As a current teacher here for the past six years, I know we have a godly, professional and unified staff who give their lives to raise up a generation of Christian servants for His Kingdom. Our staff members love the students and families of KCS. As a parent of four Keswick students, I am pleased with the impact the staff and student body have had on my children. They are grounded in their beliefs while also being well prepared for college and their future careers. If you desire a true partnership in discipleship and training your children, then KCS is the place for you.

Love this school. Have 3 of my children there and each are flourishing both spiritually and academically. Family like atmosphere with teachers who truly care and push them to reach their God given potential.

Keswick is special. Since their admissions policy is that at least one parent be a believer in Jesus Christ and part of a church, the atmosphere/student body is so different and like-minded here than at other area Christian schools that have an open enrollment. I know because I went to two of them before my parents finally let me come back and graduate at Keswick! I now have my daughter here. There is a welcoming, homey feel on this campus and the fact that the teachers, administrators, and families truly love and serve the Lord SHOWS.
Endorse Keswick Christian School. Endorsements should be a few sentences in length. Please include any comments on:
