Bearspaw Christian School - Calgary

man this was one heck of an experience, dang i met a lot of great people here who might not even still work here or not but they were all great people except a few I'm not allowed to shame honestly id recommend this school if you Christian and you obedient then if you arent do your best you might have the same experience i had of love, pain, comedy, and most importantly faith that stuff would get better.

As a former K-12 student I can honestly say that I loved my school, especially highschool (I guess I'm weird or something lol). It was in highschool when BCS became more of a tight-knit family than a school to me. My best friends I met in elementary (and really bonded with in highschool) are still my best friends today. The teachers and staff were amazing and always gave special attention to each student to help in any way they needed, often with time outside of normal school hours. In grade 11 I got to go on the Guatemala mission trip with my class and it was a very eye opening and life changing experience. I am very grateful for all the time and effort the teachers and staff have invested in all of the students at BCS. The teachers always sought to incorporate biblical principles in all areas of study and how to apply them in today's world. In many ways the teachers and staff were mentors to us. What I learned here is still shaping who I am today. When they say " Teaching minds, reaching hearts, transforming our world," they really do mean it.

I went to this school from kindergarten to grade nine and everything was okay until grade eight. The teachers completly stopped caring about me and didn't care about my mental health (even though I tried to be open and get help.) I was bullied constantly by the teacher's favourite student and whenever I asked a teacher for help, no one would care and would actually defend the bully over me. I could go on and on with even more stories on what this school has done to me, but I won't. Bearspaw is a good school. Unless you don't fit in with the cookie cutter mold they have set up. I would not recommend this school. Sorry

Really good school, they aren't linked to CBE but they follow alberta curriculum. The teachers all are very engaged with us students and although they may sometimes seem pushy or overbearing, it's all because they care. Romanticism and dating are frowned upon so, as are Halloween, bullying, disrespect and foul language, overall it's a really nice atmosphere for one to be in. Every week they have a morning dedicated to singing, praise and prayer. Bullying is always an obstacle in any school, but if you approach the right teachers they will approach the bully and his/her parents and... well..."rip them a new one". From personal experience, Mrs Martens and Mrs Wilson are whom I recommend going to if you get bullied, they will keep it discrete but lessen none of the severity of the scolding the bully gets. A couple years ago, a student in my class got expelled due to harsh bullying, it's a very loving and embracing community and teachers are downright happy if you come ask them for help if you don't understand something in class, they go beyond their job description and put in extra effort from their own time to make sure students graduate and have their options open... that is of course as long as the student cares. I couldn't ask more from this school, they have events, winter ball, dress ups, a Student Council that constantly comes up with things for students to do for fun, the only thing I could complain about is the uniform, but it's just like any other uniform, in a more philosophical manner it makes us all equal, but it gets annoying when you wear the same thing every day, that's all. Love this school, one of the best in the province, everything you can ask for.

Looking for that right blend between providing quality education and instilling the right values into young minds? Look no further, this school is where you want to have your kids. I don't have any complaints so far. I recommend this school.

So thankful for our school! Thankful they continue to endeavour to point our kids to Christ and encourage them to glorify God in all they do. The teachers love and pray and lead our kids with such kindness and courage. Our family has been blessed to be here. We are a community!

Horrible bigotry and sexism at this school. Very judgemental, midevil mentally and teachings. Once was told by the Bible teacher at this school (in class) to not be friends with any non-Christians unless you can convert them.... which is.... 1) creepy and cult-y 2) disgusting and unloving Overall an extremely unhealthy environment I would never want a child subjected to.

Teachers at elementary school truly love and care about my children. Never heard any bullying at elementary school. They always have fun time at school. There are great music, French and gym teachers. My kids want to go to school even weekend. BCS is also academically excellent. Teachers seem to know how to motivate my daughters to study hard and do their best to do well academically.
