We haven't stopped raving about our time at Abundant Life! It has such a warm, welcoming, caring, and wonderful staff. Our kids flourished and made great progress. We would still be there had we not moved out of state. Our new school district is wonderful, however, it doesn't compare to ALCS- nothing does. Our girls made great friends, loved the Christian environment, and thrived. I would strongly recommend ALCS to anyone looking for a new "home" for their kids. Truly a special place!

First and foremost, we`d like to thank ALCS for the common sense, balanced approach to keeping our children safe without disrupting their education and social well-being during COVID-19. Our child joined the school in 6th grade, and we have found it to be a nurturing environment where he has the freedom to learn without many of the distractions found in public schools today. The teachers make a conscious effort to explore different teaching methods to keep the children engaged. This includes taking the children outside whenever possible to learn. ALCS has met our overall expectations and we`ve been happy with the unwavering God-centered approach, teachers - who are proving to be exceptional, administrative staff that brings it all together and organizes some incredible events, and the Youth Group that`s offered on Wednesday nights for middle schoolers. Pastor Sam and Theresa do a fantastic job with the children and it`s certainly a favorite along with the off-campus events they organize for the children throughout the year.

Our family had been blessed to begin attending Abundant Life when our children were infants, and they are now both attending the K-8 school. The loving care of the staff and the quality of the education our children have received is excellent! We especially like the chapel times, Christmas and Art shows, and After school programs. The community of families we have met here are kind and supportive and have become close friends.

Abundant Life is a great place. My children grew academically, socially, and spiritually at Abundant Life. We loved the small class sizes, music classes, art classes, gym classes, and library classes. They learned Spanish and age level technology. In middle school, they had access to iPads and Mac laptops to reinforce their class curriculum. Throughout the school year there were many fun extras like Harvest hoedown celebration, Thanksgiving Feast, Christmas program and an art show. The children can display their God-given talents through the specials that are offered. My boys love playing sports and could participate in the middle school soccer and basketball teams. The teachers and the leadership are loving, supportive, and dedicated to each and every student.

It takes a village. I am truly blessed to have Abundant Life as part of my village. My children received an excellent and challenging education at Abundant Life. They grew academically, socially and spiritually. They were beyond prepared for high school. Yes, my children attended from pre-k through 8th grade. We loved Abundant Life. God is good. We thank Abundant Life for an outstanding education.

Great teaching practices. My son is now in high school, ALCS prepared him greatly for the preparatory high school he is now attending. He has excelled academically, socially and spiritually. I cannot say enough about ALCS. It is an honor to have ALCS teachers and staff be a part of my son's life.
