I have two children, one graduated from JRHS in 2015 and the other will graduate in 2017. This is a wonderful Christian community which provides outstanding educational, spiritual, and recreational opportunities for the students. The faculty and staff love the students and go above and beyond to help them succeed and reach their fullest God-given potentials. Our son is currently in his 2nd year of college and has found that JRHS did an excellent job preparing him for the demands of college. Both of our children have matured spiritually and grown closer to the Lord, in large part due to the opportunities

I have 3 kids that have attended JRHS. As a parent, I love that Jesus is at the center of the school. The campus is beautiful and encourages students to enjoy the outdoors between classes. Great hands on learning thru projects and labs. JRHS does a great job preparing students for their next step after high school with strong academics and programs that create effective leaders for Jesus.
