(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I've been attending Shalom for 12 years now (K-11), and I've enjoyed every minute of it. I learned and grown so much in my Christian faith, and have been taught lessons that will last me a life time. Not only is the academic schedule quite excellent the other school activities and athletics are great as well. As I now begin to apply for colleges I've begun to see how superb my education at Shalom has really been. I also participate in Choir and Drama in the High School. Both of these programs are also exceptional. I believe you cannot fully appreciate all of what Shalom has to offer without coming to visit, I hope to see you there!!!
