Testimonials for BCS

Brantford Christian School has been a blessing to our family for 28 years, first for our four children and currently for three of our grandchildren (so far). We are thankful to have a school that supports the values taught in our home, through the dedication, love and care of all the staff. It has been the best investment in the lives of our children. We must also give thanks to God for His faithfulness from generation to generation.

Moving schools was pretty traumatic for me, being shy and unconfident. My previous school was larger and a bit uptight. My first day here was frightening as I stood alone and nauseous but immediately I felt at home. The environment here is so welcoming. I am treated as a person and not persecuted for my ideas and struggles. The teachers are friendly and care for their students. Christian aspects are imbedded into all subjects but we are still allowed to explore other views. My thoughts are listened to and my questions are answered. The thing I’ve noticed most is people are who they are here they don’t struggle to be someone they are not. People are confident and they voice their true opinions. Being here has really opened my eyes to new things and has made me a lot more sure of myself

When I first moved here from my previous school I was scared half to death, meeting new people was difficult for me, but the welcome I received was amazing. Random people from higher and lower grades came to welcome me, something that would have never happened at my old school. That first day I already had a group of friends to hang out with. In my old school I always struggled with my math and the teachers there didn’t seem to understand my needs. BCS has a whole different feeling. When I came I felt as though I could ask the teachers the questions I had without feeling as though I were stupid. I felt totally comfortable with my classmates and I loved the way the teachers felt free to joke around with the students.

I believe that students become teachers because they were inspired by an educator from their past. I am very excited about the future teachers, being inspired by the staff at Brantford Christian School.
What a beautiful illustration of Luke 8:15 "But the seed on good soil stands for those with a noble and good heart, who hear the word, retain it, and by persevering produce a crop."

I am a single mother, who never imagined private school as a viable option. As my daughter approached school age, I was introduced to the Ontario Alliance of Christian Schools. With very little shuffling, I was able to substitute "Daycare" with "Tuition" in my household budget. To this day, that is one of the best decisions I have ever made. Each time I have a setback or need to re-evaluate finances, I look at my now teenager who has faith, integrity and is eager to learn. Priceless.

I am a BCS parent. I love knowing that how we live and what we teach our children at home is being continued at school. I love knowing that my children are being encouraged to grow and develop as their own, unique image-bearers of God. I love knowing that each friend my child makes has a family that also holds these beliefs.
I know these things because I am a BCS teacher. Each day I walk into our school and see the Spirit at work. Teachers and students are happy. There are smiles and laughter. There is excitement and energy. At times, there is sadness and hurt. There is always a genuine love and respect between teachers and students. As we teach, learn, guide and grow we recognize that it is for His purpose and to His glory we work and play.
