Senior: This highschool is considerably small and has it's problems, but I'm glad to be here. Our teachers are great. The music teachers are increadible, they become you bestfriend and help you reach the goals that you have set forth for your self. The small size of the school allows for you to get to know just about every person here. My graduating class size is about 35-40 students. This school is more of a village than a institution, everyone is kind, funny and smart in their own individual way!... Read 45 reviews

Works Here: Van Buren is a small town where everyone knows everyone and class rooms are small. There aren't many sports or subjects to study and they just recently got a music program worth while. But at this little town I call home, the teachers have taught the same kids in some places, so they know how to help you succeed. I would like to see more kids more prepared for college when they leave VBHS, as a recent graduate I can tell you I was not prepared and I don't feel like my home school prepared me very well. In this past year it has improved greatly and I hope to see it help Its students even more.... Read 18 reviews

Niche User: The teachers in the middle school are all like one big family. They care so much about the kids, most of them giving up time after school and before school to tutor any student who wants extra help or wants more challenging work. There are several clubs and activities, as well as sports for anyone who wants to take part. The teachers use many different techniques to keep the kids engaged in their studies. I do wish there were more computers available -- the math and science classrooms seem well-equipped. All do have interactive smartboards. No matter what grade level, the teachers all seem to get along and help all of the kids. I have loved the experiences my kids have had in this school -- the teachers are concerned with keeping the kids' grades up, but they also find time to make learning fun with many activities and hands-on projects....

Parent: There are no words to describe how excellent ABM Ministries Lighthouse Christian Academy is; the staff are incredibly caring, loving, empathetic, and use lots of positive reinforcement and humor to encourage each boy to become the best version of himself. Our son was a student here for a couple of years, and his personal growth (emotionally, spiritually and academically) has been absolutely amazing! Every time we visited, we were so impressed at how well-behaved all the boys were, especially knowing that they're all there because of significant behavioral issues at home. The classrooms are state-of-the-art, the student-teacher ratio is only 12 to 1, and there is great diversity in the student body - which we appreciate as our son is African-American. And the tuition is a bargain! The facilities and grounds are beautiful, impressive, and spotlessly clean - always. We will always be grateful to ABM Ministries for helping our son!... Read 4 reviews

Woodberry Forest, VA•
Junior: Woodberry has been the best decision I have ever made. The teachers are second to none at offering their assistance to students who have trouble studying or do not understand the ideas they teach. At Woodberry, academic success is less about the grades and more about the spirit you develop when tackling problems. Being at Woodberry has taught me that the best way to problem solve is to meet the adversary head on and not be afraid to fail. At Woodberry, failing after attempting something challenging is met with compassion and teachers who are more than happy to help you up again and give you another shot.... Read 38 reviews

Parent: My kids have been attending Basis since before the pandemic, and we are so impressed! Rich academic curriculum, good inclusion of the arts, excellent opportunity for differentiation based on student needs. The teachers are dedicated and so are the parents to the kids' success. While the administration has been bumpy as the school has gotten established (only 5 years old), they earned their stripes during the pandemic. Organized, safety-focused and diligent about communication. We supplement school with sports leagues and scouting outside of school, which many parents do. Easy to do given the extensive choice you have in the DC area. Also appreciate the international study body with impressively bright students from all over the world. A real meritocracy, unlike other private schools that admit based on VIP status or connections/donations. In the next few years, this school will only continue to advance its place in the rankings.... Read 46 reviews
