Freshman year I would've tried to convince everyone I could to come to SSHS, now I tell them to run. The math department besides for Mrs Saucerman and Mrs Hazelwood and Mr Duda are horrible. Those three teachers are the only way you'll learn anything. I haven't learned anything and have been set back by Mrs Avavilli and the geometry teacher Mrs G. They don't teach us they give notes and then teach us incorrectly and extremely slowly. We don't learn. We're being held back by our educators and it's hurting our future. I've started to give up on classes and just teach myself topics via my own textbooks that I buy, watching videos on topics with real teachers and even have been tutoring others since the teachers can't seem to. It's bad the administration keeps getting worse and worse by the year.

Our family has been incredibly blessed by Good Shepherd Lutheran School (soon to become Trinity…read moreLutheran School). What first stood out to us was the small class sizes, but we quickly realized that "small" is actually one of this school's greatest strengths. The teachers truly know and care for their students, go above and beyond to help them succeed, and are able to fully teach the curriculum instead of constantly playing catch-up. Students have opportunities to participate in weekly chapel, STEM, gardening, PE, musicals, extracurricular activities, and one of my favorite things -- ASL for all students with daily practice opportunities. Looking back, I can clearly see God's hand leading our family here. We wanted a school where we could be involved and build community... and apparently God took that prayer seriously because I somehow ended up as PTL president. I asked for a way to help and He responded with, "Wonderful, here's a full-time ministry!" Haha. What this school may lack in size, it more than makes up for in heart. The school community is amazing, with fun events throughout the year like Trunk or Treat, Christmas shops, spirit weeks, family celebrations, and a huge end-of-year event everyone looks forward to. In my role with PTL, I've had the unique opportunity to work closely with teachers, staff, and parents. Like any school, families sometimes come and go, but I can honestly say I've seen the administration approach difficult situations with prayer, communication, grace, and genuine care. They strive to put God first in their decisions, and I think it speaks volumes that I've seen several families return and re-enroll after leaving. Most importantly, this school has deeply impacted our family's life. The teachers, staff, and church community have become like family to us. These are genuine people who love God and truly care about the children they serve. We will forever be grateful for the friendships, faith, and opportunities this school has brought into our lives.

She sings songs with them, has circle time, and works with them on developmentally appropriate things like counting and colors.

I found the owner 13 years ago and the moment she held my 5 month old (now 13) I knew she was the one to help our family. She has the most incredible temperament. She strikes balance between love and discipline. She uses her education in child and development start to finish of every day. The kids are learning, laughing and loving. I used to call her the child whisperer, as she had 7 children all ages asleep for a nap at one time! Incomprehensible to most with multiple children, but such is the peaceful, comfortable environment she affords families like yours and mine. A huge bonus at this facility is the commitment to nutrition. Kids receive well-thought out snacks and meals, if desired. I'd stop your search any further if you want peace of mind knowing your child is in safe, loving hands... I'm a real live single mom who couldnt do it srill to this day without this care and support. The title of the facility captures it all. Its about our sweet angels being loved while parents or guardians have to be away... Eternally grateful....

We welcomed our second daughter who we signed up for the waitlist ASAP so she could attend once she was 18 months old in 2022. Our experience has been more than I could've ever dreamed. It truly feels like an extended family. We loved Miss Lorraine and Miss Michelle when they were directors and we love Miss Jacqueline who is the current director. So considerate, loving, and happy. Our kids were so blessed to be with Ms Elba (toddler class), Ms Angela and Ms Ozma (2's), Ms Debra (no longer there), Ms Lorraine, and Miss Bri (3's), Ms Rosadah (pre-k, but no longer there) and Ms Frances (kinder). I also need to mention Ms Evelyn because she's loved our girls even though she never directly taught them. I could not speak highly enough of these teachers. They are more than teachers. The guidance and love they showed our kids - It's something I will remember for the rest of my life. Honestly I can't even formulate words to express my admiration for them and gratitude. Truly phenomenal people who are a gift to this world. I am not typically an emotional person but I have been an emotional wreck the past month or so leading up to our girls' graduations. Leaving LSM and these teachers was so incredibly hard and something I am still trying to come to terms with. Our girls love them tremendously and I have the hardest time feeling like our next "big kid school" will even match this experience. I wish they went through elementary school - We wouldn't even think twice of running back!
