School Reviews

We moved into the area and didn't know which school would be a perfect fit. We decided to go with FR and have absolutely had a wonderful experience. We love everything this school has to offer!

Front Range Christian School has a staff that makes personal investments in their students. We placed our daughter in FRCS as a Freshman. She attended a public middle school that seemed to chew her up and spit her out and honestly we felt like we lost so much of who she was. We prayed relentlessly over High School being a better experience and God showed off with the experience she had this year at FRCS! On the last day of school, I listened to a staff member affirm her in a way that was a tangible answer to our prayers. We have prayed that people would partner with us in helping her-not to build her ego-but to affirm to her who she is IN Christ and because of CHRIST! And I listened to this teacher tell her the very things we had prayed that God would show her this year. FRCS is not looking for perfect people nor is it being run by perfect people...but it is run by grace-filled, compassionate, God-loving people. It is a school showing kids how to love God and love others and how to have a Christian worldview in all that these students do. We could not be more pleased with the year of growth our child experienced this year!

My children recently started attending FRCS after being in the public school system for 6+ years. They are thriving! They have developed great relationships, are being challenged spiritually and academically, have teachers they love and who genuinely care for them, and are both involved in extra-curricular activities (theater, music and sports). It's been a great investment for us...we love Front Range Christian School!
