Christ the King Lutheran Church - largo - Largo (FL)

5 /5 SARAH STATSICK: Our daughter attended CTK from the time she was one year old through Kindergarten, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the experience. We absolutely love the school—the Principal, administration, and every teacher have been truly amazing. Communication was always clear and consistent; we were kept informed about everything happening with our daughter and the school itself. The staff was proactive in addressing any concerns and always handled things with grace and kindness. Over the years, our daughter has amazed us with how much she’s learned—both academically and biblically. CTK has been a place where we have always felt loved, supported, and cared for. We will miss this school deeply and will forever hold it close to our hearts.

1 /5 B Figaro: These folks should be ashamed to call themselves Christians. A few years ago my wife and I lived in Florida with our two small children, whom we sent to their daycare with a local program that assisted low income families paying for childcare. The teachers were amazing especially miss Pam! That being said the pastor and the administration are greedy and only concerned with money and building their multi million dollar private school. We paid a copay of approximately 20 dollars a week for the entire first year and a half. When it came time for re-enrollment we were informed that the copay would now be well over $100 a week because "prices went up and the program no longer payed them enough for our child care. When my wife and I spoke to the pastor he at first said he would be happy to help and than came back a few days later and asked if I "needed help finding a job" so we could be able to pay them the full copay (we were both working full time already). We were forced to pull our kids out and found another daycare that not only charged us a very low co-pay but also fed the babies hot lunch ( christ the king did not provide lunch at all). We were treated so badly by these "Christians" and they were so focused on money and profit that its something we still think about 3 years later and 2 states away. I pray that they change their priorities from greed and profit to love and being more christ like!

5 /5 Michelle Spankie: I was a mere child when I attended church at The Christ of Kings. My grandparents, Rauen, were very involved in the church. While I didn’t see it as a child when I saw the picture of the church it felt like coming home. I would love to see pictures of the stained glass behind the pulpit. It is awe inspiring. While my grandparents would argue loudly on the way to church they were pious when the car doors opened. I can understand the reviews as of late, as that is how my family was. However, I don’t question their faith.

1 /5 Crystal Sherrill: Community should be informed of this case and their rights to oppose this 120-140 ft cell tower. Attend hearing on 5/31 and use your voice! protect your health and property value.

1 /5 Wick Bihhh: Dont waste your time putting your children here. They seem to hire within the principals family. They all go on vacation together being that all three workers are family, leaving the school short staff this seems to be every month and putting the stress on the teachers that are at the school. The VPK teacher is never up to date with her lesson plans and seems never to get into trouble for it (go figure) shes the daughter in-law of the principal. Bringing classes back and forth to the office just to talk to each other. There is no real learning in this school other than the first grade. They say there for the families and theyre not. Wonder why your children are still hungry they do not make sure the kids are eating what the family packs them. On Wednesday they take the kids to chapel where its like 80 degrees in the church (AC much) children shouldnt be in there if its that hot. Cot sheets from VPK are never washed and if they are its every three to four weeks. VPK bathroom stinks it doesnt take a rocket scientist to figure out hey it smells let me clean it. OH, wait the principals son is the janitor please explain why most classrooms floors dont get mopped. The list goes on.... let me not forget to mention keep in mind the school changed its name for a reason people do your research thus the reason why this school is not thriving, and teachers are way under paid. Sorry Not Sorry
