We love this school! Our children have been challenged academically and love coming to school! The teachers really know our children and adjust their teaching styles in order to make sure that our children are grasping the information and thriving. We have been very impressed with all of the extracurriculars offered at this school. Our girls enjoy the swim club and the music program and art programs are great! Plus, they are learning Spanish! The families have been very welcoming and friendly and we really enjoy being involved in this community.

We have two children at Faithful Shepherd and our experience here has been incredible. Our children have definitely benefited from teachers and administration that truly care about the students. The academic programs are very strong and the new STEM lab is great. FSCS also has a strong parent community that contributes to the very positive experience at the school. You and your children will love being a part of the Faithful Shepherd community!

Our family has grown exponentially by deciding to send our children to FSCS. Our kids have enjoyed and grown from dedicated teachers, active and supportive administration, and a huge group of engaged parents who care deeply about the village in which their children are being raised. The school is a beautiful and peaceful place, and they constantly strive to be better. Its a great environment where faith can be openly and lovingly shared while the kids are growing in their academic, physical, and spiritual lives. FSCS is a great community that you will be glad to be a part of...especially if you would like to be involved.

At FSCS we have experienced a sense of community, faith-based, action-oriented school curriculum, and now we cannot imagine anything else! We have had excellent teachers, each time a perfect fit for how my child learns in the classroom. The principal is an excellent leader and is involved, and is a positive presence in the school. The parent community is involved, friendly, and just a fun bunch of people. Some of my favority things about our school include: UNIFORMS! (less laundry at home, and kids get to know each other at school for their interests and personalities), Catholic mass each week (singing songs they know, with priests from each parish), Catholic education each day (little to no additional classes outside of school required for sacramental prep), and the rotating schedule of specialists each week (Spanish, art, computer, gym, library, and music). I love that as my children get into middle school (FSCS is K through 8) they will be in an environment that supports them through preteen, instead of an enormous middle school where they are expected to grow up too fast. Really, I could go on and on about what I love about FSCS!
