RSCA has been a lifeboat for our family. We, like many families, have a desire to make some aspects of homeschooling part of our family culture, but full-time homeschooling, for many reasons, is not possible. Rock Solid has given us the time at home and the structure and relationships of school. The atmosphere provides nurturing along with challenge. The lower cost and financial aid have made it possible for us to attend. We are so thankful for this school!

Our experience with this school has been only positive! The teachers are very qualified and offer individualized teaching for our kids. My daughter struggles with math, and due to Rock Solid’s small class sizes, her teacher is able to sit with her one-on-one every day to help her and track her progress. It is evident the staff love and follow Jesus and are genuinely interested in discipling the students. Our kids are learning so much and thriving at RSCA. It’s a great model, and Principal Curtis oversees a well-run school.

We love our school! The University model has been great for our family, a nice balance of in person school and homeschool days. The teachers are so kind, helpful and available. They are very organized and provide exactly what we need for our homeschool days. The homeschool days for the young grades only takes a couple hours (on average) to complete, so it leaves my kids plenty of time to play and continue to learn in ways they are most interested. In our experience all of the families and other kids have been so nice.

We love the gracious staff and teachers as well as the quality teaching that challenges and supports our kids! This is a great school that allows for flexibility in family time while still having the structure of school!

We love attending Rock Solid! It's been a blessing and the right fit for our son from academics to environment, to the inclusive community. The staff work hard at being involved and communicating clearly, and do that very well. They care so much about each student, and it shows. We also love the hybrid University Model, it works perfectly for us. We are starting our youngest son in the fall as well!

Rock Solid is the perfect hybrid between homeschooling and a traditional private school. We moved our daughter here in 6th grade after homeschooling. The teachers are passionate about pointing students to Christ. I love that our daughter is able to pursue sports with a more flexible schedule and doesn't have to be up for hours doing homework after practice. I also love that we get to spend more time as a family. It really is the best of both worlds!

Attend the HighSchool. The academic rigor is very good. NO Chromebook Learning! Our child has learned to be more self reliant, responsible and hard working in academics and has become much more self-motivated. The teachers work very well with students and always provide the extra time. The school also welcomes parents. They genuinely care about the students. The school also welcomes parents. The University Model is great. We like that the K-5 is very separate from 6-12 and hope more division continues between upper and lower grades. Christian focus is a perfect balance, learning history and personal growth through a Christian perspective and kind staff. We like the Service Learning Projects and Foundations of Identity too. The few concern are: wishing there were more students and electives and more creative work, not sure about the new administration and teachers for next year and sometimes the planning of events and communication and electives could be better. Despite the concerns, we are overall happy and plan to return.

School is very disappointing! Hearing from my child, most of the students don't act like Christians at all. When I was at the school volunteering last year, I heard the principal in the breezeway telling some of the students who's parents donated a lot of money and how much. I thought that was very unprofessional!! Also, the students who's parents gave a lot of money for fundraising, could get away with anything. The administration would turn a blind eye to smoking, drugs and everything else you can think of if the parent gave lots of $$$ or on the board. It's sad because I believe the school was great many years ago but today has lost all integrity for the sake of $$. When my child was in public school, they had more christian acting friends than at this school. Will note be returning to RS.Some of the teachers are great and some are terrible.

Rock Solid Christian Academy would be a great school. The majority of teachers are great. Some teachers are not Christians with traditional values. Your children will be interviewed so that leadership is convinced of their relationship with Jesus Christ. Teachers and students are either admittedly Christian or attend church and state that they are. The school does not hold to this principal in reality, though. The expectation that families are Christian is normal and I ascribe to this line of thinking. It should be a problem for families who have the expectation that the teaching will be Christ centered. In my opinion there is an effort at this school to undermine it's Christian principals and regardless of what some might say, this is important.

We have loved our children’s elementary and middle school experiences at RSCA. Our children have grown leaps and bounds, both academically and personally. The hybrid University Model has been ideal for our family!

Our experience has been nothing but positive. The teachers are dedicated to the success of the students and pour their hearts and souls into our kids.

Our experience has been great. My kids are challenged academically and are encouraged to learn how to be self-sufficient. The staff are really caring and use great communication with the parents and students. When our 3rd child is old enough, she will be attending as well!

As the assistant principal, I'd like to respond to some negative comments posted on GS lately. Yes, our students are much like students everywhere: they have the same anxieties, challenges, & problems every young person faces today. Just like ALL schools, we've dealt with students who've struggled, received discipline, & have been counseled. Sadly, there are times when some students are not a good fit & are asked to leave. We wish we could insulate all our kids from the pull of the world & would love to say we're perfect. That would be unrealistic. But we DO have wonderful kids at RS and we strive every day to provide a Christ-like environment where *qualified teachers work tirelessly to offer an outstanding education centered on Christ & the Bible. As we approach our 23rd year, we hope to reach many more families in the Denver area. If you're looking for a place where students are encouraged, prayed for, educated, discipled in Christ, AND greatly loved, we welcome you! (*Of our 13 teachers, 9 are licensed, 4 have M.A's, & 2 are working toward M.A.'s.)

Rock Solid is an awful school. The teachers aren't certified and the curriculum is bad. Our child has done so much better at public school and is better prepared for college. The school likes to think their students are better than public school kids, but they are doing the same things. We've heard from our kid that the high school students curse, vape, and sleep around. One of the students even had a makeout party at their home when their parents were gone. Just not good for a Christian school.

We are very pleased with the experience our son is receiving at Rock Solid.

School was good a few years ago but it has went downhill, and if the principal can't discipline the students, the students will continue to take over the school and the bullying will keep going.
