Lamb of God Lutheran School

This is my son's 3rd year at LOG and we couldn't be happier. LOG has small class sizes and an outstanding caring staff. My son is a full grade ahead in math and english and enjoys going to school. This year will be the start of the new Rosetta Stone Spanish program so we are excited about that as well. The principal was named administrator of the year last year and is top notch. She worked very hard to earn that reward and it shows. They use the money they have very wisely and always spend on upgrading curriculmn or adding something they didn't have before. Each class is equiped with smartboards and my son learned the basics of an Excel spreadsheet and a powerpoint presentation at the age of 6. The parents at LOG are also very involved and send their children here b/c they know the public school system is not what it should be. LOG is much cheaper than Merryhill and Challenger and they actually care about your child. Not just the money they get from each pupil. LOG is not about profits, if that was the case they would be charging a lot more. I love the religion the children get and the messages the children get from the scripture such as just being kind to others.

My daughter attended the full day Prek for 2011-2012, we were so impressed with number of things she learned. I like that the bible stories are taught to the children and Christian principles. She is already ahead of the game compared to kindergarten students in public. The only thing that was a disappointment was that they told me that they would have Spanish lesson once a week and dont recall that ever happening. Other than that the school is GREAT for the price considering Challenger is up the street and they want 2 arms and a leg for their education. My daughter is going back for 2012-2013 school year.

My daughter was in the 3/4 program this year and absolutely loved it! She learned so much and had a wonderful teacher. I wouldn't put her anywhere else for preschool and can't wait to see her go to the elementary school there as well.

Lamb of God was a great school for my child! It prepares students like mine to find success at Faith Lutheran High School. The current principal in her third year was just named Administrator of the year for their district of the LCMS. (Which I learned includes all of AZ, and parts of CA and NV.) If you are in North Las Vegas or the NW area of Las Vegas and want a great, Christian School, please check them out. If you want your child to attend Faith, this is a great feeder school for them as well!

Lamb of God has been an amazing school for our children. The new core knowledge curriculum has young children studying native american tribes, the 7 continents, George Washington Carver, The Wright Brothers and many other areas as kindergarteners that then builds into Anicent Egypt, Ancient Greece, Mediveal Times, Shakepeare and it goes on and on. We love the small class sizes and individual attention the students get. The students are one grade level ahead in math (4th grade is finishing 5/6). The staff as a whole gets along great and creates a family atmosphere. I love that my children are both known by name by all the staff. The principal has done an outstanding job the last few years bringing many improvements to the school. We look forward to our children getting to experience Rosetta Stone Spanish curriculum next year along with the continued computer curriculum Beyond Technology. We feel very blessed to have our children at this wonderful school.

Fantastic! My kids have been there for four years and I would never send them anywhere else. The staff and adminstration are so loving and so dedicated to providing the very best for each child. I cannot recommend this school highly enough!

Lamb of God Lutheran School has wonderful teachers and a low student/teacher ratio. The school offers a challenging academic program in a loving, Christian environment. It offers the latest technology in the classrooms such as up to date computers and promethium boards. The school embraces a caring, safe environment for the children. The community of the school is like one big family. My 2 children have been enrolled in the preschool and elementary school for 5 years now and wouldn't dream of sending them anywhere else. We love Lamb of God and we know they are getting the best education.

My child has been at Lamb of God for years. We originally chose this school for the Christian education, small class size, and family environment. We have not been disappointed!

My son has attended Lamb of God since preschool (4K). Originally, we had planned for him to attend kindergarten at the public school in our area. We were impressed by the preschool and deterred by the public school kindergarten class sizes so we decided to continue his education at Lamb of God for just one more year. Once again, we were so impressed with the curriculum and the school staff that we decided to continue our son's education into first grade, which is were he is at the present time. By the second month of kindergarten, our son was reading and by the end of kindergarten, he was reading chapter books. Both of his teachers for kindergarten and first grade are so supportive of any of his needs and truly care about all of the students succeeding. Also, I love the school having a christian atmosphere.

