Word of God Catholic School

Word of God School is a wonderful place for children to grow and learn. The children experience a real sense of community and citizenship at this school. The academics are challenging and interesting. There is also a great deal of extracurricular activities in academics, arts, sports, and service. For a small school it is amazing the diverse programming that they offer. Children who graduate from Word of God School are well prepared for advanced classes in high school, and they have a well developed sense of citizenship.

I've been involved with Word of God for 5 years and every year I become more impressed with the school. The principle is caring and understanding, the teachers are phenomenal, the curriculum gets better every year. They are willing to try new ideas or pilot a learning program if it will benefit the children. Children who graduate 8th grade are always listed on honor rolls in their jr./sr. schools. This school is diverse in many ways; inclusive programs for learning disabled and deaf children,many extracurricular activities,a fantastic music program within the school,and Seton Center comes in to teach violin. This year they started a Junior Achievement Program that benefits K-8. The PTG really kicked-off this year and hosted fun family events such as Halloween/Christmas parties, and a super bingo night, with a Silent Auction to come. Your child will get a great education here. Come see the school!
