St. Paul's School in Oconomowoc is a truly special place. It's not the biggest or flashiest school around, but it has a heart and a soul that outshines all others. Our child is thriving under the patient and loving care they provide, and I can honestly say he is far advanced academically than his friends that attend public schools in the area. We are so thrilled to have discovered this little gem of a school and cannot wait to see the continued growth and maturity in our child they help to inspire.

St. Paul's has been a great home for our children to grow up in. Not only have we watched them grow academically and physically but also spiritually. The teachers provide a Christ-centered education that will prepare them for life outside the walls of St. Paul's. There are plenty of activities to do whatever their interests are. Some of my kid's favorite things to do are spend time with their chapel buddies!

St. Paul's is a 2nd family to their students and families! They offer the most loving environment and try to structure the curriculum to challenge each student where they are at. The staff goes out of their way to address any concerns or behavior issues immediately. The communication is amazing, the volunteer coaching and parent involvement are heartwarming. There are opportunities for growth in sports, education, community volunteerism, and faith development offered to each student. Most of these things are built into the fabric of St. Paul's. St. Paul's is everything you would hope for in an environment that isn't your actual home!
