Welcome to Good Shepherd School, serving children in preschool through eight grades. Our faculty and staff strive to help your child become a Disciple of Christ by helping him or her grow spiritually, intellectually, socially, emotionally and physically. At Good Shepherd School we partner with you, the parents, your child’s first teacher to help your child grow and succeed. Along with our entire parish community, we encourage our children to be lifelong learners, with a commitment to service, family and the Catholic faith. We offer our students more than an education; we offer them a formation that will give them tools for a successful life.  At Good Shepherd we set standards of excellence in academics and behavior. The staff works together to create a loving, challenging, Christ-centered environment for our students, where they are inspired to reach their full potential. We offer a unique small school environment that cultivates a family-type climate. We have differentiated multi-age classrooms that meet the needs of our diverse learning community. At Good Shepherd we are preparing students to be successful not only today but also tomorrow by giving them a strong faith based academically sound formation.

Our mission at Good Shepherd School is to ensure that our students know that they are loved, important and that they are a “child of God.” I invite you to visit our school and see us “shepherding in the light of Christ.”

Principal

Mission

We are a Catholic community dedicated to academic excellence and lifelong discipleship in Christ.

Purpose

Good Shepherd School is a faith community where Christ at the heart of everything we do! Our children are viewed as disciples on their way to becoming saints through daily prayer, attending Mass, participating in sacraments, learning about our faith, contributing in service projects, and living out the gospel. We strive to do more than prepare our students for academic achievement, we prepare them for lifelong moral and spiritual growth.
