My son was transferred from public school and started middle school, 6 grade. We are all impressed with the amount of knowledge he gained in a short period of time. Every teacher and every class is absolutely amazing. He loves Latin. He knows human anatomy: every bone and functions of soft tissue in Latin and English. The hands on application and presentation skills are out of this world. Every class is focused on oral and written excellence in delivering knowledge. He can explain in clear English each class. Language arts books and vocab is amazing. Math is way above what kids in public schools do. I seriously wish they can clone all these teachers. We are committed to this school and we pray that they offer High school programs in the future.
