We are so happy with LM's Spanish Immersion program and the impact it's had on shaping our children as global citizens. We've experienced kind and caring teachers and are grateful for the "extras" at LM that positively shape school culture (ie: chapel, invitation for parent involvement, optional nature hikes for elementary ages during recess, many varied clubs, service opportunities, etc). Our children are having a positive experience and we highly recommend LM!

We chose LM because we sought a school with high values and a welcoming community. My daughter says she felt welcomed by the students and teachers when she first arrived; this feeling never faded as she grew." - Mohieldin Suliman

"When we considered education options for our boys we knew that we wanted a Christian school that would support their faith formation, but were not willing to settle for subpar academics. At Lancaster Mennonite we have found rigorous academics, incredible teachers and a diverse school community. It is a privilege to have this experience, knowing that we have a partner in our children's education. Upon graduation, our oldest was more than prepared for his university experience both academically and emotionally. Lancaster Mennonite will continue to have our support!" - Scott and Brenda Zeevaart

We are very grateful for Lancaster Mennonite. All three of our kids graduated from LM well prepared for college. They have thrived due to the investment of the teachers and their personal attention. Academically, spiritually, and maturity-wise, our kids have benefited from this school. It was worth them sacrificed we made and we highly recommend LM.

The worst private school for international students. The management doesn't care about the students' education. We tried to meet with the superintendent over 5 times by emailing him, but he ignored us. Then, they expelled my son from the school without listening to his side of the story. After we paid over $90,000, my son is now at home without an education due to the school management's discrimination. If you are international student avoid Lancaster Mennonite School.

Current admin is tearing this school down. They have managed to rid everyone who holds PA admin certification. Admin has little to ZERO teaching/principal experience and continues to operate with conflict of interest. Board remains private, no transparency, does not provide minutes, not invited to meetings. What are they hiding? As parents, we continue to get new notifications that staff members are suddenly 'resigning' ever since new administration. We see the patterns! LM has managed to break trust. Dignity and honesty is lost. This school is currently not equipped to lead and support their teachers. Go elsewhere.

Outstanding education in a caring, nurturing environment! All five of our kids love their experiences at LMMS and LMH!

The administration is completely unresponsive to parent concerns, and doesn't inform parents of substantial proposed changes in the curriculum. They told parents a month before school began that the middle school would combine grades 7 and 8. My son now sits in pandemonium among 75 other students, with sub-groups constantly coming and going. The idea of combining 7th and 8th graders is idiotic. My son tells me that they're not learning ANYTHING. If they hadn't sprung this on the parents at such a late date I think many parents would have found alternative schools for their kids. As it was, it was too late to find any alternative other than the public schools or home schooling. I will shout from the rooftops, for all to hear, that LMMS is a disaster and a waste of money. What's worse, it's wasting valuable years of my son's education. If I pull him out and send him to another school for 8th grade he's going to be way behind because HE'S NOT LEARNING ANYTHING AT LMMS.
