    "We are refugees from our neaby public school (Northwood) and, after extensive interviews with private schools in the area, we chose MCS. This is our 3rd year there and we are very happy, very satisfied with the school. The TK and K and 1st class curricula are challenging yet teachers and their aides are still able to provide differentiated instruction to each child in class. The staff are so warm, and genuinely caring about the children and parents. Their kindergarten director, Ms Leta Leggit, has decades of teaching and research experience and you know instantly your child is in great hands. The school sits on a very large lot with several grassy fields for students' PE. They also offer a lot of after school programs like robotics, cartooning, soccer, etc and great, great day care staff. Above all, I feel 100% of the time that staff really want the very best for our children. I highly, highly recommend this school!"

    "This school has deteriorated DRASTICALLY the last few years! The atmosphere there is horrible. The teaching staff is great but the administration is incompetent. The superintendent is inept and has destroyed what was once an incredible school."

    "Milpitas Christian School has exceeded all our expectations. The students are challenged academically daily, but in a loving environment, where individuality is respected. Most importantly, the students are exemplary citizens, polite and cheerful."

    "MCS offers the best value for its price. I have yet to meet anyone who has ever heard of a school with an outdoor education program like MCS has. The 4th grade trip is an overnight, but 5th-8th go for 4 days and 3 nights per year. Students bond with each other and with their teachers during these experiences. I look forward to my son attending these trips. The 8th Grade DC trip is the perfect culmination of a fantastic educational experience. At MCS, students who are new to the school fit in fairly quickly. The kids are like a family, accepting everyone with open arms. By the end of the year, it's hard to tell who started just that year and who has been there since preschool. The technology education is streets ahead of what most schools offer. Students begin using Microsoft Office applications right away in 1st grade. They build on their skills more each year, get their own e-mail account (filtered) beginning in 3rd grade, and use more "cloud apps" like Google Docs as they progress through MCS. In middle school, they get to make movies and create photography projects. They create new content for Google Earth starting in 4th grade."

    "Milpitas Christian School has so many benefits that out shines other private schools. Outstanding Computer/technology Lab, and Music dept. Full time Learning lab teacher with onsite tutoring. After school classes that includes soccer, art, and soon coming Chinese school and more. I love that they have Bible study and parenting classes for the parents too. The quality of education is so complete. They not only focus on high academic standards but they focus on building the child's character. I highly recommend Milpitas Christian School."
