As a parent, you want the absolute best for your child. St. Stephen's has made my sons the caring, moral, Christian young men that they are today. You will not find a better community of individuals who foster the teachings of Jesus Christ in the area. I am so very grateful for all that St. Stephens has given us.

We love this school. We have been at this school for the past 3 years and love it. It is definitely a second home for our children, a place where they feel safe, loved and educated. They also have high expectations for our children and the morals that we teach at home are carried over to the classroom. We look forward to our children continuing their education at this school. My best advice if you are looking for a school for your children: dont base your decision on reviews, visit the school and decide what's best for your family.
