian education with a rigorous academic path to completely prepare students for college is an extremely difficult task, but BCHS executed this mission perfectly. The administration and staff here are incredible and always greet you with a smile. In recent years, BCHS began a rigorous training course for all students in preparation for the SAT test. Because of this, our school has scored higher than the national average. Finally, the athletic piece of BCHS ties the school together. I myself participated all four years on the swim team. Every sports team has achieved higher by our senior year than when we started our freshman year, and the trend is still leaning upward.

North Kern Christian School

• Private School

• PK, K-12
• 1 review

Senior: North Kern Christian School's staff is extremely supportive and helpful when you approach them for help, no matter what time of day. I would not be the person I am today without their example. If I could change anything about this school it would be the limited amount of social school activities offered. The school as a whole would have the opportunity to become closer united if there were more social activities. Also, to promote unity, I believe Sport teams would also benefit that movement.

High School Senior: It's a great school, a great curriculum, its a school that parents would send their kids that need to stay out of trouble sometimes. If I were to have to go to this school again in the future I would because it has great people, great understanding and its just a place where you can go and not feel alone. They make you feel wanted.
