Mankato West Senior High School

Small close knit school with caring staff and teachers who genuinely care about the success of all students! Excellent support to families and lots of family involvement opportunities!!

I have attend lunch with my children at Bridges. When the lunch room gets loud they must raise their hands in the air and be silent, if this happens to often then they all must have a silent lunch. There is often a great deal of teasing and bulling.

We decided to try Immanuel Lutheran after our oldest child was being bullied in the public school. Overall, this school gets 5 stars because of the quality education. The teachers genuinely care about the students and their academic success, as well as spiritual development. Small class sizes have helped our children develop healthy self-esteem. The best part is that the Word of God is integral in all the subjects taught, from spelling and Spanish, to science and social studies. There are sports activities, music, choir, band, drama, and Lego robotics. Our children each found activities in which they could thrive. When the kids were younger, we took advantage of the after school care. I recommend this school to other parents seeking quality Christian education for a reasonable tuition.
