Meadowlark Elementary School

Our child has attended JPIICS since pre-school and we love it. The class sizes are small, allowing for individual attention. The students and faculty are like family to us. Our student gets 30 minutes of Spanish instruction each day, which is not available in public schools. The school offers PE, music and library time. Art instruction is lacking as the teacher quit this year. Our student is academically challenged by her teacher and performs at or well above students in her grade level within the public school system. One thing JPII cannot provide that the PS can provide is enrichment classes; however they partner with Dirty Fun, a science based after school program that is free to students in 3-6th grade. The reason we chose and continue to send our student to JPII is for the Catholic Faith Formation. I could not have given my child the religious foundation that JPII can provide students. The principal and office staff are wonderful to work with. Teachers are loving and caring. My student feels safe and at home at JPII

This is a fantastic school with a staff of teachers who genuinely love what they do and are there for the students and to help instill a Christ-centered message combined with a great education approach. The class sizes are smaller, so children get more individualized attention. They have a state approved pre-K program as well that offers all day care for preschool age children. Additionally, the high school is fantastic, with individualized lesson plans and plenty of flexibility for teenage children and their extracurricular schedules. My children have gone there for consecutive years in preschool, first grade, second grade, fifth grade, and sixth grade. They also have church on Wednesday mornings. The school also participates enthusiastically in young authors program annually. I would recommend a school for parents who want something better for their kids than what is currently being offered in the public education system.
