The Foothills Experience

Parent & Student reviews

I like Foothills for many reasons. The main one is going to school only 3 days a week. I think this makes me more independent and ready for the college schedule. Also the teachers are very supportive and look out for the best for you. I love going to a school where you can freely talk and worship God with people that want to do the same.

Scarlett (Student)

I love FCHS! I can really tell that this is my teachers’ ministry. They really care about what I learn and about me. I know they are praying for me and I can always go to them and pray with them. I know they will do whatever it takes to help me.

Student

I like the 3-day schedule because I am a more independent worker so the independent days’ work well for me. The teachers are willing to work with us when we are gone and miss days or don’t understand a concept. I love being on ASB, it is a great experience and I have made many more friends.

Danielle, Student

As a parent it is extremely comforting to know that my child is seen as a whole person and is truly cared about. Not only are my child’s academic needs met, but his emotional and spiritual needs as well. As a teacher myself, I know that students must form positive relationships with teachers that will, in turn, hold them accountable. We love that the student body respects one another. Not everyone may be friends, but everyone is respectful of one another. Thanks so much!

Parent

As a parent of 4 kids, with two in the high school and two more starting in two more years, my thoughts about Foothills Christian School are simple. I find the “cost” of their Christian education here much cheaper than the potential “cost” I would have to pay if they went to free public school. My children are happy, educated and plan to send their kids (when the time comes) to private school as well.

Parent

I love being able to get profound Biblical insight on any questions I have. I love that people are always willing to make sure you’re doing OK. I love the passion that each teacher has for their subject.

Tavonte, Student

I like that FCHS is 3 days a week; it prepares me for individual work in college, allows you to have a relationship with God at school, has an all-around nicer staff and students compared to public school, close knitted school, chapel is awesome, good lunches, ASB works hard to make school run.

Madison, Student

FCHS is an awesome school. My son is happy and enjoys friendly classmates. Teachers are so helpful, professional and funny too. I am so thankful and grateful that I enrolled my son at Foothills where there is faith and trust in God.

Parent

FCHS is amazing because I can express my faith freely. All the teachers care about the students and want them to do well. Retreat is one of my favorite things that FCHS does. It is an opportunity to grow closer to God and grow closer to everyone at school. FCHS is a safe place to go to. I have met friends here that encourage me in my walk with the Lord.
