Divine Redeemer Lutheran school is fantastic! I know my son is being cared for day in and day out when I drop him off. Not all schools offer that assurance. Not only do his teachers care immensely for him, but he has also excelled in his education in many ways. The smaller class sizes and caring teachers and faculty make all the difference at this school. To top it all off, Divine Redeemer brings Jesus` love to every student. I couldn`t ask for a better school!

I couldn't be happier with Divine Redeemer Lutheran School. There are so many pluses for choosing this school and it is worth every penny. Not only do my children absolutely LOVE it with all their hearts, they learn about Jesus every day and get to pray in class. Academics are outstanding at this school. My son is reading and doing math exceptionally (he's only 6). The school employs Love & Logic, which is amazing because it fits our discipline style at home. Our kids also get a heart for giving through DRLC as they encourage the kids to give and think about the less fortunate. All three of my kids will go here Pre K - 8th grade. Love ALL that DR has to offer!
