Parent Testimonials
“My daughter took to this school so quickly. She was warmly welcomed into the class and quickly felt at home. The head of the school is actively involved in daily activities, including morning prayers, is genuine, and clearly love this school and want what’s best for the students. Parents have been friendly, and there are lots of opportunities for extracurricular activities for various age levels as well. Great, well-rounded curriculum. The strong presence of Jesus in the classroom and in the teachers’ hearts. Even the Pledge of Allegiance is done in the mornings. Kids learn respect, honor, and love, plus the importance of doing their best.”
“Something Special – LGCS is a unique and special place. The kids that grow up there are so amazing and have such sweet spirits. It is a family atmosphere, and they pour love into the kids. Such an amazing place for kids to grow and thrive is rare.”
“I believe a warm family atmosphere, encouraging kids to grow and thrive, is an important thing to achieve. Academics are very important as well but only meaningful when a person has a good character. I find LGCS has what I’m looking for in a school. [I took a tour] and it reminded me of a very good memory from a church of my childhood. Kids waiving to us with a smile made us happy, and I found myself imagining my son there.”
