St. Matthews is genuinely one of the best schools around. The compassion and love that students receive from the entire staff is unmatched. I really appreciate the understanding from everyone that my children are a whole person. There's no question their entire well-being is nurtured; emotional, spiritual, physical as well as academic. As a former educator, and then later a homeschooling parent, there really isn't any other school I would trust with my children. Thank you St. Matthew's for everything that you do for children.

St. Matthew's is a wonderful school and has helped our son learn and grow in a warm, family focused, Christian environment! We have been very blessed by experienced teachers and staff. We chose St. Matthew's because of the smaller class sizes, center based preK4 classroom style, and Christian environment and have been very pleased.

My son has flourished at this school. His motor, speech and social skills have developed quickly and dramatically during the first half of his Pre-K2 year. The classes are small, personalized, and perfect. The teachers’ and teachers’ aids are intelligent, patient and wonderful. I couldn't recommend this school more.

This school is amazing! The staff is so welcoming, and the environment is so inviting! My daughter looks forward to school every day and enjoys learning! The class size is great; she is comfortable and is normally very shy!! She has grown so much as a student in the past three years and I know it's with the help of St. Matthew's! I especially love knowing she starts her day with chapel! Hands down love this school!

St. Matthews has been an excellent school for our children to start at. Their small class sizes allow the students to receive individualized attention. Attending chapel daily helps to build a great character in the children. We love St. Matthew's!