I don't believe that this review is accurate. "I love the new Core Curriculum and the specials at the school. My child is exposed to Art, Spanish, Science Lab, and others." My child is not as exposed to... Art, and Spanish as mentioned in the prior statement, and we have yet to see a Science lab on the campus. I can verify that my child's lunchbox often comes back home full, she is limited on bathroom breaks during class time and rarely washes her hands during the day (including lunch). The interactive white boards are a great asset to any classroom, if they were used other than a projection screen. The teacher/student ratio is better than public. If your child needs extra attention academically or behaviorly... the school does not have the resources to help. LOG does have some great teachers, but they also have some not so great teachers. If you have a child that is an auditory or visual learner they should do fine (1-5).

This school has definitely had it's tug of war between elementary and preschool. They have had to "clean house" & hopefully refocus as a whole. From other reviews, it's obvious there is a great deal of bitterness. I know my child's education has never suffered. It was a bit frustrating to watch adults behave like children. There was a great deal of animosity before, & the preschool principal left to open her own school. Some of the preschool teachers followed her, but that doesn't mean that the existing staff is not excellent. I don't know of any teacher who has not sent their kids to LOG if they could afford it. My child consistently scores way above average when compared with the same grade across the country. She has attended since preschool and only has a few years left. Whatever troubles existed, never affected my child's education. I was one of the furious parents when the tug of war was happening, but I kept my child there cautiously and watched to make sure it did not affect the quality of her education. It did not. It's a small school. People are passionate when it comes to their kids. Give it a try, and if it works for you, then great. If it doesn't, then leave.

Lamb of God has a highly experienced staff and principal who truly care about students and their education. My child has received an exemplary education and is advanced compared to peers. The school features a caring Christian environment combined with the Core Curriculum, technology and extra curricular activities. I would encourage anyone looking for a private school in the northwestern valley to consider Lamb of God.

My children have attended Lamb of God from preschool and now into the elementary school. I am very impressed with the teachers and prinicipal. It is a very loving enviroment and the teachers know and care about all of the students even if they are not in their class. We are impressed with the curriculum and the school's focus on technology. The school is helping our family to instill Christian values to our children. Most parents are very involved in the school. We recommended LOG to two families this year and they will be starting at the preschool in the fall. We stay because our kids love going to school everyday and we are very happy with their academic achievements and progress.

LOG is an exceptional school that enriches my child both intellectually and spiritually. She is becoming a wonderful young lady due to the teachers and the administration at LOG. We have been at LOG for almost five years now and I would not have it any other way. The only "bad" thing about LOG is that someday we are going to have to leave! I am truly blessed for the principal at LOG as she inspires my child to do her best and for the teachers and ALL their hard work! Thank you for such an amazing educational experience in Las Vegas!

My child came to Lamb of God in 5th grade after attending public school for years. She was so far behind in all areas and very shy and withdrawn. Thanks to extra care and help from her teacher, within a few months, she was catching up and and had made many friends. She got involved with the sports and after school activities and went from hating school, to loving it and coming home telling me everything she had learned! She left 5th grade a different student than when she had started and I am so thankful to her wonderful teacher and Lamb of God.

Lamb of God Elementary School has quality, caring educators and a very experienced principal. For these reasons and the support of the new pastor, the elementary school will continue to thrive. The recent additions of Core Curriculum and white boards will enhance these positive attributes. The teacher-student ratio is great. My child has been very happy at this school and scores well above the national average in standardized tests. This school is on the right path.

I love the new Core Curriculum and the specials at the school. My child is exposed to Art, Spanish, Science Lab, and others. There are excellent after school activities provided on site and the school has a family feel. The teachers are committed to the school and the mission of teaching. It is truly a place where children can be their age and grow in a safe environment.

Hilarious reading the comments... love how people either know whats going on or are completely clueless to the situation. Anyways not a bad school but defiantly not a great one, it has such great potential if the administration can just keep from tearing each other apart. With the pastor and new principal (who is now in charge of the preschool too) I think they are finally on the right track.... we'll see what happens.

The kindergarten program at this school is exceptional! The teachers are highly qualified, experienced, and love what they are doing. The teachers believe teaching is a ministry and the quality Christian education the children receive is priceless. My daughter came out of the three year old preschool class reading and has simply flourished in kindergarten this year. All the technology in the world cannot take the place of a caring and committed teacher, eager students, and supportive parents. This school is a blessing!
