All three of my kids attend this incredible school. Twin Oaks Christian School goes above and beyond to make them all feel seen and understood (academically and emotionally). One of the best things about this school are the smaller class sizes. This really helps each teacher and student value and respect one another through both their strengths and weaknesses. Being in a Christian environment has helped them develop a biblical worldview and mindset that I’ve seen play out in amazing ways through their relationships with one another, their peer groups and other relationships outside of school.Having a school that goes until 8th grade is a huge benefit for our family. This school has become more than simply a place to receive a wonderful education. As my son said to me recently, “Twin Oaks makes me feel safe and loved. It’s my home away from home!”

I can't speak highly enough about Twin Oaks Christian School. Sending our children there has been one of the best decisions we've made as parents. Not only does the school foster a loving and supportive environment, but it also provides top-notch education that integrates faith and learning seamlessly. The dedication of the teachers is truly remarkable; they go above and beyond to ensure every student thrives and feels loved. They offer an array of extracurricular activities, such as sports teams to musical instruments. The school's commitment to excellence is evident in every aspect of their operation. We feel blessed to be part of this community and are immensely grateful for the impact it has had on our children's lives.

The school has been an amazing blessing for my kids. The education they are receiving is top notch. They engage with parents and students alike in learning. One of my kids has some special learning challenges, and the school has consistently worked with us to accommodate his needs. The teachers and staff care about more than just our educational needs. They are also working to instill kindness, generosity, and service mindedness with the students. We would highly recommend Twin Oaks school.

For the most part this school is lovely but if you are seen as different you are not welcomed. The school is insanely homophobic and transphobic and the Bible teacher compared being transgender to having anorexia. The kids are also pretty insensitive I once heard some middle schoolers making mean jokes about autism and anxiety. The kids also get pretty stuck up on gender roles like the fact that men can’t have long hair or wear jewelry. In the end I just can’t recommend this school to other people, yes it may have a few amazing teachers and good curriculum it’s just not excepting to people different from them.

Our experience at Twin Oaks Christian School has been excellent in every way possible. We now have a middle schooler, a 3rd grader and a Kindergartner and we are watching each one of them blossom academically spiritually, socially and emotionally. Twin Oaks Christian School has played a crucial part in that development and we are so grateful!

This is an excellent school dedicated to developing character and academic successes in children!

Our overall experience has been excellent. I cannot adequately communicate how much this school has impacted our family in a positive way. The academics are excellent, the teachers are loving and provide students with a firm foundation in God's word, and the leadership is committed to implementing and refining a structure that will allow children to grow and serve God's kingdom. If you're looking for a school that will provide excellent education and give your kids a firm foundation in their faith, Twin Oaks is the place for you!

I love Twin Oaks Christian School! This is where I went as a child and I was never consider anywhere else for my children. I felt so loved when I went here and my children get to experience that love now as well. You will not meet kinder people than at this school. This is a Christian education at its best.

This school is biblically-grounded, well-staffed by the most caring teachers & administration, & committed to excellence day-in & day-out. We have had a terrific experience with all the teachers our children have had & love the art program! The athletics is also fantastic.

The school recently completed its re-accreditation process with Christian Schools International and North Central Accreditation. The outside accreditation team had nothing but superlative comments for the school, the staff, curriculum, and especially the administration/Head of School. Their comments included words describing TOCS such as"stellar", "Superlative", "Outstanding Educational Leadership" and others. The bottom line is that TOCS is one of THE top Christian Schools to be found in the region. Your child will do well to be a member of the student body, learning in traditional classroom settings, with all studies done within a Christian Worldview, taught by and led by Devoted Christian Educators - Certified Teachers, and Certified Administrator (HOS). I would also encourage you to take very lightly the few negative comments - not everyone fits everywhere - there are always a few who view the world and their children askew.Come and see for yourself what TOCS is doing - if it's right for you and your student, you will know and have peace about being a part of the TOCS community.

School is greatly overrated there are more hidden internal problems with a school of only 240 kids than you can imagine. Not a transparent school as you would expect for being Christian

We are so blessed to have found this school! This school has everything a parent could imagine for their child. The teachers are so dedicated and nurturing. The academics are superb. Within the classrooms, the teachers use differentiation which is hard to find in a private school. We are really amazed at how much the teachers and the principal knows about your child. There are so many extras within this school that encompass sports, computers, American heritage girls, choir, music, Spanish,etc.... The academics are rigorous and help your child develop the correct study skills to advanced them later in life. They use an average of 75% on standardized tests as a comparison to challenge the academics. Not only are the academics great for average, advanced, and challenged students, the teachers make class fun. My daughter has a story about how fun her day is on a daily basis. We couldn't be more happy with our choice of school.

Twin Oaks Christian School has been an amazing blessing to our family. My children love school, their teachers are creative, dedicated and they take time to nurture and pray for the children. Cathy Jones is s strong leader for the school and works tirelessly to create the strongest "three legged stool" between school, church and home that she can. From elementary on up to middle school, my very different children and their very different needs have been more than met at every stage. - Carrie Johler, parent

We are so thankful for Twin Oaks. We love the feel of community. The teachers are caring, loving, and truly care about the needs of each individual child. We love all they have to offer for our children- they are getting a wonderful, strong foundation for their future.

We removed our children from this school. Very dissatisfied with the leadership of the school. It has lost its traction in enrollment for years due to this point. We were very blessed to find a Lutheran school in Ellisville that is phenomenal. (My kids do miss the hot lunches.)

Amazing school. Amazing teachers. My son loves going to school every day. Watching the older kids interact with the younger ones always puts a smile on my face.
