My son Joshua has attended Downers Grove Christian school since 1st grade. The principal, teachers and staff are all amazing. They are not only dedicated to teaching the Gospel to our children but are very involved with each and every student. The classrooms are not over crowded and there are assistants helping in each grade. I highly recommend DGCS to anyone looking to grow their children in Christ but to challenge them academically.

For our four kids we could not have picked a more nurturing, caring, loving school. Staff and teachers truly and genuinely invest in the students and care for them. Education is top notch, all four of our kids went on to high school placing in all honors classes and pulling straight A’s.
