Now I can say this, the staff and faculty know who Jesus is. There is a problem with the students there. They don't know when to shut up. I don't want to down my school though, because YES we do have computers. Windows 8 to be exact, Yes the teachers have a degree in what they are teaching. This school is not for, or should i say not intended for Camelot Academy material students. You should send your child to this school. Take it from me, it is a heap better than the public schools in the area. When the students have problems, Pastor Demps, or any other of the staff will feel free to pray for you. They will help you. I'm not saying that the reviews that people posted about this school a few years ago weren't true, because they are true. This school is really improved. I'm attending there now and I am a straight A student. Let me tell you, the work is not that easy. They make it challenging, because this school whats you to make something of yourself. I give this school five stars.

We had both our kids in this school since 2008 and that was the biggest mistake we have ever made. The teachers are not qualified to teach kids who require special education. The first 2 years they promised that they were going to get state funded help for the kids and when they did, our kids were only getting 45 mins of tutoring. The school is full of kids who have disciplinary issues and it affects that kids who are there to learn. The school has zero technology (computers) and the kids aren't getting the education they deserve. I will say that they were good about teaching our kids the Gospel of Jesus Christ but they didn't provide an exceptional education for our kids. My kids are now back in public school and have been put back two grade levels because they are so behind i their academics. Unless this schools gets more qualified teachers there, I wouldn't send your kids there!

This school lacks the resources to provide an adequate education. Most of the children there had issues with the public school system and thus seems to be more of a reformatory, than a christian school. The children fight, visibly show their tatoos and school officials do not seem to be attentive. The school facilities lack adequate technology, so that children will be able to compete with counterparts from other schools. There is a shortage of teachers and other staff and the overall school environment is totally substandard. If you care about your child/children, I would not send them to this school. There is more of an emphasis on sports than education.
