I have been going to this school for almost a year now, and it has been a very positive experience. The teachers are dedicated and they seem to really have a passion for the subject that they teach. The students are kind and friendly and they made me feel welcome as a new freshman. Even though the homework can be burdensome, I have learned new study techniques and the school has resources for if you feel overwhelmed. And I feel that this school has helped me grow in my faith as a Christian, I highly recommend it!

We have had both of our children at The Geneva School since Kindergarten and they are now a Senior and a freshman! What a gift for them to have had such a Christ centered environment in which to learn about the world. They haven’t learned a laundry list of facts and dates to pass some test, but rather have learned to think about all kinds of subjects and how they all connect and contribute to their life in real ways. To learn how to learn is a priceless outcome of a Classical Christian education and we can’t recommend getting it from any other school than The Geneva School!

For our family, The Geneva School was like trying on a wedding dress and finding "the one." When you know, you KNOW that it's right! When we stepped through the doors of Geneva several years ago, we were thrilled to find a rare gem -- a place where "old school" academics (writing in cursive, practicing violin, memorizing Bible verses etc.) and values intermingle with the exciting opportunities and activities the new school campus provides. Look beyond the gorgeous new facility, however, and you'll find raw, real, authentic community. Moms form Bible studies and have dinner get-togethers, book clubs and more. Tons of school dads participate on field trips and in class events. Grandparents are invited onto the campus. Teachers truly care for their students -- their hearts, not just their minds. When a need within the school arises however small like an ask for prayer, or a big like a rental home because a hurricane took yours, the community rallies and responds without hesitation. Simply put, Geneva is a family! Students at Geneva do not blend in or are treated like just a number. They are valued, loved, encouraged, instructed with the highest quality education, and instilled with character traits that will take them far! We are so thankful.

The Geneva School is a phenomenal place to raise your children. Not only is the new campus stunning but the environment of faculty and staff as well as parents is exceptional. My kids love going to school each day.

Incredible school with a real love of learning is taught. Children respect teachers. Teachers love on children. The environment is so loving and warm and Christ-Centered. If you ask around the community about the Geneva School, people rave about the school. When we were looking at other schools several other schools I asked about no one raved over the other schools. This sold me on the Geneva School. It is truly the real deal.

Very good in lower school. Upper school teaches that children who are born gay and engage in a loving, long-term relationship are going to hell. We could not let our kids continue to be taught that message.

Outstanding! This is our 8th year at the school and it just keeps getting better. I am confident that I have made the best choice for my children, so that they may go into the world with confidence, grace, and faith.

We found The Geneva School when one of their students came to our youth group. When I heard of all the wonderful things they offer for their students we had to tour the school! In that small tour I was hooked. I saw students engaged, teachers who visibly loved their jobs and a staff of friendly, smiling faces. We are now 4 years in, 2 kids and a third will start K4 in the fall ,and still as (actually more) in love with the school as we were during the first tour. My kids are learning to “love learning”. They come home excited from school everyday. They are sad if they are sick and can’t go. They are experiencing their school journey with joy,love,kindness patience and so much more from the teachers,staff and administration at Geneva. Call, take a tour, I know you’ll fall in love as well!

Our family has been at The Geneva School for 4 years. We have 2 children and we couldn't be happier here - our kids have actually tried to fake being well to go to school, they love it so much. Geneva often cites the Keates quote, "Education isn't the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire." It's true here. They honor childhood and graduate scholars who love learning and have their choice of universities. I'm thrilled we found it at the beginning of our educational journey with our kids!

After 4 children & 5 different school models, we have concluded that The Geneva school far surpasses any other educational institution in this area. The teachers are caring, competent and the classical curriculum encompasses both the academic & the character needs of children. We are thrilled with the school & are excited to enjoy our new 40 acre sports complex!!

The Geneva School is truly a unique learning environment! The classical education model is far superior to anything I've personally experienced and the people God called to teach at this school have all exceeded my expectations. My children's love of learning just seems to be strengthened year after year. Fostering community within the school has always been a priority and it shows in the friendships between the kids as well as the parents. You don't just attend The Geneva School, you belong at The Geneva School.

