It is our first year at Hope Lutheran after (transferring from another Lutheran K-8) due to our family moving to the area. Scheduled a tour with the principal, Mrs. Nguyen, in May & my kiddos joined Hope's 1st & 5th grade this August. First impressions on arrival is: secure, fully-gated campus - no visitors can walk onto campus without the code or calling into the office. The staff are all very professional and personable from the Administration all the way to the after-school care team. Academics are in par with what we were doing at the previous institution. Hope focuses on each single child's unique learning experience & development. Teachers are extremely supportive & encouraging while holding the kids to a higher standard of accountability. Pros: - Strong PTL and parent participation - Small Class Size - Individualized Curriculum - Secure Campus Access - Daily Catering Hot Lunch for purchase - Teachers & Staff are all welcoming Cons: - No Gymnasium/MPR read more

This continues to be a wonderful school, combining a Christian education, academic excellence, sports, music and technology classes. The principal and teachers are outstanding. The campus is great, nice trees, picinic/eating areas, sports fields, and also good but unobtrusive security. read more

Hope has been such an amazing school for our son since first grade, he's is 4th grade now. The compassion and kindness and family environment is exactly what I was looking for in a school. I am grateful to have a Christian community that is built on faith and the Bible I love their Wednesday chapel and the curriculum. The principal of the school is very involved and easy to communicate with with an open door policy. She has always been positive and an advocate of my child. My child is enjoying his fourth grade year with the amazing Mrs Sanchez. She is patient and she is kind. She takes them to the garden and also does baking activities with them along with their regular curriculum which I am truly pleased with. read more

Our girls have been going to this school for the past three years and I can't say enough about every teacher they have had! It's evident that they love teaching and care about all students. We feel that both our girls are learning well and even excelling in some areas. I personally love that it's a smaller school. According to my kiddos they have Bible time all the time . I especially love how they come home singing worship songs. Schedule a tour to see for yourself. read more

Best school in town. The education is better than all the other schools. Class sizes are smaller too. The chapel is amazing and the church welcomes all with open arms. read more

There are so many great things I can say about the academics of this school, like they teach math a year higher than other private schools in town. But I want to focus on the fact that they are true Christians that teach the kids values and morals. The staff and students are humble and genuinely nice. read more

My son has been at Hope since late 2019... I could not be happier at this school! It's not just school for him (or us) it's a family. Communication between teachers and parents is super easy. They're helpful respectful, loving and nurturing to everyone who attends or visits. I've suggested this school to all my family and friends over the years, I'm so grateful for Hope truly read more

She's incredible and truly loves the students. The love that the teachers have for the students is so evident!

Our daughter has been attending Hope since pre-k , she is now a 4th grader and we have had a great experience. We will continue here until she is ready to move on. read more

This school used to be quite good, but I don't know why. Now the service quality is getting worse and worse, and the teaching quality is getting worse and better. Poor, is it the reason for changing the principal? I hope you still think more.Other schools, don't think about this school read more

Hope has delivered more than expected for the education of our child. Small class sizes, friendly/loving/safe environment, family oriented, strong focus on math, science, vocab, etc. They are a well-rounded school with a fantastic administration that ensures your child will get a great experience. Academics is obviously very important, but so are extracurricular after-school activities such as: football, soccer, volleyball, basketball, meet up's, field trips, etc. Most recently, there was grandparents day, half day event where students could share their school with grandma or grandpa. Our child has excelled in Hope's loving environment. He was once a shy kid, but he now beams with confidence and self-assurance. Would highly recommend them for the education of your children. read more

I've have/ had two grandchildren at Hope and I love it..the kids did too! It's like a family. The new principal is amazing! I feel so blessed for our experiences at the school. The education they receive is over the top! read more

I can't say enough great things about Hope! My daughter started in preschool after I researched and interviewed a handful of schools from East Pasadena to San Dimas. I chose Hope initially because I liked the preschool director and the preschool teachers I had a chance to meet. Now my daughter will be finishing second grade in a month and I am continually impressed with the level of compassion, care, and dedication I see from faculty and staff. I've had nothing but good experiences with everyone I interact with, including parents. My daughter is excelling socially and academically, and I know it's because of this school. She used to be so shy; now she exudes confidence. Her reading level and critical thinking skills are beyond her grade. I just love this school and so does my daughter! read more

Hope is a small, well-rounded school that gives a lot of attention to its students and parents. All 3 of my children have attended since kindergarten and have thoroughly enjoyed their teachers, friends, classes and extra activities, including various sports and dramatic performances. The families are inclusive and caring. Most importantly, it's a place where children feel loved through the power of Christ. Those who enroll and get involved quickly become part of a school family that strives to excel in academics and so much more. read more

