St. Johns Lutheran School

Meadowview was good for our daughter because she was a responsible, intelligent student. As she progressed through the grades, the rigid expectations did create a little more stress for her. Our son has not had as much success at Meadowview. He is intelligent, funny, impulsive, active, and diagnosed with ADHD. While there are definitely some GREAT teachers at Meadowview, I think the school as a whole is in the early stages of truly accepting all students for who they are and working with them to succeed. In general, they are gradually moving away from traditional rewards/punishment and towards encouragement and accountability for all starting with where the individual student is. Every child deserves to be accepted for where they are right now. I think Meadowview is starting to recognize they need to take EACH child from where they are and move them step by step to where they need to be. The teacher needs to change to meet the needs of the child, not the child for the teacher. Note: the principal is new this year so I can't speak to great or poor leadership.

It is amazing. I love shepherd hills. I am a student, and this place makes me happy.I am at middle school level on STAR scores.I learned my whole life here.

I felt like this school has helped me become a better person. I had affecionate teachers that truly helped me. The teachers there made me feel special.

Some teachers are not certified, or even have degrees from accredited colleges. There is no nurse or counselors. Only the pastors kids running everything.

It is a great school to start with Academics. The teachers are very good and taking good care of the kids. My son has few developmental delays and I did notice lot of improvements in 3 months after he joined. Thank God to show me such a good place for my son to start his school.
