Sophomore: While attending Chambersburg Area Career Magnet School, I was able to develop one on one bonds with my teachers and administrators. The course selection consists mainly of honors classes and AP classes. Although the classes offered are of higher levels, there are very limited options for students to take. Only one art class is given and, when I was interested, only Spanish classes 1 and 2 were provided. After completing both classes I wanted to move on to Spanish 3, but it wasn’t offered. There’s a lot of club opportunities and I was elected into the Student School Board, providing me with leadership skills. CMS is more of a technology based and hands on high school. We used ipads for our education and everything we needed was always at our fingertips. Since it is a mildly selective magnet school, the learning environment consisted of students like me who cared about their education, making the school years easier and less distracting. My school highly stressed career opportunity...Read 53 Reviews

Parent: We enrolled our son at The Hillside School in second grade. He was there for three years then re-enrolled in seventh grade to help pilot the middle school program. The strategies he was taught in reading and writing along with skills in meta-cognition and self-advocacy have successfully supported him through high school and he will graduate in June. He was recently re-evaluated by our local school district in preparation for college admission. While he will always have a learning difference, he has tested out of needing specially designed instruction and hence an IEP. ...The faculty and staff at The Hillside School has consistently guided us with compassion and respect. Our investment in our son's education in his elementary and middle school years has been worth the time, effort and money put forth. My gratitude for Hillside is deep and wide. We celebrate our son's strengths every day and look forward to a bright future...Read 1 Review

Senior: As a senior, I can look back on my high school experience and say that it was good! I have had very positive experiences with some very well-educated teachers that I learned from and retained information from. I have had, and have observed others having, a very positive experience with the students at CVCS. Not everyone at our Christian school is a Christian, but, for example, in the way new students are accepted into friend groups, there is evidence that our school is different from your average public school. Our school has a great program for sports, in which many students are participants. Music and art are not as popular, but I think our school does a good job making sure that those who are interested are not forgotten. For changes, I would strengthen the student-wide Christian faith in our school, as well as the individual student's love for the Lord, so that we would become an even better example of Jesus' love to other schools, other people, and our whole community...Read 16 Reviews

Senior: I have been in the Shalom community since kindergarten, and this coming school year will be my last year at Shalom. I have had a wonderful experience at Shalom! I have made lifelong friends, received a great education with great, caring teachers, and learned many other life lessons. Although no school is perfect, I think Shalom Christian Academy is doing a great job compared to some other schools in and around other areas. I would like to see some changes in the dress code in terms of being more lenient and "changing with the times" because sometimes it is hard to follow guidelines when clothes are not sold that follow those guidelines. Also to maybe provide computers to students who do not have or can not afford one...Read 45 Reviews

Senior: Global Vision Christian School is where I got to open up so much opportunities I could not exploit before. To be honest, I was very hesitant to attend GVCS because of its long distance and the very fact that I had to leave my parents. But I wanted to take the given opportunity to study in a good environment where not only academics were regarded high but the spiritual value also. Being a GVCS student, I learned that interactions within the community was what conceived exceptional friendships and the loving and caring atmosphere helped me grow not only outwardly but outwardly also. I am also grateful on the school's focus to foster us students as global leaders and I have experienced this value in hand by their endeavors for us to experience different cultures as much as possible. They are very much open to the opinions of students and let us exploit new things such as new clubs and activities. It was through my time in GVCS that I was to build myself and aspire my future dream...Read 17 Reviews
