We could not be happier with our choice to enroll our son at Cresset Christian Academy. After facing discrimination at his previous charter school due to his Christian faith, we were seeking a warm, supportive environment where his faith would be welcomed. We found that and so much more at Cresset.From the moment we stepped foot on the inviting, well-maintained campus, we knew this was the right fit. The administration and teachers welcomed us with open arms and have continued to provide an exceptional level of care and support. Our son absolutely loves going to school each day to learn in his stimulating classes, connect with friends, and grow in his faith. Some highlights for our family have been the weekly Wednesday chapel, the strong sense of community among students, teachers, and parents, the top-notch Bible curriculum, school basketball games, and the dedication of the teachers to get to know each child individually. Our son has grown tremendously in his academics and his faith thanks to the nurturing environment at Cresset. We enthusiastically recommend Cresset Christian Academy to other families seeking a supportive Christian school. The community has been a blessing to our family. We are so pleased with the caring teachers, faith-based learning, and strong values that shape each school day. Our son is thriving, and we couldn't have asked for a better school.
