St. Johns Lutheran School, PK-8 (Private)

My child has attended St. John's since Pre-K. She is now a graduating 8th grader. The school has been the best experience. She has made life-long friends and enjoys going to school. That is alot to say when a middle school student wants to go to school! The teachers are amazing and truly care about your child. A great school!

We are very happy with the school. We have one child in Pre-school and another in elementary school. We live in Santa Ana and were looking for a high quality Protestant private school close to our home. We wanted a school with great academics that reinforced our Christian values and found it in St. John s. We especially like the close relationship between the school and church. The new principal is excellent and the entire staff is very positive.

This is a great school. I love its safe environment, both physically and spiritually.

Pros: Christ-centered learning in a beautiful setting. Cons: worse teacher to student ratios than public schools (by far), very average curriculum, no specialization. This school had far less to offer than other private schools and, sadly, most public schools.

Our daughter has attended St. Johns preschool program the last two years and we have been happy with the school & staff. Its a very clean, safe & nurturing environment. The staff are very caring and supportive. And its great that the kids are learning about God, along with their abc's.

Three years ago we enrolled at St. John's and we absolutely love it. The education and teachers are the best around. Very caring and supportive of all the students. There's a great family bond at this school because so many of the students and families attend the church, but even if you attend another church (like ourselves) you still feel a part of that bond. Excellent school!

My child attends St. John's and loves it, as do I. The curriculum is outstanding and challenges the students to reach their highest individual potential. The teachers are amazing, loving, and committed to providing a high quality education with God as the foundation for these kids' lives. It really is a family atmosphere, and as non-members of the church, we have found the welcome from other parents and the teachers to be genuine and warm.

I have two children at St. Johns. It is a great school that addresses the entire child. Academically it is strong in all core subjects and the kids get exposed to so many other subjects such as art, music, and sports. St. Johns is God centered education with teachers that care about the kids not the paycheck. It is a loving and friendly environment with plenty of parent involvement. There is opportunity for each child's passions to grow. I would tell anyone to join the St. Johns family. I have very happy, confident children.

I'm not a parent but i went to St. Johns for two years, and i hated it. The students there were very mean and i felt really out of place there. Though some of the teachers were encouraging some of them also made me feel less than adequate. My experience at this school was horrible and i would hate it for any one to have to go through what i went through at this school.

Wonderful school filled with awesome parent support, loving teachers and excellent run school office. Everyone knows eachother and their families lending to a secure sense of community. The teachers all love what they are doing and enjoy sharing about god's love.

St. john's is a wonderful school. Not only are the children that attend the school there a loving influence but as well the teachers who go out of their way in helping in anyway possible. There is a music conservatory on the grounds to learn a variety of instuments and help with vocals and there is much school spirit for the sports and after school activities. Parents are encouraged to participate if possible and that increases in the closeness of the st. john's community.

We have one child who has graduated and 2 children remaining at St. Johns. School has undertaken major steps in developing the technological aspects of education with new school faciliities and science rooms. Computers in the classroom has been enhanced. School is now developing a resource lab specifically for ADD students w/ disabilities. Teacher involvement w/student exceptional.
