Taft Elementary School

Good school great teachers and healthy learning environent

Absolutely delightful French immersion school! Despite not speaking French at home, we were determined to provide our child with the incredible gift of learning another language. In just her first two years (pre-K and Kindergarten), she has achieved remarkable fluency in both French and English, impressively grasping the ability to understand, speak, read, and write in both languages.The teachers and faculty at this school are genuinely caring and nurturing, creating a warm and supportive environment. With its small class sizes, students receive ample individual attention, ensuring their needs are met with utmost care. It's truly heartwarming to see how well the children get along, transcending grades and ages effortlessly. The parents are a truly remarkable bunch, coming together to organize delightful and unforgettable events for the students and families through the Parent Association, fostering a sense of camaraderie and joy in the school community.

St. Paul's Lutheran School is a place where your child can grow and excel in both academics and sports. They have an amazing group of teachers who work very closely with their students. A number of the teachers actually went to St. Paul's when they were younger and have now returned to teach. The class sizes are also an advantage as the average size is around 20 to 22 students. The "small school" environment is very nice as everyone knows everyone, and it has a "family" feel to it. The school is always looking at ways to improve their academics, sports programs, and school facilities/grounds by having several fundraisers during the year. I would highly recommend St. Paul's Lutheran School if you would like your child to flourish in an environment where the teachers and staff go above and beyond to ensure their students excel.
