Good Shepherd Catholic School

Good Shepherd is an amazing school!!
I grew up going to a private school, my husband went to public schools. We toured 2 public schools before we looked at Good Shepherd, both appeared to be really good. We are a one income family and were worried about the cost associated with sending our children to a private school. Once we toured Good Shepherd, we just knew that is where we belonged. We will have our third child entering Good Shepherd next year and have never once questioned or second guessed our decision to join this school!
Good Shepherd is a very strong, caring, family community. A place where I know without a doubt that my kids are in wonderful hands. We couldn't be any happier with the level of education our children are receiving, the faith formation and the positive and supportive social atmosphere!

From the administration (Tom, Julie and Angela), to all the teachers and support staff, we could not have picked a better school for our children. Patience, structure, and inspiration are intertwined in an educational curriculum second to none. Religious instruction is an important part of the curriculum, but not in an overbearing way. There is a tremendous sense of community among the children and the parents - we really are a big family - and are honored to serve as a resource for one another. I could not offer a higher recommendation for an elementary school.

Our first year at Good Shepherd was in 2010 and we now have all 4 children attending Good Shepherd. We couldn't be happier with our experience and the education that our kids are receiving. I think my favorite part of Good Shepherd is the school community. My husband and I both grew up in small towns and we were looking for a community atmosphere and Good Shepherd is exactly that. We've had such wonderful experiences with other parents, the teachers and always feel welcomed. Good Shepherd is such a gem in the Twin Cities!

We could not imagine a better school for our daughter - and she agrees! The warm, personalized welcome and the feeling you are among friends and family is inescapable each time you walk into the building. The classrooms are integrated with the latest educational technologies that are seamlessly integrated into the curriculum. From the multiple family activities that are available throughout the year to the fantastic extracurricular opportunities - sports, scouting, band, chess club and summer care programs - the school is filled with teachers that care about the children. With each passing year, we remain pleased with our choice and the knowledge that our daughter is getting a wonderful education.

Good Shepherd is an outstanding school. Our three oldest children attend Good Shepherd and we have been so impressed with the academics, activities, and the school community. In addition to the wonderful teachers and the amazing principal, Mr. Z., their after-school and summer care leaders are outstanding as well. From homework room and weekly chess club to field trips every day during the summer, Good Shepherd really supports our two-working-parent family. We are very happy we chose Good Shepherd for our family!
