Parent: We have been BEYOND impressed with Lakeview Academy for our girls. Lakeview is not our first private school we have been a part of due to family moves, but Lakeview is by far our favorite. It not only has top notch academics for our daughters, but also manages to make every student feel like they are a part of a family. We love the community, the school and all the extracurriculars the school has to offer. We are so looking forward to having Lakeview prepare our girls for college from PreK3 all the way through their senior year. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a private school in Northeast Georgia!... Read 65 reviews

Parent: To say that our family loves Covenant Christian School would be an understatement. Without a doubt, CCS has a robust, rigorous and Christ centered curriculum which challenges students at every level. The teachers and staff at CCS genuinely care about nurturing our children academically and spiritually. They not only show love to our children but they go above and beyond to help them succeed. The School communicates often with parents and engages us in every aspect of the learning process. Our sons are challenged every day and it’s simply wonderful to watch them thrive there. We are so grateful to be part of this wonderful CCS community!... Read 13 reviews

Alum: Like some other alums have mentioned, Saint Anselm’s changed my life, giving me the chance to build confidence in myself, explore my interests, and form strong relationships.
