Why MGCS? The Kitts Family

Our dear family friends, the Treppels (daughters Arianna, Lilli and Gloria) recommended Myrtle Grove Christian School to us.  In the fall of 2007, we enrolled Collin in the 3 year old preschool class.  Our second son, Parker, followed in the fall of 2010. We knew from that year forward that this was the place that we wanted our children to be.

BECAUSE OF FAITH

We are charged with two profound commandments:  Love the Lord with all of your heart, soul, and mind, and love others as you love yourself.  Striving for them on a daily basis can only be done through a relationship with Christ.  We believe this is at the very core of Myrtle Grove Christian School.  It was demonstrated to our 3 year old in 2007 and continues to be displayed to both of our children, now in third and sixth grade.  It is through the teachers and staff that we have seen these two commandments implemented on a daily basis.  Our boys are loved and disciplined, taught, and shown these commandments through their daily experiences at MGCS.  They experience grace day after day and the relationships they form with their teachers each school year are priceless.

BECAUSE OF ACADEMICS

The education that the boys receive at MGCS sets a tone for excellence at home and at school.  Each year, they are challenged in unique ways. The curriculum is not “one size fits all” as proven by our boys’ experience.  Collin and Parker have different learning styles and abilities yet both are able to excel with the help and guidance of their teachers.  When needed, they are challenged or encouraged, and are always supported by their teachers.  As parents, we are amazed by the talent of the staff and their willingness to invest in our kids.  We are honored to have these teachers and staff in our children’s lives.

We feel blessed to be part of such a wonderful school.  We know that our kids are challenged and loved and that the faith we teach at home and at church is also taught at school.
