My daughter attended Firewheel for a year before we moved out of state. We really liked the school. Her teacher was wonderful and truly cared about the children in her class. My child grew in confidence during her time there, and I found the staff to be extremely helpful and flexible in supporting our post-divorce family. She was ahead when she returned to public school the following year. This is a great school. The only update I would have wanted to see is how tardies are handled for younger children. If I was running late for any reason, she would be so ashamed of getting a late pass and reprimanded at the door. I thought this was odd for such a small child who is going with the flow. I think the person who did this has moved on, though. The 2nd grade teacher is awesome!

Firewheel Christian Academy has made a positive impact on my kids. My son is in PreK4 and he is learning how to read. The teachers have been encouraging and patient and have provided feedback to help guide me as a parent. My 2 daughters (3yrs and 1 yrs) attend the Mother's Day Out program twice a week and love it. They ask if they can go daily.

My son loves this school! He is already looking forward to 6th grade next year. He really enjoyed soccer, basketball, choir, acting and now track this year. Coach Broadwell is our favorite! The parent teacher fellowship has had many activities to enjoy as well! Ms. Chapman, the principal, is amazing! She delivers discipline with love and ensures the academic standards are high. Class sizes are small and children get the attention they need.

I am a parent of a 5th grader at Firewheel Christian Academy. I love this school! The focus on academics and small class size really make this school shine. The teachers are caring and the parents support what they are doing. The Christmas pagent was so much fun! If you are looking for small class sizes and a Faith based education you can't go wrong here!
