TOP MATH SCORES FOR 8th GRADERS

admin — Sat, 21 Jan 2012 22:07:10 +0000

Annually our students take the Stanford Achievement Test or SAT in the spring of the year for all students in grades K-7.

Eighth graders take a test from the ACT group called the EXPLORE Test. We just received the results from the EXPLORE Test the eighth graders completed in the fall of 2011.

While our students greatly exceed the national norms in every subject, 27 of our 34 eighth-graders scored above the 90th percentile in Math. In addition, 9 of the students scored at the 100th percentile according to the ACT.

Congratulations, 8th graders, GREAT JOB!

Prospective Parent Meet & Greet

admin — Mon, 02 Jan 2012 23:25:58 +0000

As Christians we are often made to feel that in order to experience academic excellence, we must sacrifice the values we hold dear. What if you could have both? What if there was a place that held the spiritual and academic formation of your child in equal esteem? Green Park is such a place and our education will help families grow in faith and children are prepared for the next phase of their academic career.

St. Louis is rich in educational opportunities. We have strong public and private elementary schools. The challenge is not finding a good school; the challenge is finding the best fit for your family.

Please join us and learn more about Christian education at Green Park Lutheran School. Sit in a class, tour our campus and meet current Green Park parents.
