Good Shepherd School for Children is dedicated to providing quality inclusive education for children with special needs and typically developing children from ages six weeks to six years. Exceptional learning and growth experiences are supplemented by therapeutic services as needed, up to age eighteen.

Our vision is to be an exemplary model for inclusive early childhood education, child care and therapy services on a local, regional and national level.


GSS has new therapeutic, recreational and social skills groups for children of all abilities.  We are enrolling now for classes that begin soon.  Click here for more information.

Did You know?

The success of the school is dependent on fundraising as tuition alone does not cover the daily operational expenses.  Revenue received from tuition and therapy services covers approximately 70% of the school's annual operating budget.  Fundraising activities are needed to raise the additional 30% of revenue required to operate a financially stable school. Please Donate Now -- it takes less than 2 minutes, but makes a world of difference!
