I have two school age children here. We joined the school this year (2025) and have been very pleased. The school goes the extra mile to ensure they’re safe and secure. The teachers and new principal have been wonderful. Strong PTA presence and many school events that we have enjoyed going to. The s
Posted by a parent on 11/22/2025They have been more than accommodating during the pandemic and have taken great care of my child’s learning.
Posted by a parent on 3/3/2021It is a well-integrated school that is trying very hard in a low income area with less than average monetary resources with some decent level of success.

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school and its teachers are committed to excellence. They have high expectations for the students both in academics and in character. The smaller class sizes help the students and teachers get to know each other personally. My two children have been pushed to be the best they can be intellectually while being encouraged to develop strong moral values and solid biblical character. The teachers have been superb role models for my children who both have very different personalities and abilities. The negative reviews on this site seem to be the exception and are apparently written by those who are disgruntled and refused to comply with the expectations and policies of the school. For me and my children, this has been an excellent school that supports the values and goals of our home in a safe and loving environment.Parent Review9y ago - Our Saviors Lutheran School
