My kid went here for years now I am scared. Brandon Christopher Marriott, a dance teacher at Bethany Christian Academy (Pre - 8th grade Christian School. part of Bethany Bible Fellowship church) 21-year-old pleaded guilty to felony sexual penetration and oral copulation of a minor, a 15-year-old tap dance student. Marriott was sentenced to six months in jail. When this came to light, the staff / leadership at Bethany chose to sweep it under the rug again. They chose not to inform any of the students, parents, or congregation, no investigation. Since the 15 yr old student was not their student (he met her at Focus Dance Center in Irvine, CA), they would chose to ignore the fact that he was also teaching girls of the same age at their school. He has since changed his name to Robin Should. His mother still works there in administration. http://www.ocweekly.com/news/brandon-christopher-marriott-tap-dance-teacher-guilty-of-tapping-teen-student-6474100

This school is a great school, and my two daughters have grown academically, spiritually, and emotionally as a result of the caring teachers and staff there. They have small class sizes so kids get one-on-one attention. The junior high has great electives, and every child has pe and computer classes. Sports, musicals, drill team, spelling and math competitions, and do many more things are offered! You should check it out!
