Junior: It is a great school filled with many amazing classmates, so I didn't had any problems with finding friends despite the low amount of students. The teachers are very one on one with teaching, so it helps me learn better in general. While it is a school that has cons having no sports or club to apply to, it makes up for that with the various school events throughout the year. Our school's hours are 9 am to 4:30 pm which seems like a bad thing, however we do get more learning in, time dedicated to study and a degree in the end! My only complaint is that the school doesn't have an actual campus, it is small...Read 74 Reviews

Parent: North Hills is a small private Christian school. It's expensive, but they do offer scholarships for those that qualify. My daughters have attended there for 9 years. They do a great job of intertwining the spiritual and academic needs together for the students. ...They have a good athletic program for a private school that has definitely improved each year. We have had problems with some teachers not being good teachers, but the school has done a good job of hearing from students and parents and making the necessary changes. We have had some great teachers at NHCS that have taught my daughters not only their academics but great life lessons. ...I do think there is room for improvement as far as academic advising and preparing students for college. I would like to see more college test prep and more standardized testing options at our school for our high school students getting ready for college...Overall, I would recommend NHCS to families looking for a good Christian school education.Read 6 Reviews

Senior: Elizabeth Seton is a very sisterhood-based community. This community makes sure each student is supported and achieves academic success. Elizabeth Seton allows its students many opportunities and pre-career programs so that they can focus on what they want to study in college early. Programs such as these allow students to figure out what their passions include and if they are interested in making a career out of it. Elizabeth Seton allows students to meet and connect with new people by bringing alumni and guest speakers to talk to current students about challenging times they will face in life and ways to avoid them. Also, Elizabeth Seton ensures that everyone in the community feels safe, loved, and understood no matter what religion, background, or ethnicity they come from. Academics are very important at Elizabeth Seton but also creating a sistership between students that will last beyond a student's graduation is an important goal too...Read 310 Reviews

Senior: Everyone wishes to attend a safety school. Where their is diversity and no judgment. West Rowan High School has provided the safeness I have always wanted from a school. I started attending West Rowan High School at age 15 and since than I have loved the school. Yes, it’s not the biggest school but the interactions we have with our teachers help us gain the knowledge we need. Our school is based on agriculture and we have many diverse students who enjoy taking agricultural classes. My high school has been a great impact in my life. These 4 years of my life helped me grow as a person. Our school has many sports, clubs, and activities to attend! I joined Cross country and Soccer which helped me overcome my shyness to public speaking and helped me communicate better with others. I attended clubs which consist of Spanish club and Crosby Scholars. Our school has many classes or activities to attend which is why I love my high school, this is where I grew up as well...Read 197 Reviews

Parent: My son up till grade 3 was in public. They felt he needed extra help. His grades in the 3rd grade on test were mainly d's. Once he started at TBA his class size was extremely small and could get that one on one attention neededfrom his teacher. His grades went up within 2 semesters. He always thought he was stupid, he said. Now he says he is smart in math and I don't even have to help him. I just look over it, just to make sure he did all his homework. In the 5th grade he got an achievement award for having highest grade point average in his grade. That day was the most important day he had ever. Now all we see are basically A's and 1B...Read 1 Review
