Private Schools

We've had a very discouraging experience at Parish. The administration in particular is very uninterested in individual students unless the parents donate big time, as in over $10K per year. The Head of School Dave Maniaco and his assistant Provost Michelle really could care less about the little kids. The school lacks cohesion. The Head of Lower school has to be at both campuses as she is over Prek-4th grade, so leadership is further split.

Best school in the world!!!

We love BCS. The admin, teachers, and staff have been such a blessing to our family. They truly care and love the children. They are very Christ-centered and biblical principals are incorporated into each subject when possible. The education is the best you can find imo. I love the way they teach Honorable Character and use positive discipline in every class. I appreciate that they have a dyslexia/reading specialist and help children individually when needed (like speech issues as well). They have the best art department and start band in 5th grade. There is no football (which I actually prefer:) but most other sports are available and quite a few extracurricular activities are available as well.

I've been going since pre-k and I love it! I wouldn't rather be anywhere else, but sometimes the work is possibly a bit much. Love ya Hockaday!!

My husband and I knew we wanted our daughter to attend a private Christian school and the search began. I had a long list of items I wanted in a private school and FBCA checked off every box. FBCA was our first choice and it has been the best experience for the entire family. We have never second guessed our decision. Our daughter has attended Fort Bend Christian Academy since kindergarten and is now in 6th grade. As a small child, our daughter was always shy and the child hiding behind one of us. However, from the moment she walked into FBCA it felt like home to her. As we left the open house and as a 5 year old, she begged to attend FBCA. To this day, she looks forward to going to school everyday. The teachers, administrations, and staff are amazing! We are truly a family. We laugh, cry, and truly carry each other's burdens. My daughter's teachers have not only been her teachers but have become some of my dearest friends. The school incorporates Christians values and teachings in all subjects and in all things. If you are looking for a private school, schedule a tour or attend an open house. You will not be disappointed!

Never went to this school but we played against them and were really nice and good at volleyball

Best school ever!

It an excellent school, very conservative and the people are very welcoming

Great staff. Great price.

Very unresponsive. Government buracy at it's best.

One year and haven't had any issues. My child is learning, teacher keeps us well inform. Administration has always been helpful also.

El bus de mi hijo dice pasar a las 6:47 y diario llega tarde mas de 10 minutos los cuales mi hijo pasa afuera en el frio y cuando trato de llamar nunca contestan icluso el niño dice que el bus no trae calefaccion. Esta situacion me enoja y me indigna

Absolutely the worst display of sportsmanship in I have ever seen in a sports leader. Overzealous behavior on court and with her team after game. The way she spoke to her girls was shameful. My children did not play against this coach at a game but I watched her rip another coach and then brag about it to her team she coached and that we are better than them. I was so glad my daughter did not have to play against her in the tournament. As a dad, my girls have it hard enough proving to boys they are good in sports the last thing they need is a female leader like that to look up to. Absolute disgust

i was told in could use the laser pointer in class on every Thursday on odd months, when i can into class on a Thursday of an odd month the teacher didnt even have the laser pointer in class. unacceptable

It's a pleasure to be invited to St. Andrew's Episcopal Upper School each year to mentor! The faculty and staff are professional and friendly and have a great rapport with their students. The students are respectful, very intelligent and diverse in many ways. I'm invited yearly as a guest artist mentor/teacher. I've taught the torchwork glass bead-making class in the art department at St. Andrew's Upper School since 2008. We use open-flame torches and molten glass to create handmade glass beads. My class accommodates 6 students at a time on torches throughout the school day. The students are responsible, disciplined and creative and a pleasure to teach. Each year's week long visit is enjoyable. I always look forward to coming back to this campus! Sharon Rico Young Glasswork Instructor/Mentor
