I thought the school was rather strict. After being there for 13 years, from kindergarten to 12th grade, I had no idea who I was outside of school. College has just been me exploring and trying to figure out who I am. The academics were very high though and I definitely felt prepared in that aspect for college. The only thing is the school places too much pressure and importance on grades.

Great foundational school, but lacks a bit in opportunities for higher studies in the modern stem fields. Humanities are excellent at this school. The teachers especially in those subjects are exceptionally educated and well versed.

Great school, best high school in NC for a classical liberal arts education. This school teaches students how to think autonomously and constructively. Most importantly, the emphasis on Christ is shown throughout all aspects of education and student life at Cary Christian school.

The bible teacher in 8th grade has told the students in the class that any non-protestant Christian will go to hell. He literally said the Catholic will go to hell.

There is no other school, in my view, like Cary Christian School. This school is the best thing that has ever happened to my children, who joined the school in their 8th and 11th grades respectively. The faculty and staff truly and deeply care for their students. They teach the students how to act w...

We are thankful for such a wonderful experience at CCS! The teachers love their students like their own. All subjects are taught from a biblical world view.
