SAVE SCHOOL

Good Shepherd provides an opportunity for a child to develop intellectually, physically, emotionally, and socially within a nurturing and loving environment.

The program is designed to develop the whole child, using each child's talents, interests, and abilities.

The school serves as a bridge between the home and school, providing one of the first formal experiences of learning outside the home.

The school provides interaction among peers and opportunities to experience differences within society and promotes the acceptance of those differences.

While learning to share and cooperate with others, a child grows in self-esteem and positive self-image.

Hands on experiences and creative play are essential elements for social and personal development.
