This is the most incredible school in MPS. The teachers are outstanding. I had the opportunity to…read morework side by side to many of the teachers here through student teaching placements. I've had at least some contact with almost every teacher here and have really seen amazing work. As a student teacher in the area, I worked in Greenfield, Brookfield, Wauwatosa, Franklin, and Milwaukee schools and this one has been my favorite. The families here are very supportive of the unique education their children are blessed to have. If you are looking at possible schools for your child, research immersion style learning and see if it is for your family. All topics are taught in German from pre-K onward all day. The kids pick it up through exposure and practice as they enter upper classes. English instruction starts in 2nd grade. Many think the children will be behind - not the case. The school actually has above average scores in all content areas. They still can speak English fine because they hear it outside of school and begin an understanding of language structure from being taught mechanics of it. The kids here are also exceptional. Much fewer issues than other schools. Good neighborhood too. If you plan to enroll the cut off age is 1st grade or they are too far behind. There is also a waitlist, so enroll as soon as enrollment opens up!

St. John's Northwestern Academy has been an outstanding experience for our daughter. Being a…read moreprivate school with tuition, it has been well worth it any monetary sacrifice. Since starting in January, she has exceeded all of our expectations academically, personally, and socially. The structure, leadership, and supportive environment have helped her grow in confidence and maturity in a very short time. She has become confident, and so much more happier attending school. We are extremely grateful for the positive impact the school has had on her development and future.

I am a very old graduate of St. John's. As a matter of fact, I attended St John's way back when it…read morewas just called St John's Military Academy. I was blessed to have been sent there by my parents "to straighten me out". It was truly, the best thing that ever happened to me... not that I thought I needed straightening out. St. John's created the environment where I could concentrate on the important on coursework and sports that I needed and/or enjoyed. We marched to breakfast, lunch and dinner. We marched to church (or were bussed to the church of our choice.) I attended for three years and it became the most important three years of my life. My Latin teacher taught me how to think and how to obtain my goals in life. I loved math, biology and physics. I was captain of the gymnastics team. It was an absolute positive experience. I graduated in 1959. I attended college (Engineering), then joined the United States Coast Guard. They sent me to US Navy Flight Training and I became a Coast Guard Air/Sea Rescue pilot for 7-years. United Airlines then hired me to fly for them. After 15 years with United, they brought me into upper management where I Worked and flew as a Flight Standards Captain, flying Boeing 747's around the world. I flew until age 60 (Mandatory retirement age back then), with over 20,400 hours of flight time. Thank you St. John's! You made that all possible. I have two younger brothers who also graduated from St. John's and they both were as successful as I was in adult life.

I am a DSHA alumna, as well as a current volunteer. I am so blessed to have had the opportunity to…read moreattend this school. Prior to high school, I was an MPS, and then a WAWM public school student. DSHA is such a positive world of difference compared to public schools. The teachers at DSHA truly care about the girls, ALL of the girls. They expect excellence because they know you are capable of excellence. They truly care, and want to see you do well. This is not just a "paycheck" for them. The academics are stellar with an abundance of AP courses offered. How many high schools can say not only did 100% of students graduate, but were ALSO accepted into 4-year universities? Very few. DSHA has a fantastic athletic program as well with quite a few championships. Many athletes are student scholars. Lastly, DSHA is a school centered around the Catholic faith with theology classes, retreats, and service opportunities. A student does not have to be Catholic though to attend as there are students of Jewish, Muslim, and Protestant faiths. DSHA transforms girls in to strong, confident, well-rounded, educated young ladies ready to take on the world! A DSHA grad is a force to be reckoned with. Please do not take my word for it though. Visit their website, and check them out. Their statistics speak for themselves.

Things I Like About This High School's Programs-…read more They offer all types of classes, for any people of any age. Anything from cooking to sports to swimming. My daughter takes infant swim classes here, they start at 6 months. I also lap swim here occasionally. The teachers here are attentive and well prepared. They fill up the half hour with a good variety of games and exercises. The lifeguards are always on point. The other workers are kind and happy to answer any questions. The pool and locker rooms are clean. The front desk is filled with drinks and snacks for sale in case you work up an appetite. 8 Weekly Infant Swim Classes cost a measly $26 for residents, and about $10 more for non-residents. All the classes are pretty cheap. A Thing That Mildly Annoys Me About This Swim Class- This class started with about 25 kids. About half fell off after Week 2. Now, just after Week 6, there is only 4 kids left. I not only paid for this class to get the Little One used to the water, but also to meet other kids and maybe get some play dates. C'mon, parents, keep the kids in class! Things I Hate About This High School's Programs- We're going into the Seventh Week this week. We paid for 8, and the instructor tells us we have two more classes, but the people at the desk tells us next week is the last week no matter what. Can we get on the same page please? I like to take a lot of pictures and videos of my daughter as I try to chronicle her life. There happens to be a woman in our class who must wear a string bikini to every class. I know she's worked very hard to get a nice body six months after childbirth and normally I would be like any other red-blooded male in this World and not mind it at all. But I'll be damned if this woman does not walk into every shot and photobomb every picture. I'm just a guy with a summer sausage in his Speedo short of my daughters baby movies being MC Hammer's "Pumps and a Bump" video. http://youtu.be/Vk1YtbkZTqc Take some classes here. It's worth it!
