Redeemer Lutheran School

Couldn't be happier with my son's 3k experience here. The Principal is extremely warm and experienced. We are very grateful to be here.

My child has had a wonderful experience at this school, starting in 3K. Her teachers are communicative, kind and always eager to support me as a parent in finding ways to bridge the connection between school and home. The school's principal, Mrs. O'Shaughnessy, is incredibly responsive and ambitious in her leadership. She is deeply involved in every aspect of the school's functioning and truly wants the best for every student. Equity is highly valued here. The school is constantly developing new programs and opportunities for its students and I've felt welcomed and encouraged to participate as a parent in getting to know the school. I know my child feels cared for and the environment overall is warm and loving. In 3K and PreK my child has made great friends and connections with teachers, developed social skills and help with emotional regulation. The importance of play and collaboration using art making, dance, STEM activities and phonetic awareness of words and early reading have been areas of learning and it's a joy to see my child grow at this school.As a parent I would encourage other parents to contextualize the data they see on sites like these. It's hard to get a sense of a school without being in it and something like overall test scores only tell part of the story. Get to know your school's community by learning about its challenges as well as its progress!

The Kindergarten Program in this School is absolutely horrible, every single day kids are getting very annoying and difficult homework that requires the use of glue and scissors. My 3rd grader needed additional help getting prepared for the State Exam, the School created an additional Tutoring Program for the State Exam that started at 7AM !! It was impossible for me to bring my daughter for this Program because I had little kids at home. On top of that, all year long my daughter wasn’t learning anything in her class while having Two Teachers in the classroom, and there was no Writing Homework all Year , for 3rd Grade!!! Terrible School.

Pre k is horrible. The children are out of control. They bully the teachers. Spit at the teachers and others. The staff is not concerned about anything happening in pre k. The parents are contacted and they seem to ignore what their child is doing. I don’t understand why this is allowed to continue. Many pre k children are kicking teachers and other children. This all gets reported to the staff and parents. Teachers are coming home with black and blue legs and spit all over their clothes. How can the staff of this school allow this?
