My children attended St. John Lutheran and excelled in high school sports and all attended colleges from Concordia University to The Ohio State to the University of Akron. The teachers practice tremendous care and guidance. The morals we expect in our home were all reinforced daily in the classrooms and in extra curricular activities. The love of God and His presence is recognized throughout the educational process. 'Be it known to all who enter here that Christ is the reason for this school. He is the unseen but ever present teacher in its classes. He is the model of its faculty and the inspiration of its students.' Parent

St. John Luther school is an amazing education center. Not only do the students learn academic curriculum, but they are also building a faith foundation starting in preschool. The staff are devoted to the students and very open to parent involvement. With the smaller class size there is more individualized attention, and the teachers are in tune with each student. The students are not looked at like just another name. I am a teacher myself with most of my teaching experience being in the public schools, and I would not have my children in any other school than St. John Lutheran.

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Unlike public schools, private schools are not always required to report data about their schools or not required to take the same tests as public schools. Many private schools take different standardized tests; however, that information is often made available only to families of enrolled students. We strive to acquire additional private school data whenever available.
