Our primary goal is to teach our children to communicate in the Greek language, to instill in them pride in our Hellenic heritage, and reverence for our Greek Orthodox faith. Parents are welcome to visit the classrooms and observe the class in session upon request to the clergy or the Principal. Call the church office if interested.
