Anton have insights on the quality of education it provides?

My wife went there for her last 2 years of school. Its a mixture of kids whose parents home schooled them and wanted them to get some "real school experience" before going off to college, kids who caused too much trouble to stay in public school, and kids whose parents thought they would get shanked at mayde creek so faith west appeared to be a safer alternative. Can't really speak to the quality of education, but everyone who i've met that's graduated from there seems to be functioning humans.....not that i set the bar high.

so which category was the wife?

Ted Cruz graduated from there.

Seriously though, we looked heavily at this school but when it came time to fill out the paperwork there was some issue with corporal punishment. I cannot recall now and the policy may have changed but after clarification from teh school it boiled down to "We never have problems with kids, but if we do we will administer corporal punishment and you cannot be admitted unless you sign the form allowing it". It basically rubbed us the wrong way.

Since I am the only one that will be beating my snowflakes asses, we went elsewhere.

Otherwise the school looked like it had a lot going for it, it had what appeared to be a solid Ag Program, which was a huge selling point.

Honestly, I think you owe it to yourself and your kids to go check it out and make an effort to find out if its a good fit for you before you get too skewed from biased replies here.

I thought he went to second baptist.

Cruz graduated from Second Baptist. Class of 88.

looks like he attended Faith West, then booked it to 2B.

Ah...well....maybe that's a selling point...or not.

Kind of the last one. Her mother got a job teaching one of the daycare classes so she got to go to faith west at a discounted rate.

As a student starting there so late into the education process, she found it to be a bit off putting to enter a school where the same 20 something kids had gone to school together from K-12. She was able to make friends with the home school kids.

My only other Faith West experience is they recruited my brother to be a pitcher there in high school. He was pretty much too burnt out on sports at that point to care.

I don't remember anyone going there either, and I lived out in Katy.

Based on all of these ringing endorsements, sounds like one hell of a great school!

Thanks for the replies. We toured it today. I came away with a bit of a mixed impression. Seemed solid enough. Any other good Christian options out Katy way? Kids are 2nd grade and ideally a 5 yr old prek

John Paul II?

A Muslim guy whom I sold a hotel site to about 10 yrs ago sent his daughter there.

There just aren't many private school options out in Katy mainly because Katy ISD is considered one of the good districts in the state. For pre-k, many churches offer preschool options.

I went there 2nd-5th grade. But that was back in the late 90s. It was good back then. No clue how it is now.
