"This is now our 3rd year at Water of Life. Our daughter is now in 1st grade and has loved each one of her teachers and the school overall. She never wants to miss! Academically, I worry a bit if we may be behind a bit in some areas, however, not enough for me to think about moving her. My comfort level at WOL has been incredible. The efforts made for a safe environment are felt each day. The personal relationships with the office staff, the teachers and other families is incredible. I don't have a public school expereince to compare our situation to but I know our daughter being in a Christian environment everyday is exactly where we want her!"

"I currently have a preschooler and a 1st grader at WOLCS. My first grader went through the preschool and Kinder. We love it. I have been a public school teacher for 13 years, and as a teacher I see great things at WOLCS. Being a public school teacher, I know that school has turned into all 'academic' and 'testing'. As a parent, I want my child well rounded. character is just as important, if not more important, than academic smarts. What will the world be like with just smart kids/adults, but no character? WOLCS helps develop character, morals, and of course Christian values and bible lessons. The staff has been caring and compassionate. There are several different after-school activities... my son does chess. He likes the hot lunches when he buys, and he even enjoys the day care after school when I am late. The Christian emphasis shines brightly!"

"Although WOLCS has been around for just a few years, it has grown every year in academics and spiritually. I love that the school is small. It has a very personal feeling to it with a wonderful office staff and dedicated teachers. Arden Schlecht, the Elem. Principal and Leslie Norman, the Preschool Director are very dedicated and strive for the best! I do not agree with any of the negative opinions given. I pray that WOLCS go up to the 6th grade so I do not have to leave! The tuition is reasonable as well. Givng our children a Christian education is both a privledge and sacrifice!"

"I first went to WOLCS and was waiting for a whole year on the waiting list for a position to open up for my daughter for pre-school. She got into the summer program and she loved it. The teacher was great and she had fun. In the fall i had gotten a new teacher to the school. The teacher wasnt what I had expected. My daughter was there for 6 months and still couldnt write her name and only knew a few letters. I has spoke with the pre-school director and she would not move her into another class. So I withdrew my daughter. Now being 6 months behind in school she is barely getting up to speed. I thought the situation could have been handled better but most of the teachers were great but i just got the bad one."

"Water of Life is an excellent school, with caring staff. My son has a very high level IQ, but also suffers from severe ADHD. His teachers have always gone the extra mile to challenge him academically, while nurturing him emotionally. There are some after school activities, but there is always room for improvement. The school now serves Pre-K through 5th grade, with small class sizes, and plenty of support staff. The office staff is amazing... how many secretaries can name each child in the school as they walk through the door in the morning? Tuition is reasonable, as are uniform costs. There is a large new library, a nice computer lab, and a brand new, large playground. The principal does not always seem to stay in close contact with teachers about classroom issues. He does try though. My son and I both love WOLCS!"
