This is an excellent school. The principal and teachers are is very interested and involved in the students academic and character development. The teachers are qualified and well trained. The school has a history of producing great students, some who have matriculated to specialized high schools, over the decades. Many professionals in the work force have been educated at this school. This school builds a strong foundation within its students academically, mentally and spiritually. Faculty support and encourage the students. The classes are small and the students get a lot of much needed attention. My child attended this school for 10 years (Pre-K - 8th Grade) and just recently graduated in June 2020. I also attended this school and it was a pleasure to see experience that good quality private elementary education still existed for my child's generation and hopefully generations to come.

0/10. It was awful and I feel ashamed to say I attended this school.I keep trying to figure out why it’s still open and how the faculty call themselves Christians.

I LOVE THIS SCHOOL for my son! He's learning about the Bible, he's a year ahead in his academics, he's made friends within his class, and he's happy. The staff is open to new suggestions from parents and families. If you can afford it, I would recommend this school for everyone!

This is an excellent school with small classes, caring and well trained teachers, and a strong emphasis on math, reading and science. In addition to the basics, children are strongly encouraged and supported in the development of their musical, artistic talents. Excellent creative arts program for all age groups. I was amazed at the oratory skills several of the young men displayed at a school event I attended. Two of them, who identify themselves as future pastors, brought the house down with their oration of Dr. Martin Luther King s I Have a Dream speech. There is something very good happening at that school and everyone in Brooklyn should know about it. The tuition is also very affordable.

Worst Private school ever!!! My daughter attended for the first time. This school is one big dis-organized mess. I do not see how it stays open. Do not put your children in this school. * The Principal is not a great leader, often late and unorganized *The teachers are always late *The office opens late. *Children roam the halls unattended *When teachers are absent kids are left to just play *They are under staffed *Lunch program did not start until almost 3 months into the school year. *For the entire year only one report card for the first quarter. *Programs are always un-organized. *On last day of school secretary was absent. *On the last day of school report cards were not ready. *Parents show up upset to meet with staff / principal that does not return phone calls and emails There is a summer camp * The summer camp is play camp. The children are just left to play do not waste your money. There is no AC in the class rooms. Only the Principal's office and secretary. No report cards were given at the end of year. This School is very poorly run and operated.
