St. John’s Lutheran School

Have two here now and wouldn’t change a thing. Tried the local public school in YL, and lasted three weeks before we came back to St Johns. It made us realize the value at St Johns. Great Preschool and excellent K thru 8. Kids leave prepared for high school and beyond. Would highly recommend this school for someone who wants a solid education backed by a Christian foundation. Faculty and the Administration are top notch.

Nice, clean and encouraging atmosphere. Kids are taught manners and about God.

I knew my children would attend St. John’s from the start. Their great-​grandparents were members of the church, their grandmother, great-​aunt and great-​uncle attended the school as well as my brother and myself, and multiple cousins. I knew what it was like then and had hoped it would be the same or even better now.
It is even better than I had hoped. The school offers so much. Academics are thorough and child-​specific; we couldn’t possibly try all the extra-​curricular activities the school offers, but enjoy all the ones we have; and, most importantly, the children are learning about Jesus as their personal saviour, morals and values and how to apply them in their daily routine.
Every teacher, faculty member and staff member that I have encountered thus far has «walked the walk.» I truly feel that our family is cared for and a necessary component of the overall school family.
I highly recommend St. John’s to any family looking for more for their children’s education.

I have children in 8^th and 4^th grades at St. John’s and love it. The academic instruction is rigorous. The technology 1:1 device program, band/​music, and art, as well as the after school sports program are excellent. After school care is on-​site and reasonably priced. All of this in a Christ-​centered environment makes SJLS an excellent choice!

Both my kids attended St Johns as did I a few years back… Excellent, caring teachers, fabulous facilities, very engaged leadership, and a strong Christian tradition. Many second and third generation families, but also many new families. Super combination of academics, athletics, music, art, and Christian values, wrapped up in a close family atmosphere.

As a parent in search of a reliable provider of quality education and a safe place to learn for my kids, St Johns has exceeded all of my expectations. My kids have become good learners and they also have a clear understanding of their place as servants of God. This school doesn’t give lip service to parent participation — it requires material (time and energy) participation from parents. It engages parents with required interaction with teachers. And as for the teachers and staff — professional, family-​oriented, and compassionate — every last one.

Both of my children have attended St. John’s since kindergarten. One is in high school now and one is in the middle school at St. John’s. The school has prepared them for life with strong academic skills and a strong set of Christian values.
The facilities are above par, super clean and constantly being updated. The classrooms are equipped with Smart Boards and the classroom materials are current. The middle school operates on a «one to one» lap top program.
The teachers and staff are caring and get to know each child as an individual. My children have completely different learning styles and personalities. They both love their school and each has been accommodated with their learning styles in the classroom.
Lots of activities are offered outside of the classroom. A great after school sports program, dance classes, music lessons, tutoring, are just a few of the things that are offered.
The principal is amazing and has made great strides in keeping St. John’s one of the best schools in the area by improving curriculum and overall student growth.
As a parent I feel the investment that I have made in my child’s education at St. John’s is one of the best decisions I have made. I feel they are safe, cared for and they are receiving a superior education in a prestigious school setting.
