Great church

Shiloh Church is a wonderful place to consider homer!

Great school!

This school is a good option because the teachers know what their doing and there really nice. I also have been going here my whole life. So I pretty much know everyone

We just moved to NC a year ago and I decided to put my son in this school, It's been the best school he has ever attended! I'm really picky with schools even more because of the way life is. But man how comfortable I feel him being there. He always struggled never was a A-B student. Since he started at this school he has all As. I truly feel that the teachers teach a different way and incorporating GOD has made him succeed. He has such a big love for the Lord. Great school!

This is a great School

Our first year at LCA. Three Children come home and leave excited each day. Caring teachers and staff.

I thank the Lord that I had the privilege to attend this wonderful school.

This Website is Fantastic ! Matt & Sue Artz you have done a great job.

I have two children enrolled in HPMS for four years. We've been very happy with the curriculum they use, the staff, classroom materials and layout, playgrounds, gardens, even social events and the fundraisers that they host . They don't just teach our children academics, they build strong ,confident, caring and happy children. They learn how to cook, to clean, take care of pets, garden, and I could go on and on. My children wake up in the morning excited to go to school.

I'm also Atheist

Jarvisburg Christian Academy (JCA) is a school with their heart in the right place. They want to give families the option for a Christian-based education and children a safe environment to learn in. Unfortunately, its administration and teachers goes about giving it in the wrong way. JCA's educational program is mediocre at best. It focuses more on the Christian-based element of its lessons rather than the education itself. As a former student, had I not been in the public school system for my first two years of high school I would not have been prepared for college. When I first toured the school, they promised me that I would strive in my scholastic endeavors. I was promised that I would become better at math, be able to jump start my college education, and gain a class-A education in general. I did not excel at math, in fact, I felt that I actually down-graded my understand in math. I passed my math classes my the skin of my teeth with the help of a tutor my family hired. I put all of my early-collegiate achievements on the fact that I hurried to finish my senior school work early (so that I could escape the school as fast as possible.) My writing skills were NOT developed nor furthered at JCA, but in their defense, they also did not suffer from my education there. Granted, I did receive higher marks in my classes. I hold that accomplishment to the fact that the classes were easier and it was easy to play the system. As for the administration, I am HIGHLY DISAPPOINTING AND INSULTED by the way they conducted their school, especially in relation to myself. Please, take note that I was a rebellious student. I spoke my mind too much, and did not conform to their belief on what was a "good student." The admin paid more attention to your conformity to their social beliefs rather than your actual grades. Not only did they nit pick broken rules (sweaters with logos, popped collars, sandals, etc) they bent the rules to fit their desires. For example, a student that was not myself, wore leggings with the Chapel Uniform and was given a demerit for a rule they literally had just (in red pen) penned into the dress code. The school liked to play favorites too. For the graduation ceremony, my name was omitted from the program. When confronted about it, they said they forgot to put it in. There were only three- including myself- students graduating. The two other graduates were allowed to speak during the ceremony, but I was told that there was not enough time for me to give a speech. Although the middle school teacher was allowed to sing a special graduation song to us. Our teacher gave out special "mock awards" and little gifts to the class. I was also omitted from that. What bothers me the most about this outright dislike for me, was that the school continues to use my good grades and collegiate achievements to promote their school. That was my personal experience, but I know for a fact that other students felt persecuted by JCA as almost half of their student population left due to dissatisfaction in their conduct and education. These people are closed-minded conservatives who do not treat people equally. I am deeply disturbed by the way they are handling their school. They lack organization, and professionalism. I wanted to go to this school so that I could achieve a better education, but I am only ashamed that I participated in the school's program. I wold not recommend this school unless there is a change in education program and a refreshment in the administration. I thank you for reading my review and hope that it helps with your decision on sending your student to this school. Holland Buchert, graduate of 2014

Teachers are wonderful. I love that our child is learning about Jesus and has a positive environment that supports our personal beliefs.
