West Gate Christian School Reviews

My daughter will graduate this year from West Gate Christian School and has been there since K-4, we also have a son there that is now in 5th grade. My husband and I have been very pleased with the school and how caring the staff are to all the children. Academically they have done really well and for that we are grateful to the school. West Gate Christian School is the way to go academically and morally.

West Gate Christian Preparatory School is a wonderful school. My student has attended West Gate for 9 years, since K-5, and plans to be a graduate of WGCPS. West Gate is a superb school, providing Christian based accredited academics. The professional Christian faculty and staff are dedicated to providing the highest quality Christian education and leadership to the students in academics, fine arts, sports and spiritual growth. West Gate s nurturing environment continues to enable my student to strive and perform well in academics, to care for others and to grow spiritually. I highly recommend sending your students to West Gate Christian Preparatory School.

I have a child that is in her third year at West Gate Christian Preparatory School. I have two children that have spent a combined 26 years and have graduated from Christian schools. I say this to demonstrate that I have extensive experience in Christian education. My wife is also a Teacher in a Christian school (unfortunately a different school) . The teachers at West Gate have demonstrated great sacrifice to provide our children with excellent academic and doctrinal instruction. The Bible tells us to bring up our children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord (Ephesians 6:4). This is why I have chosen to send my child to West Gate. A previous reviewer mentioned that 'thinking outside the box' was discouraged. I suspect that this is a reference to opinions that are contrary to the word of God and for this I am grateful.

Being part of West Gate has been a great blessing for my 4 kids. Academics are excellent. Our kids excel in every subject. We feel that they are getting well prepared for college. The spiritual teaching is outstanding. Their discipline and doctrine has helped keep our kids grounded in the truth of the Word of God. Bringing them to West Gate has been one of our best decisions.

The academics at West Gate are outstanding. The school scores very high on standardized tests. The teachers are well qualified, professional and caring. The atmosphere is protective and positive. If you are opposed to good rules designed to protect students from bad influences and from their own wrong desires, this school is not for you. Character development is just as important as academic success at West Gate. The principal is top notch. I highly recommend West Gate Christian School to those committed to a high quality Christian education.

My children have been at West Gate for 3 years. I am extremely happy with the school, teachers, and administration. The administration is very accessible and open to suggestion. My husband and I plan on keeping our children at WGCS for the duration of their education. I was recruited to the school by another very happy parent and will continue to recommend this school to other parents.

My child has been at westgate since k4 and will graduate tnext week. I would not have my child in any other school environment. Not only do the children get Gods word but they get the best education and they are shown love by this administration. From the janitors to the pastor, to the teachers and the principle. They love the students and the students love them. A quick reminder of this was when my child complained about how hard a teacher was and i made the mistake of agreeing, he then said ya but i like her and she is really smart. The principle is amazing. What other school could your child attend that your child forgets lunch and the principle drives them to wendys to get something to eat. yes they run a tight ship but my child begged me not to ever take him out.

My children attending this school for three years and I have to say I was not happy. They got a new principle and everything went down hill from there. The teachers are very unprofessional they do not know how to communicate with the kids they were always yelling and intimidating the children. That doesn't seem to be very CHRISTIAN if you ask me....and for those who say how wonderful it is you must belong to that church and drink a lot of kool-aid....because the school is losing students left and right so it can't be that great...If you are looking for a school with NO parent involvement and everything has to be there way no questions asked then this is the right school for you...For all the parents who really interested make sure you do all your homework and show up at different times. GOOD LUCK!!!

No, I did not owe any money to the school and I am not in any way trying to get 'back' at the administration. I am simply rating the school as I see it. I feel that the children aren't given the opportunity to think outside of the box. Everyone and everything is expected to be the exact same. Otherwise you are a 'problem.' My child, as a matter of fact, didn't have many behavioral infractions at all. He/she just was very unhappy because he/she felt like he/she was constantly being scorned for each and everything he/she did. There is a lot of negative reinforcement at this school. There needs to be more positive reinforcement at this school.

My two daughters have been been enrolled and West Gate since K3 and I thank God for discipline. That is what I want in a Christian School. My elementary daughter tested post high school in several subjects this year. I've seen the results, just ask the administation to open the test results for the school. This is a great school!

My four children have graduated from West Gate. I would have no other school public or private teach my children. The teachers and staff 'tell the truth' when discussing the children. They do not sugarcoat or tickle the ears of parents for good reviews. I have found nothing but love, care, and a real education. Academically, the school maintains the highest of standard. Morally, the children hear the truth from the Bible. After reading the complaints from the above, I wonder if they owed the school money, and are getting back at the administration by submitting a bad review. It is truly unfortunate for families who will see the results later when their children are grown. No ther place is better for a Christian education.
