We love our experience at Wake Christian. From the very moment we open the door at carpool, you can feel how loved these kids are. The culture is strong and you feel welcomed from day 1. There are a lot of ways to stay involved and the communication with parents is unmatched. The teachers care about all aspects of their growth - from physical and social development to academic and faith-centered growth. The principals and school leaders play a huge role in making all aspects of the school run smooth and in a positive direction. Even when faced with adversity, they make quick/smart decisions and keep rolling. My daughter is reading two grade levels higher as a direct result of this school and its instructors (she entered in first grade reading on a Kindergarten level based on WCA standards). We cannot say enough great things about Wake Christian.

The worst part is probably the cliques and social aspect of the school. It can be very hard to make friends as a lot of people have been here since kindergarten. The food is catered from 5 different restaurants determined by the day. The best part is probably the academics they have a very high standard and offer lots of academically challenging classes.

There is a lot of unfair treatment towards kids, specifically children of school sponsors or ones with well-known parents. They can get away with a lot of stupid and bad things, but the administration will punish very severely good people with way smaller issues.
