What people are saying

I have two children that have attended Good Shepherd School. My oldest graduated in 2013 and had a wonderful experience there. He was also accepted into all the high schools that he applied to. I feel that Good Shepherd prepared him to be successful in high school. My younger son is graduating this year and has also had a great experience here. He is sad to be leaving what he considers to be his second home. As a parent I have nothing but wonderful things to say about the school and under the leadership of the new principal and the new Academy board, I see great things for the future of Good Shepherd Catholic Academy.

My children are comfortable at Good Shepherd, and I am comfortable knowing they are in a safe environment. I know every teacher, assistant, and office personnel by name. Worth every penny of the tuition. Close Quote
