It is a small but safe campus, there is a security guard on sight daily. The school has some of the best lunches such as chick-fil-a and panda express. It is a Christian school with a positive atmosphere. If you drive there are limited parking spots and not always enough for everyone. We do not have any type of fields on campus, but are sports divisions are fair. Extra curricular programs such as a mechanic class would be a nice a edition to the school.

Decent school. Location could be better. School seems dated in some of its methods. School environment is good enough, but due to the fact that most student came from the middle school, it is harder to fit in if you transfer from anywhere else.

It's a pretty decent school. I loved going here. I wish the campus was bigger so we could have more things to do. I also wish we had more activities and clubs, but they're doing the most with what they can do so I applaud them for that. Also three days of school a week. Nothing can beat that. I wish they're math teachers were better because I failed most of their tests because I don't understand any of it. Good thing I'm not majoring in engineering or stuff like that. But it's a good school. Worth a tour for sure.

I teach college science and have known some of the teachers at Foothills Christian High School for over 10 years When my sons were having academic struggles at public high school, I enrolled them in FCHS.

The first bad review from a student is farther from the truth . This school fully prepared my kids for college and really grounded then with integrity and responsibility. They are also very strong in their faith and love for God because of the bibilical teaching their. As a parent I would highly rec...
