Wonderful, small class sizes. Every student really gets 1:1 specialized attention. It's the kind of school that all the staff know all the kids, regardless of grade level. All teachers and support staff are truly wonderful and kind. Kids hug each other in the halls and you really get the sense of community and belonging.

Our daughter has just blossomed in the pre-school program at Hope. I always feel that she is being well taken care of and loved. Even during covid the communication from the school was excellent and safety protocols were amazing. Also the community here is just outstanding.

What I loved about Hope Lutheran School was the small, close-knit Community it provided. I'm still in touch with the families and friends I met in my time there. The one thing that I would hope to see improve is their foreign language classes. It is becoming more and more important that children be educated with another language besides English. They need to have language class options and classes need to happen every day so they can comprehend what they learn.

It was the best decision we have ev...

We moved my son to Hope Lutheran after he suffered through a year of online learning during the pandemic. He was not in a good state. Being isolated was highly stressful for him. I was worried about him. His best friend had moved to Hope. I knew from him that his their grade's class was not full to...

I do not recommend this school at all. The teachers are always right and the students' opinion is never valid. Even if you voice your opinion, the school will not allow you to continue there. The teachers and principle continue to make favourites, they allow them to call down to the office any time...
