I have gone to bell shoals for four years and I love it. We have uniforms so you aren't judged by your appearance, so you have to really get to know people. For the most part, everyone is pretty accepting, and that is very important in middle school. Also, you are surrounded by people who love Jesus, and they teach you strong moral values. I only have one more year left, and I wish that they would have a highschool. The curriculum is challenging, but it puts us ahead in the public school system which is great! You should send your kid to BSBA
The teachers are mostly dedicated and kind. The teachers do have high expectations for behavior. I do feel, however, the academic environment is creatively stiffling. There are no areas in which kids are allowed to grow creatively. The teachers mostly teach to one type of child. There are a lot of workbook pages, not so much hands on learning. Teachers are not trained in learning styles. No gifted or LD classes available. If your child fits into the box, you will love this school. If you are looking to have individual needs met, look elsewhere.

We could not be any happier with BSBA. My daughter is in the pre k 4 year old program and is reading, writing and loving the lord. The staff is wonderful and educated. We plan on sending her there throughout 8th grade and soon my son will follow. They have many field trips and went to see the manatees just today. Susan Powell
