WE ENROLLED OUR GAND DAUGHTER IN IVY LEAGUE CHRISTIAN ACADEMY FOR THE 2019-2020 SCHOOL YEAR. AFTER VISITING AND RESEARCHING THE OTHER CHRISTIAN SCHOOLS IN VA BEACH AND CHESAPEAKE WE ARE CONVINCED GOD LEAD US TO IVY LEAGUE CHRISTIAN ACADEMY. THE FACULTY AND STAFF SEEM TO AS CONCERNED WITH HOW CHILDREN LEAN-TO BE GOOD ADULTS AND CAN AS MUCH ABOUT THEIR SPIRITUAL WELL BEING AS MUCH AS THEIR ACADEMIC PROGRESS. WE ARE EXCITED TO SEE HER BLOSSOM EVEN MORE THAN SHE HAS ALREADY JUST MEETING THE OTHER STUDENTS STAFF AND PARENTS. SHE FEELS PROTECTED AND IS FREE TO ENJOY THE SCHOOL EXPERIENCE. THIS IS THE BEST KEPT SECRET IN CHRISTIAN EDUCATION IN HAMPTON ROADS. THE PRICE IS THE SAME OR A LITTLE LESS THAN SOME OF THE OTHERS AND MUCH LESS THAN THE BIG SCHOOLS. YOU OWE IT TO YOUR CHILDREN TO CALL AND VISIT THE SCHOOL AND SEE FOR YOURSELF. I AM A BLESSED AND PROUD GRANDFATHER LOOKING INTO A BRIGHT FUTURE FOR MY GRANDDAUGHTER.

My daughter has attended Ivy League for 3 years and I have nothing but wonderful things to say about the school. My husband and I have never had a problem with any of the teachers, the curriculum, homework or students. The teachers, along with The Dimino's instil values and morals in the children and they stay consistant with rules and guidlines. I recommend any parents that are looking for a higher educational Christian School to enroll their children in Ivy League Academy.
Endorse Ivy Leage Academy. Endorsements should be a few sentences in length. Please include any comments on:
- Quality of academic programs, teachers, and facilities
- Availability of music, art, sports and other extracurricular activities
