Canyonville Christian Academy Creepy unqualified teachers

Canyonville Academy (aka Canyonville Bible Academy) (aka Canyonville Christian Academy)

So glad to hear this place has been sold and permanently shut down. They hired the worst people possible as teachers.

In particular was a teacher named James Stenberg (aka Jim s.h.i.t.berg). This guy used to openly brag in class about being a former heroin drug addict who almost committed murder with a gun by shooting another man.

Why in the world would any parent want this guy near their kids!? Thank God he's almost 80 years old and will soon be taking a permanent dirt nap.

Good riddance to that whole place

Robert John "Bob" Shaffer was the son of the original founder of Canyonville Academy. He graduated from the school in 1932 and went on to serve as the esteemed president of the same school and later served on the Board of Directors for many years.

While he accomplished many things in his life, many people don't know that he was also a very successful and famous actor. One of his more famous acting roles was playing the part of Reverend Kane in the film Poltergeist 2 which came out in theaters in 1986.

All the students at Canyonville Academy loved him dearly. Because if they didn't he would possess their souls and take them to the nether world just like in movie.

To any parent considering sending your child to this school, I would ask you to be cautious and to please consider other options. As a parent of a former student, both my husband and I were deeply dissapointed with the education our child received. Upon graduating from CCA, our child enrolled in a moderately competitive private university and nearly dropped...

Canyonville Christian Academy Terrible boarding school

This school is terrible. It is a boarding school. The food here is terrible making all the students gain at least 10 pounds if not more. I practically have to stave myself to stay at a healthy weight here. They also kick out their students if they don't like them. for personal reasons, but say its about grades. Some people this last school year got kicked out "because of grades" when other students with worse grades can stay. Its not a fair school and they definitely play favorites.

The principal of the school Doug Wead never visits the school and has no idea whats going on... but he can decide what the rules are and who gets kicked out. It doesn't make sense.

If you ever consider this school find a new one unless they completely change their system.

I wrote this a while ago out of anger. My friend had just been kicked out and I wasen't too happy with the decision. I know the staff is trying to make the best decisions for the school and for the rest of the students. I'm sorry. CCA is actually a great boarding school. I loved being at CCA.
Students at CCA feel welcomed right when they get there. The students are friendly and the dorm life is so much fun. The food also improved so much this year.

Does anyone know how to erase this complaint?

Well, Anonymous - all I can say is "Whaaaaa..."

I am sure the school is asking students to leave, I am sure they have VERY good reasons, beyond grades. Students will never get the full story, that's just the way it is. Part of the difficulty of managing a boarding school is knowing how to deal with the "bad apples" that have the potential of spoiling the school year for the whole class.

I do know of a few cases where it was DEFINITELY in the best interest of the school AND the students to remove a couple of students before any big problems occurred.

By the way, is there a website for parents like me to complain about whiny spoiled kids?;^>
