Wilmington Christian School Reviews

While I was at WCS I learned the joy in helping others. I saw how I could serve others and bless them. There were struggles that I could help with, the problem though was the fact that no one wanted to point out these struggles. Everyone knew they were there, or at least those who invested any time into school. Problems like peer pressure and indifference among everyone that caused so much unnecessary anxiety. For example, this is a Christian school where Christians go to learn a Christian perspective on subjects and the world and yet some people felt they shouldn't need to hear about Christ. WCS was a great school and it has some teachers who truly put so much care into their work. Every school has issues and WCS isn't an exception, but there's no doubt they invest in influencing in the future of their students.

We have an elementary student at WCS and absolutely love the school! The staff is great, they are so loving and caring, they give each child the attention the need. The school focuses on being good, Christian people while challenging them academically. We feel as though it truly is the best of both worlds. We are so grateful we found WCS and look forward to the years to come.
They have a strong academic program, but the school's small size limits the amount of extra curricular programs they can afford. Some of the teachers are great, but some are poorly suited to teach. The elementary school is much better than the highschool.
