The staff is amazing--kind, knowledgeable, and always focused on the well-being and development of each child. They really foster a love for learning while making sure the kids are prepared for kindergarten. My children have grown so much here, both in terms of academics and confidence, and it's clear that the teachers are passionate about what they do. I highly recommend this preschool to anyone looking for a place where their child will feel safe, loved, and ready for the next step in their educational journey. It's been such a positive experience for our family! LW is an amazing community and we are truly grateful to be a part of it.

Living Word Lutheran Preschool is a faith-based preschool for ages 15 months (toddler class) - age…read more5 (pre-K) located within Living Word Lutheran Church. It follows a traditional school calendar. My daughter started here at 22 months and continued all the way to Pre-K. The impact this sweet little school has had on my daughter is beyond measure. She LOVED this school and it instilled in her a love for learning and her classmates, who she developed deep friendships with and still sees on play dates even after completing her years at the preschool. The classes are small and close, with teachers who love what they do and have been there for years. Her graduation from Living Word Lutheran Preschool was in May of 2024, and she is now in Kindergarten and excelling, thanks to the work of these amazing teachers. I'm going to list several of the things I love about this school: - Teachers have lots of experience, love what they do, and continue to be lifelong learners (professional development annually). I'm a (former) high school teacher and this was important to me as a teacher myself. And they were such a blessing in my daughter's life - my daughter loved them all so much from the toddler class to the 2's to the 3's to pre-K. She still asks me how they're doing. We actually made the decision to join the church after our daughter was here for several years - and we love it. -Great activities - which in our years there- included St. Jude's Trike-a-thon, growing butterflies, nature walks, "dinosaur hunts," and tons of art projects in addition to the academics. -Lots of play time: so important for socialization. They have a wonderful, gated playground- definitely worth seeing on the tour. They get to ride tricycles out on the playground too in addition to all the climbing structures. My Gym visits Living Word Lutheran Preschool weekly (included in price) and they have other offered activities that come to the school including Soccer Shots and Boni's dance. -Academics-wise: I wanted her to be prepared for kindergarten and kindergarten has been a great experience based on her foundation from this preschool. -Organization/Communication: A handbook clearly outlines the school's procedures. They have an efficient car line before and after school, too, but my favorite thing to do was park in the farther church parking lot and walk my daughter up this walking path they have that goes to the entrance of the church. She loved running/hopping/skipping to school on that little walking path. The director, Ms. Bev, is amazing and she is to credit for the school's excellent communication. -Hours: As dual working parents, the hours 8:30-2:30 plus the ability to add before care and/or after care worked wonderfully for our family. To note: as they follow a traditional school calendar, the school does not run in the summer. I used to tell the director, Ms. Bev, that I'd continue my daughter here if they offered beyond Pre-K. It will always be a source of fond memories from my daughter's early years.

He did not even have a packet to give me or anything. He printed out a couple pieces of paper and wrote on the back.

I did not get a good feeling and definitely would not be returning. I had already heard from another parent that attended the school but they did not like it and it did not compare to the previous location that they attended. ( They did not stay at the school. ) I still wanted to go look at it and give it a chance. If it really was the owner that I was speaking with he was definitely not trying to sell the place to me.
