School Reviews

We are so happy that we sent our two daughters to Concordia Lutheran School through their grade school/ junior high years. They were more than prepared to enter public high school and beyond due to the high-quality education they received. One of the bonuses of attending a smaller, Christian school is that the teachers and staff truly care for your children. I am so thankful that my children were taught to pray every day and in all things. They learn to care for and pray for each other. And isn't that the goal? To raise competent, kind human beings :)

I would describe Concordia in one word "family". We chose Concordia for our 3 daughters simply because there's no better school. Concordia has been loyal to its Christian values and they don't apologize for its rigorous academics. My daughters have achieved professional success as a result of having started with an excellent academic and spiritual foundation.
