My daughter at Pilgrim Lutheran School located off 6th and Center. I am very pleased with the education she is receiving as well as the warm, welcoming environment the staff creates. I can always pop in and ask questions with no hesitation. The newsletter which is sent home weekly also helps me stay up to date. This is my daughter's 3rd year there and I love it!

This school has done wonders for our family, my kids love to go to school everyday. They love learning about God and also love when their class sings on Sunday's throughout the year. This school has alot to offer to help make life easier and all the staff, teachers and principal are very helpful and friendly!

We are at the Pilgrim Campus of the Concordia University School, and we love it there. Our experience so far has been wonderful. The teachers know and love our children - they are in K5 and 2nd grade this year. All the staff and teachers work so hard to teach our children and care for them. We would definitely recommend this school for families in Milwaukee looking for an excellent education choice!

Me and my family are new to the Milwaukee area and to Concordia university school. I have 2 children enrolled at Concordia and their transition has been great. The experience and intereaction with the teachers and principal has been outstanding. Thanks Concordia for all you have done And will do because i know you are striving for excellence and I love that they teach about God to the children as well. my children look forward to school everyday and that means a lot.

My 3 children are new to Concordia this year and I thought it would be a hard transition for them but thanks to the amazing teachers and gracious principal it has been easy for them....my children expressed dislike at 1st due to a military precision but I explained that teaches you discipline and gives you structure.... I love this school with its open door policy and the ability to be able to visit my children at my leisure... They provide a multitude of extra curricular activities and are always so friendly and willing to help when I stop by....I''m grateful that I made the switch!

I love the attention and care provided by all staff at the school. The curriculum is challenging and the principal and all other staff know each child by name from K4-8th grade. Great school!

My daughter is in K4 after completing K3 at an MPS school. I have been very satisfied thus far. She is learning, being challenged and enjoying it all at once. At the prior school, she essentially was retaught the information she knew, but at Concordia the teachers are in tune to what level students are on. The classrooms are small compared to other schools I looked at. The principal and teachers are also caring. The principal is there early for questions and teachers, at least the K4 teachers, but it seems like all are very experienced and caring. They were still helpful and responsive even when I had a concern.
