Private Schools

This school is horrible. The bullying is rampant, more so than any public or private school. When I was there I was constantly harassed and beat up with teachers who did nothing about it. Talking to some friends who had the same experiences as I did at this same school, I came to the conclusion that this school cannot handle bullying. Also, not being a seventh day adventist, but rather a Baptist, I was constantly harangued by teachers who told me that if I didn't quit going to church on sunday I would go to hell. For a second grader this treatment is abuse, and I was afraid to go there after a while. Please don't send your kids here, it will only harm them.

An outstanding school run by an exceptional group of folks who genuinly care about the healthy development of children. I attended back in the late 80's at a different location and cant begin to describe how fundamentaly important and memorable that part of my life was. From neat little activities like arts and crafts, to special guests and science projects, lesson plans always offered intuitive and age appropriate ways to involve a hands on or interactive dynamic which would resonate with our young minds and provide essential cornerstones to base our future education. Generally all my fellow peers whom I have reconnected with over the years went on to achieve notably successful careers. Thank you Mary Lou, Ellie and Chris Wardenberg.

Nice teachers, good ways of teaching, and fun events (Spirit Week and the Christmas Banquet were the best parts)!

We have had a great year at Foothills. Everyone has been so welcoming and friendly. You are all wonderful.

I love this school I wish they had a grade to the end!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This place is so great! My son loves to go to school everyday. small class size, unique child centered approach.

Good People. The students are kind. The teachers are caring. The admins are helpful. The campus is great.

This year is my first at Grace Academy, and I am continually blessed by the experience. The school community has been welcoming and encouraging, and the students are a pleasure to teach. I love that I have opportunity to invest in my classes and students individually and can share my faith with them in all parts of the school day. This school is grounded and faithful to both its Biblical and Academic purposes.

Excellent preschool. My nephew loves going here and the teachers are nice. Great set-up and organized, consistent environment we feel good about.

We love, love, love Valley Christian! We've had our son there for a few months now and love Ms. Penny & Ms. Whitney and have heard nothing but fantastic things about Ms. Pierce! The teachers are gentle, patient, loving, communicative and so appreciated. Our son isn't perfect but Ms. Penny is so patient w/ him, sees every moment as a teachable, learning opportunity and calls and writes us notes w/ info on how the day went and how they are working w/ him. We were previously at another day school, which has received many accolades and praises, but can honestly say it doesn't hold a candle to the experience we've had at Valley Christian. The kids have structured but fun time during the day and our son comes home singing, smiling and so proud of what he is learning and his arts and crafts. The facilities are older but well kept. Children have access to a good sized outdoor play area and shade. We've had our older daughter in private school for a few years now and feel the fundraising expectations are actually very minimal at Valley Christian compared to that of other "like" childcare and private school facilities. I highly recommend this school and encourage anyone looking for childcare to take a tour, meet the staff and make your own determinations!

helllllo there fellow humans i am mr. john a teacher at this school. I like this school.
