“TCS has been an amazing environment for both our children.  The staff is not only nurturing and loving but have taught our children so much already.  Our boys truly love going to school and interacting with the amazing staff and their peers.”
Elizabeth Cassidy Berg
“All four of our children have attended TCS and we have been a part of this community for 11 years. It truly is a special place. Our children were well prepared for kindergarten; but more importantly they were loved and cared for. I never worried a moment after I dropped them off in the morning. They made enduring friendships, and we are so appreciate of all TCS has done for our family.”
Meg Scheu Sacks
“The Cathedral School has provided care for my daughter since she was 4 months old. The teachers are extremely warm and knowledgeable, and the school is committed to excellence as they cultivate the development of every child. My daughter loves coming to school to engage with her teachers and friends each day, and I believe this is a testament to the phenomenal learning environment at TCS! “
Rachael & Emmanuel Fortune
“We knew The Cathedral School was our first choice when looking at childcare options due to feedback we received from other families. Our son started at three months old and we are so appreciative for the care he has received in the infant room. His teachers are caring, attentive, and kind and the entire staff is friendly and welcoming. We are thankful for everything they do to keep our son happy and safe. We are grateful for TCS! “
Katie and Matt Griggs
“TCS has been an integral part of our family for almost 13 years. The school is an amazing nurturing and educational environment for kids. We were blessed to be able to send three kids through The Cathedral School starting in the infant room through Pre-K 4 and will be sad so leave the school when our youngest graduates in May.”
Anna and Kevin Valent
“The care and early education my daughter has received at Cathedral School over the past few years is truly unparalleled. Watching her run through the front door in the morning, excited for a new day, is a joy. I couldn’t ask for better teachers or a more compassionate staff. We are continually astonished – though not surprised – by her growth due to the loving guidance she receives daily.”
