Many teachers are concerned about their students, but they don't seem to notice things that are detrimental to their students' spiritual health. They also let the students get away with a bunch of things because they don't want to be the "strict teacher." I would like to see the teachers enforce the rules much more than they already do.

A great school with phenomenally education, a little strict in some aspects as far as rules go. And you do have to take Bible classes so if you are not religious it may not be the best option for you. The teachers and staff are all great and genuinely want the best for their students. Overall I was very happy during my time at WCA

I like WCA because it is a christ based school. it helps us students build a real relationship with christ. The overall of academics is also challenging also but if you don't understand it the teachers are always there to help you.
