Private Schools

We love this school! We have experienced the infant and toddler programs and absolutely love everybody!

We have had three kids attend Immanuel Christian School all the way through the 8th grade. We have been involved with the school for 14 years. Our experience has been absolutely fantastic! Living out the gospel is at the center of everything that is done. Year after year, we were amazed by a humble yet highly competent staff who repeatedly demonstrate a love for Christ, a love for our kids and a passion to teach about God's world. Steve Danish is the head administrator - a thoughtful man of God who makes personal contact with each student a priority and communicates a love for the Lord through all that he does. His fascination with both the written and created revelations of God is contagious! Dale Pinkley is an excellent assistant administrator, full of energy, upbeat and leading with enthusiasm. Our then senior son in a public high school, recognizing the foundational gift he had been given, remarked once: "when I have kids, I hope I can send them to ICS." When parent and student alike are both THAT pleased - that is saying something indeed!

Great school, very well run. Wonderful preaching and friendly congregation offered at the church as well.

Our daughter started first grade at LCDS this year and thoroughly loves it! She enjoys having attentive teachers and being a part of a smaller class size. She enjoys reading, expressing herself with art, and having play-time with her friends. Her teachers recognized where she excels and have pushed her to new academic standards. They have encouraged her to read books and practice math problems that are well above the normal level and she jumps for the opportunity. Each day she comes home with new updates on what she is learning and shares her interaction with her classmates and teachers. Every day is exciting for her and she looks forward to being part of this LCDS school-family. We are so happy that she is there.

My kids love the school, they learn lots of different topics, not just math and science. They enjoy going to school. When they are happy, i am happy. I have to admit that there are some operational challenges since school is new but they are constantly improving.

After nine years of educating my son, I can tell you this is the best educational experience in the four state area. Teachers and staff will teach, guide and care for your child like their own. Your child will grow into a responsible, smart and caring individual while at Powhatan. Best investment of my money by far. Go Chiefs!

A wonderful school!

THEIR EDUCATION SUCKS BAD SO AS THEIR FOODS

It good

I love this school so much. It has taught me so many things that help me in the world beyond school. It is a really loving community and everyone is so close to one another!

Great school

TEACHERS AND FACULTY ARE AMAZING!!!

best school ever

Teachers are very helpful

Our family loves Medina Montessori! Every time we walk in the door we feel so welcomed! The staff is very helpful and warm. The teachers are very knowledgeable and are always available to answer questions about curriculum and child development. We are so blessed to have this school in our area!

A wonderful office of an excellent school!

No filter, this school is not the school for children of color. Your child's behavior is looked at as hostile if they hit a child, but if another child hits/pushes yours, it's playing and appropriate. They are freaking toddlers, learn to handle them or cut your class ratio. Then to top it off, they classified my child as defiant, violent behavior and a little of negative undertones terms used in institutionalized racism. Which when everyone else. Who has had interactions with him including other parents,teachers, etc. They all were shocked to hear such language being used of a child they were familiar with around and not around me. When we placed him in another environment there was no more hitting, no time-out, and no more negative name calling of him being a bad boy. While everyone with this school was not an issue...the owners concept of what a toddler should be and doing on a social emotional side is not correct. Instead of kicking kids who are testing as twice exceptional out of your program, you should be teaching them how to process emotions. So happy this nightmare is over. Update: Still happy that my child is no longer there. The owner attempted to threaten me to remove this review when I first posted it, but clearly I was not in tge wrong for my opinions (for the record I have over 150,000 views on my reviews). My child is now getting ready for an excellent school in the area that has a known history. To top it off, we have NOT had ONE incident of him hitting. He is back to his loving and caring self. He scored an overall score of 122 on his IQ test that placed him in the 93rd percentile for his age group, and would have scored higher if he didn't get bored with the puzzles. I update this and share this to encourage parents to not settle and always act in your child's best interest. If something doesn't feel right, its not right.

@Britney Burgess. Excuse me but I am pretty sure you're some fake troll trying to lower parents' interests on this school. You have used the same complaint on two schools including Browne Academy and Burgundy Farm. I would suggest you stop because what you're doing is wrong. Anyway, this school is fantastic and my cousins are having amazing experiences here. I plan on coming to burgundy next year, I will be in the 8th grade. Burgundy is such a genuinely great place, students get connected to nature through their Coopers Cove program and other events they have at their school. Burgundy also gets students engaged in learning using fun games to play. Some things students experience at burgundy include, swimming, gardening, sports, camping and making friends. Burgundy is a unique, diverse place that lets everyone express who they are and what their feeling. It is a vibrant place that is accepting of everyone, no one feels left out everyone is included. You should send your children here because it is one of the best things you would ever experience. - Jade Lancaster + cousins.
