I am a parent of 2 children that attend Grace Lutheran's preschool. I have also collaborated professionally with staff there. I can not say more positive things about this school. The teachers and administration are warm and nurturing. It feels like a family and my children are incredibly happy. I am allured by the tuition fee public schools, but I just don't think that I will be able to take my kids out of this wonderful school.

By far the best academics and Christian environment in Key West. It offers up through 8th grade now. The teachers are awesome and the curriculum is tailored to each child.
