Parent: The Hill School is aptly named the family boarding school for good reason. From our first tour, it was clear to us that Hill is more than just a top-notch education. We have two daughters at Hill and could not be more pleased with the faculty, education, after-school activities and warm environment. Hill has been a leader in handling the COVID protocol at boarding schools since the beginning of the pandemic. We highly recommend touring Hill if your child is interested in boarding school....

Senior: Spring-Ford High has a huge variety of classes...dozens of AP offerings, electives in everything from journalism to jewelry making, entrepreneurship to economics. They are also connected to an outstanding vo-tech school. Because of the large numbers of students, there are hundreds of clubs available not to mention sports teams.

Parent: The choice of how & where to school children is one of the major decisions parents must make for their children. As parents of four children, this was a growing concern as our first child was reaching school age. While there were many options available that we explored, we are continually confident that Coventry Christian Schools was the best option for our family. With children now in the secondary and elementary levels, we remain grateful for this school community. Our top three reasons are: strong educational value(classical school model), family friendly community, and a safe environment on multiple levels. Such a blessing to have this major decision secure, having CCS as an wonderful aid in our primary role to parent our children. Lastly, each of children love going to this school! :)...

Senior: I loved my experience at PJP and it’s been a huge blessing in my life to go there! The opportunities they give their students have impacted my life greatly. I am involved in musical theater, show choir, and band at PJP. In these programs I’ve been able to make so many friendships and I’ve learned so much about the craft that I love. School used to be something I dreaded and once I went to PJP I learned to love school and I really get excited about learning and seeing everyone each day. Pope John Paul’s response to covid was to have us go to school in a hybrid form. I am so grateful for the opportunity to get to go to school safely during these times. Pope John Paul the Second High School has been an amazing experience so far and although I am sad to leave, I am very excited to move onto college and further my studies in music and in therapy....

Parent: As far as I can see, the only negative to PAMS is that it is filled with middle schoolers. Anyone who has one knows what I mean. The facilities are brand new and amazing, although they could've added a little color to the hallways and lockers. The auditorium theater is better than some I've seen in the city. The administration is great and engaged. There are a few teachers that leave something to be desired, but the majority are very good.... Read 3 reviews

Parent: Transferring to Montgomery was the best decision we made. After a very short time our child has become much more independent and confident. She loves school! In previous years she never enjoyed science. Now, science is her favorite subject! (the science teacher by the way is incredible!) All teachers are at Monty. Each teacher is unique and fully invested. Entering as the “ new kid” mid year did not phase her one bit. The admissions team, faculty, students and family laid out the red carpet for our daughter. The children are kind, polite and inclusive. Montgomery is more than a school, it is a family. Our only regret is that we didn’t enroll years ago. Thrilled we found this gem of a school! Highly- highly recommend.... Read 22 reviews

HCA has given him the opportunities flourish and grow so much in such a short amount of time. His language skills have improved immensely and he is learning so much from his ABC’s, to manners and numbers. Not only is he getting an amazing education, but he is forming lasting friendships. Lucas is so excited to go to school everyday to see his teachers and friends. HCA truly offers a family feel. Everyone already knows Lucas. When we attend events, even the older kids say hi to him and address him by name. We have such piece of mind knowing that Lucas will learn and grow at HCA through the 8th grade. We couldn’t ask for a better partner in raising our child.... Read 14 reviews
