Good Shepherd School

Rev. Nick Kozel and his wife Caryn opened the first Good Shepherd School & Day Care in January of 1992 at the 991 Chicago Avenue campus.
They opened with eleven students in preschool, and by the fall of 1992 had enough students for a kindergarten class.
Our mission at Good Shepherd School is to instruct children in the Christian faith, provide them with a solid academic foundation, and thereby provide a needed service to our community.
