School Reviews

Our granddaughters attended & graduated from Good Shepherd. Above reproach at all times! The Spencers have made sure The Good News was taught & practiced. What a joy to still see Christian teachings still alive in our society. Our granddaughters are above the norm in knowledge & morals because of these back to basics teachings. What a joy to see schools assisting parents in good upbringing rather than betraying the family. Could not recommend this particular private school enough! Thank You, Lord!!!