We are so grateful for this beautiful school! It has transformed our son's life, and, especially in this uncertain time of pandemic, the solid consistency that Hope has provided in our son's academic life, albeit online, has been completely invaluable. My husband and I are both college teachers, and understand how difficult the transition to distance learning has been since we've been living it, and that makes us appreciate all of you, especially Mrs.Marshall, even more! Thank you, thank you, thank you! read more

The most unprofessional unfriendly office staffs ever! Walked in with my two kids was interested in the preschool for my son I had called and made an appointment for a school tour ahead of time. On that Friday when I walked in there was a older man with a mustache standing right in the office with one other staff and they were chatting of course he saw me looked at me made eye contact and turned away and kept looking on his piece of paper ignoring me while I politely said excuse me a couple of time to that man who just did there and trying to ignore me did not answer me I mean literally there was no one there except the three of us... there was another lady that was on the computer I waited patiently for 5 minutes until the lady turned around and said oh can I help you I mean seriously the guy was standing right in front of me said nothing to me . Seriously it was discrimination against the color of my skin cuz that man looked at me up and down and then turn away. And I went to this school because I'm also a practicing Christian but after that experience on last Friday I will not be signing my child up for that school... read more

I absolutely love this church and school. Both the church and school have met my family's needs. I consider the Hope community as a family. They know everyone by name, love support and encourage each other. Both of my children attend the school. They are getting a wonderful education and learning about the love of Christ. Both the church and school has been a blessing. read more

Love love love! My children attend school here and our family attends church as well. This congregation is caring thoughtful and loving. A great family oriented place and I feel safe when my kids are here. We love the vacation bible a school during the summer and harvest festival in the fall. We call it our second home. read more

We are new to the area and were seeking a church that would benefit our whole family. I really feel this is it! From the second we arrived, we were greeted by friendly church members and comforted by meaningful worship. And the church has a Welcome Committee SO well organized that they visited us at our home to give us a Welcome Bag just THREE HOURS after the service had ended! On the FIRST Sunday we visited! WOW. We look forward to getting more involved and making many new friends here. This church is a great blessing to the local community! :) read more

We came to Hope almost 5 years ago when it was time to select a pre-school for our daughter. So many outstanding choices in Glendora, but Hope was the best. Our daughter is a 2nd grader now, and is joined by her younger brother, in kindergarten. Neither of our children could read when they entered as full-time kindergarten students. Both are reading at two grade levels or more above their current grade. Both are proficient in math. In fact, our kindergartener often offers to help his big sister with her multiplication homework! Thus far big sister has declined his offers. We couldn't be happier. The teachers are attentive and thorough. The administrative staff is friendly and resourceful. The students treat each other with compassion and care. Whenever we are on campus, we feel like we are amongst family. It is a wonderful learning environment that I recommend enthusiastically to anyone looking for a school. read more

This place is the epitome of Christina love and quality education

I originally sent my first grand-daughter to Hope. A good education that included good character building was important to my wife and I. We lived about 10 miles east of Glendora, but the trip was worth it. She started there at about 3 years of age in pre-school and graduated 2 years ago from eighth grade. Now, my second and third grand-daughter attend and will finish there as well. They too started in preschool. Although they now live 20 miles away, they journey there. My wife and I were pleased that reading, writing and arithmetic were emphasized as was science in later years. My eldest grand-daughter always tested well above her grade level in standardized tests throughout her years. Indeed, she now attends a public high school and noted she was very well prepared for public school. She was rather advanced, especially in reading, writing, etc. The other girls are coming along nicely as well. The campus is smaller and all my grand children have received the attention they deserved as their class sizes were smaller, allowing teachers to give that extra attention. They do have sports, and all who want, get to participate. However, there is competition between teams and I enjoyed watching their games. They have a big field, play equipment for the younger ones, and an outstanding courtyard with a huge oak in the center. Bullying is not tolerated and you can speak to the teacher principle directly about any issue rather than going through the endless layers of public school administration. On the contrary, respect and kindness were emphasized as well as love of your fellow man. If your child, like one of mine, needed help on a subject, the teacher was available to help give extra guidance. In my case, an older student with command of the subject was engaged to tutor after school. I just appreciated finding this location and am thankful for opportunities there and for what they did and are doing for my grand-children. They do wear uniforms, which we came to appreciate as they were handed down through the years and saved money. I know I should have thanked them sooner, but with 3 grand-children, they keep my wife and I pretty busy...... read more
