  • My daughter attended BNCS during the 2006-2007 school year as Pre-K (K-4). Not only did she come out of her shell, but she has excelled in everything. I have a different child! The entire staff is wonderful and very loving. The school is small enough (K-4 - 8th) that all of the staff and students know one another. As a four year old, my daughter left knowing some Spanish, how to read, how to tell time, basic measurements with a ruler, Bible verses, basic addition, etc. One could not find a better learning environment then BNCS (now Firewheel Christian Academy). Plus, the fees for education and before and after school care are cheaper then her sitting around at day care looking at other children. A+++++++++++++++++++
