I loved this school. It took me in under its wing and I felt like I would never leave. I wish I could go back.Sincerely,Colby Geyer

We home-schooled our children for several years and decided they needed something different. So we sent our son to this school as a 7th grader. This has been a wonderful school and experience for him. We are planning to send his younger sister next year also. They show kindness and love. I can't speak to every teacher being the best or anything, but the facility is nice and our son enjoys it. God is a focus and the principal is great. The teachers and staff I have met make me feel welcome. I wish my finances were such that I could work there because it is a great environment. Portland is much more reasonably priced then some other christian schools and I feel my son is getting everything he needs from a school.