We absolutely love Geneva. This is our 3rd year here and each year has been equally wonderful for our kids. The teachers and students have an amazing relationship with each other, proving that you can be loving and kind but still demand and deserve respect. I honestly feel that the classical education my children are receiving is the absolute best of the best in the Orlando area. They come home each day with substantial knowledge that just amazes me. They are taught to think, not just accept. They are also taught to respect one another and it shows. We love Geneva. Period.

Geneva has been one of our best parenting decision to date. I have two boys who are very different both academically and socially, and Geneva has proven time and time again to be a good fit for both. I have never once been worried or concerned when I drop them off at school because I know they are safe - physically and emotionally. It's nice to know that we have found a school that reinforces the same moral ideals as we strive for at home.

I have twin senior boys and a freshman daughter at the Geneva school. They are all incredibly different and yet Geneva has been the perfect school for all of them. The deep discussions they have at school often spill over into our dinner table. In addition , each of my kids has played on athletic teams that have gone to state or regionals. If they went to a larger school, they may not have had that opportunity. While my mama heart breaks that my twins will be leaving Geneva after this year, they are so well equipped for college. Choosing The Geneva School was one of the best parenting decisions we have made.

COMMUNITY - The Geneva School is truly a community that encourages real relationships. It is one of the many "things" that sets this school apart from ALL the other private Christian schools. Teachers invest in each student. My 10th grade daughter says, "my teachers know me as well as my mom." The love for learning is fostered at such a young age at Geneva. As the mom of a Senior, the end product is so worth the investment. He is more than prepared for college. Having a HS college counselor spend individual time with each senior applying to colleges and writing college essays, has taken so much of the workload off the parents. The Geneva school truly inspires students to love beauty, think deeply, and pursue Christ's calling.

We started out with our child in an A rated public school. We had a terrible experience. She would cry every day because she did not want to go to school. Her teacher yelled at them and they rarely received recess because the class was so bad. They had to sit inside with their heads down for playtime. They were doing standardized testing 6 weeks in. They were not doing phonics, only 100 plus sight words to memorize. She hated school and learning. We are so thankful that we found The Geneva School. I fell in love the day I took a tour of the facility. We pulled our daughter out after 3 months in public school and enrolled her at The Geneva School. We immediately saw a change and improvement in her. After her very first day, she said it was her favorite place and she never wanted to go back to her old school. And they were even able to play outside, twice in one day! The teachers and staff are beyond amazing! They care so much about each child. My daughter is now reading and learning Spanish! She cries when she doesn't go to school. The Geneva School has dramatically changed our lives for the better. It is worth every penny.

I have three children, two of which attend The Geneva School (the third is only three). We have had a wonderful experience. The teachers are very encouraging and instill a love of learning into all the students. My kids get very upset if I make them stay home when they are sick because they don't want to miss anything. I am an engineer and my wife is an algebra teacher at Florida Virtual School so education is very important to us. The classical model encourages kids to wonder and think (something I have found lacking in many young adults). The academics are rigorous and the community is welcoming. My wife and I love Geneva and cannot recommend this school enough. I did see some negative reviews about the small campus size and promises of new construction. The school is just now completing the horizontal infrastructure on their new ~40 acre campus and should begin vertical construction in the next year. I would encourage anyone to research classical education and take a school tour of Geneva.

I cannot say enough great things about this school. As an alumni, and now parent of students there, I have found it to be the best education Orlando can offer.

I graduated from The Geneva School in 2008 after attending from 2nd grade. Geneva helped me become a person who knows how to think and loves to learn. Now in the "real world" of a job and family, I realize more and more everyday the effect my time at Geneva has had on my life.

As an alumni of The Geneva School, I could not begin to speak enough about it. From the strong, family-like community, to the quality of the teachers and curriculum, I would not change a thing about my time at The Geneva School. The teachers are engaged, smart, helpful and constantly trying to improve their teaching. As a student, I was continually engaged in discussion and called to think critically about questions pertinent to living as a Christian in our post-modern world. The Geneva School has changed my life and opened up countless opportunities for me. During my senior year, I was offered admission to several competitive programs within the field of engineering including Georgia Tech, Rice, and Carnegie Mellon University before ultimately choosing the Computer-Based Honors Program at the University of Alabama. I am still in touch with my teachers and classmates from my time at Geneva who continue to mentor me professionally and in my faith. I could not say enough about the school and I am honored to continue to be a part of The Geneva School's thriving community.
