Our kids can`t wait to go to school everyday because they love their teachers and friends so much! One of our daughters entered CHC behind in reading. Thankfully, she received the individualized attention she needed and is now a confident student reading at grade level. We are grateful for CHC and can`t imagine our girls going anywhere else!

Our sons attended and graduated from Cherry Hills Christian Elementary and Middle School. We are FOREVER grateful for the foundation and skills that they learned. Our sons went on to high school with a firm foundation in Christ and an excellent work ethic. They were appropriately challenged academically and grew so much in knowledge and skills. They were both placed in high school honors classes and were able to graduate from college in less than 4 years! (Definitely paid back the tuition cost tenfold!) That was huge, however, the most important piece for our boys was the service HEART of the school. Our boys experienced serving in many local, national and international ministries. What a TREASURE to have those years in such a solid school! We cannot thank CHERRY HILLS CHRISTIAN SCHOOL enough!

Cherry Hills Christian School is excellent and my children absolutely love it! The teachers are outstanding and they truly integrate Biblical perspective into all aspects of learning. The academics are rigorous and the school culture is positive. Students have art, music, P.E., technology and library every week as well as a variety of after school activities to choose from. The school values missions and serving others which has had a tremendous impact on my children.
