"StoneBridge kids were easy to spot in my store. They were the joyful ones. They came into work with a brightness that lifted everyone's spirits. I worried at times that my StoneBridge kids would be corrupted by the cynicism of many of their coworkers but I quickly realized that the StoneBridgers were actually causing the others to become brighter in attitude when they were around each other. And yes, I do believe that both the StoneBridge education and the expectation that self-government would be evident in their actions are equally to be credited for what made my StoneBridge employees stand out from the crowd...
I will always cherish the memories of that time period in my store. The StoneBridge connection has faded over time but my wife and I have truly enjoyed watching these young folks grow up. Hopefully they will remember the Chick-fil-A stated corporate purpose (to be a faithful steward of all that God has entrusted to us and to have a positive influence on all of those we come in contact with) when they find their career jobs. And maybe the ‘brightness’ these StoneBridgers brought into my store will shine through them to the generation that they will soon be leading!"
- Bill & Kimberly Davis, StoneBridge alumni parents and Owner/Operators of the Indian River Road Chick-fil-A (Virginia Beach), who employed several StoneBridge students in their store
"I participated in the JJV Girls Basketball Championship game yesterday (February 21, 2009), and I just wanted to say that your JJV girls basketball team had the best sportsmanship I have ever seen. They were kind, gracious, and friendly even after some of the teams weren't. They acted like real Christians and set a wonderful example for everyone. They were an absolute pleasure to play. Thank you."

"We (SBS) are doing the right thing!! Darin and I are partnering with SBS so that our boys grow up to be patriotic gentlemen. We are proud and excited to see that they become Godly husbands and fathers. When things get rough, we'll have faith knowing He is with us and we are doing His will by keeping our boys here."
– Vanessa Ward, Current StoneBridge Parent
"My son just completed K5 and I could not be happier with the school. He has not only learned how to read and arithmetic (using an abacus), but also a great deal about history, science, geography, art, and music. The parent involvement is extremely good and the teachers are wonderful. He will be going into Kindergarten next year at the same school and I am confident in the education that he will receive at StoneBridge. In the music and art programs, the children learn art history and music history as well as participate in projects."

"StoneBridge is everything that we ever dreamed of finding in a school for our children. Being raised in the education field, I have seen the good and the ugly in schools worldwide. This school is the BEST of all the schools I’ve ever seen! We love this school and all the faculty and staff."
– StoneBridge Alumni Parent
"StoneBridge teaches what I teach at home, Godly principles! Our children's physical safety is well protected; innocence is treasured at this school by staff as well as other families."
"The academic instruction is excellent. A Christian foundation for all things is taught; among my favorites is Christian self-government."
"The classical, Biblical method of teaching is very important to us."
"The education received is the best for preparing the child for their future station in life. It is Biblically-based and teaches the Sovereignty of God."
"I have personally witnessed the transformation and the renewing of lives, my childrens' and my own, as a result of applying the Principle Approach to education. It is revolutionary and eternal."
"What sets StoneBridge apart? Godly, committed, and motivated faculty. Outstanding, academically rigorous, Biblically-based curriculum. Classical education. Christian friendships and fellowship. Awesome academics, family-like atmosphere, good athletic program!"
"The curriculum is Biblically-based, family involvement is encouraged and the class sizes are smaller."
"I love the loving atmosphere and having families that we are equally yoked within the classes. I feel that this helps us stick to our morals and values and reinforces what we are doing at home."
"The special days are an exciting way to learn and the approach to many projects is far greater than most schools."
"The Principle Approach method of education employed at the school is the most excellent means of forming Christian character in the next generation."
"I like the attention that my child receives due to class size. I also have a strong sense that my child is safe. I like that my child, as well as her classmates, demonstrate excellent social skills, are accepting of others, and have high moral standards."
"I love the school, the teachers and the way they teach. The atmosphere is very comforting and understanding."
"From the moment I drop my child off in the car pool line I know that she is cherished by every single faculty and staff member at StoneBridge. Not only is she treated with care and respect, she is being imparted with an education that knows no match here in
"We have been here for 15 years and it has been a truly awesome experience."
"StoneBridge is an excellent school in many ways. As a first-year parent, all my expectations were exceeded."
"If you are looking for a Christian school, there is no doubt that StoneBridge is the best in Tidewater."
