My son came from out of State in 2000. He came from another Christian school from where we lived before. He was very please with his teachers and the administration of this school. He knew they loved him, prayed for him, and cared for his education. I have friends who sent their kids to school there that worked in the public school system. They said the kids at the public schools have absolutely no respect for the teachers and if they don't want to do their school work they don't. Now my sons daughter goes to Gospel Light. We are very happy with it. I was picking her up the other day and sitting in the school office, the students affairs office secretary was on the phone with a distraught parent whose child was not passing two classes. The parent was upset that GL would not pass their child onto the next grade because the Forsyth County School system would still pass them on. I mentioned it to my granddaughter. Her friend who came from the public school system last year overheard. He said that last year he failed all but two classes and he was still put into the next grade level. Gospel Light cares for our children spiritually as well as academically!

My grandson attends free kindergarten at the school and I am so impressed with everything. The teaching and the discipline is unsurpassed.

Terrible, terrible, terrible place. Some of the worst excuses for a Christian school. The students aren't accepting if you don't conform, and the teachers are of no help if you go to them with a problem. Don't even get me started on the ridiculous rules. They'll go ballistic if they see you holding hands with someone of the opposite gender under any circumstances.

I would love to give this school a exellent review but I must be honest. All schools will have their "clicks" and all schools have their bullys. In my opinion its how the staff handles them that makes it worth mentioning. And mostly it, for me, was handled much better then public schools. As far as the academics it is not any different if not lessend then public schools. I had heard the all growing up there that the academics were way more advanced then public schools, not true. When I married I was strongly impressed with how much more advanced my spouses knowledge base is. Not to mention the amount of different electives offered at public schools. Also the school punishment for students is often times based on who the student is and who their parents are. The school, I felt, pushed the dress code a little silly. I strongly agree with skirts being to the kee and shirts covering what they are ment to cover. But the school at that time did not allow any writing on the shirts. Why? Im not sure. And girls were not allowed to wear flip flops. Why Well then I was told because guys find girls heels sexy. But if your child wants to be in the ministry I feel this is the school for them.

I am so glad that my Dad And Mom sacrificed for me to go to Gospel Light Christian School. I had a hard time making good grades. The Teachers were the best anywhere around and still are. It is a tremendous School if you really want you children to learn and not just get passed then I highly recommend Gospel Light Christian School.Home Of The Lions. I was in the second Graduating Class of 1978. They have standards to help children turn out right .
