Good Shepherd School is a private, evangelical school providing excellence in Christian education.
The teaching and learning focuses on a quality, academic environment that values godly character and parental involvement.
As Christian professional educators, we have the responsibility to model the master of all teachers, our Lord Jesus Christ.
Only those who follow and seek to be like Christ can lead a child to truth and the understanding of a worldview that includes God.
God is the author of life. Education equips a person to experience and visualize the most meaningful and rewarding life possible.
Then it is reasonable to appropriate His principles and His Spirit to define and influence the best education for our children.
