Price Schools offers an excellent education and a safe environment. The teachers and staff are supportive and cares about the students. My child started at Price in preschool, he is now in high school. He has made life long friends; grown each year in Christian knowledge, academics and performing arts.

I still remember the first day at Price - I walked in the line of parents that followed our little kindergartener's to class on the first day of school. There were so many emotions running through my heart that day - but my baby was ready, and when she got to class, the first thing they did, as a group, was pray for one another, the parents, and everyone in their families. I exhaled - I knew my baby was in good hands. Fast forward nearly 25 years, and I am happy to say that our eldest, along with her younger sister and brother, received a firm, solid, and happy, experience at Price. They made lifelong friends, and have mentors that they can still reach out to through the wonderfully talented and loving staff. Price felt (and feels) like family. But it wasn't just our children that benefited from Price, my entire family did, as we (the parents) have also developed lifelong friends that we will be forever joined to. Price offer's more than just an education for the child - it is a network of Christian people that impact every area of your child's life. And it's a network that your family has access to no matter where you are, because the graduates are all over the world - in ministry, in medical, in legal, in entertainment, in education fields - you name it, there's a Price graduate there that you can reach out to. Price is definitely worth the investment!

I went to Price from preschool through high school. Their high academic standards, low student-teacher ratio, and Christian foundation thoroughly prepared me for studies at Stanford University and Southwestern Law School, as well as life beyond. I now send my daughter there too!
