Read what parents are saying about Good Shepherd SchoolWe were not pleased! The teacher and principal were one unit and it was difficult to approach the teacher without her taking offense. When the principal would become involved she would immediately take offense and defend the teachers who were her buddies. The principal was a former teacher so she had made friends with her piers. I think it was difficult for her to separate her role as a friend and represent student, teacher and parents. She was not objective. It was her way or the highway!
Posted by a parent on 6/17/2020Good Shepherd School is an amazing K-8 Christian private school. We have two kids, both started at GSS in Kindergarten. One has gone all the way through 8th grade and the other is in junior high. The school itself has been around for many, many years and they recently added a preschool. The teachers are excellent, compassionate and creative. They bond well with the kids and work to provide engaging learning opportunities, including a few dynamic living-history units. I love that they combine Biblical teaching throughout their curriculum. This school has provided my kids with a solid foundation not only of academics, but also of Biblical roots and character. The parent involvement is great and there is usually a parent helper in each classroom every day. Most of the kids come from the Boring, Gresham, Sandy area with a number also coming from Troutdale, Damascus, Happy Valley, Clackamas, Oregon City, and beyond. Deciding to send our kids to this school has been one of our best decisions.
Posted by a parent on 2/7/2018My kids went to this school from Kindergarten through 8th grade, then went on to public high school where they excelled in academics and social aspects. I feel they were well prepared for the challenges they would encounter in a much larger school. They had acquired skills to be leaders in their high school years.
Posted by a parent on 2/5/2018We are so blessed to have teachers who are passionate and compassionate. The desire to see all kids succeed in multiple aspects of their character is evident. There are classes and experiences offered here that you won't find anywhere else. Truly, any other school in our area simply cannot compete.
Posted by a parent on 2/5/2018I cannot say enough how thankful we are to have our daughter at Good Shepherd. The environment has been such an amazing blessing. The teachers and staff at Good Shepherd provide a wonderful godly and loving environment and help enable each child to excel in their faith, academics and character each and every day. Good Shepherd is not just a school, they are our family. Whether I am taking our daughter to scool, volunteering at the school or attending a church or school function, I get a wonderful feeling every single time I go there. My daughter started kindergarten at another private school. Every day I picked her up from school she cried. It was awful. She's in 4th grade now and since we made the switch to Good Shepherd, there is not one day she hasn't said "My day was wonderful!" We can't ask for more than that.

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis is such a great school! I have kiddos in preschool, now pre-kindergarten, and first grade and this is thier first year at this school. I could not be happier! Both my boys love going to school here and really enjoy the after care program. My 1st grader had a hard time at his last school because most of the kids knew eachother already and would not play with him. He had an amazing teacher there but even her attempts to help keep him from sitting alone during recess were not successful. He was hesitant in starting a new school. I was so ecstatic when he came back from his first day at HVJA with a HUGE smile telling me about all his new friends!!! The kids here are friendly and VERY accepting of new kids. I have even watched how wonderful they are towards other kids with disabilities. Likewise the parents have been very friendly and encouraging offering help if needed. The teachers here are friendly and are great with the kids. They have art, P.E., music, piano lessons if you want, a library, full gym, before and after care if needed, and daily hot lunch options. I'm glad we found this school and HIGHLY recommend it!!!Parent Review6y ago - Gresham Community Christian School
