Taking care of children is a delicate job and St. Luke Academy is failing. If it wasnt for a promise I made to the administrator as well as the fact that i know other children will have long term emotional and psychological issues from attending this school and be set back academically I might have left this alone due to St. Luke Academy being connected to a church, now that my daughter is safe. But it is my responsibility to speak up. The first two days at St. Luke our daughter came home from school with tears in her eyes. Then our daughter who is always upbeat and happy took on an aura of

We are so grateful we decided to enroll our first born at St. Luke Academy! As first-time parents, we were extremely selective/worried as where we may enroll our 18-month-old for daycare.

We cannot stress enough the care, attention, and passion Mrs. Therese and her staff put behind everything they do at the academy.

St. Luke Academy has been such a blessing for us! My son Nicholas started attending when he was 18 months old and he LOVES it! He loves to play with the all the kids, he loves craft time, and most of all, he loves his teacher Mrs. Silvana. St. Luke Academy uses a great communication program called "Brightwheel" to check in/check out of school and to provide updates and send photos of your child which is so lovely. The school takes great safety measures by checking everyone's temperature each day and washing the kid's hands upon arrival and frequently throughout the day. They give me a small report

This school is amazing! The kids are surrounded with a lot of love and care. I especially like the student to teacher ratio and the safety measures of the school. Tuition is also affordable; overall great school! I would definitely send my son there if we lived closer!
