I am so thankful that my grand children are enrolled at Knollwood! I am an educator and I see on so many levels how the teachers have challenged them to excell in academics and so much more. Thank you Knollwood!

St. Luke’s Episcopal School’s Japonica campus is an incredible place for children to learn and grow. The individualized instruction, small class sizes, and caring teachers make a huge difference in my child’s education. Anytime I’ve had a concern, it’s been easy to reach out to a teacher or administrator, and I’ve always felt heard.Academically, St. Luke’s is top-notch. They offer science-based enrichment classes, and the teachers bring subjects to life—Ms. Thompson keeps my child excited about science, and Mr. D is hands-down the best music teacher ever! The coursework is rigorous but rewarding, ensuring students are challenged in the best way.Beyond academics, the school truly cares about character development. Weekly chapel services and dedicated classes help students understand emotions, kindness, and what it means to be a good person. My child is also thriving in extracurricular activities, enjoying both basketball and soccer, as well as participating in school plays and performances throughout the year.Communication with parents is outstanding. Teachers use ClassDojo daily, send home notes in binders, and the school-wide PawPrints newsletter keeps us informed every Friday. The school’s website calendar and social media pages make it easy to stay up to date, and if anything important arises, the nurse, teachers, or administrators personally reach out.What sets St. Luke’s apart is its warm, welcoming environment. It’s a place where kids can focus on their education without growing up too fast. My daughter has made great friends and looks forward to school every day. If you’re looking for a small, family-friendly school with excellent academics and a nurturing atmosphere, I highly recommend St. Luke’s Episcopal School’s Japonica campus!
