What parents say

Overall my family and I are happy with this place. The teachers listen to and care for the kids in a mentor way rather than just a teacher. I have 4 older kids who all went through Himmelrick and have all succeeded in school.

Hands down one of the greatest schools my children have attended. After looking at some of the other reviews I can tell the parents who left one star are just “Karen’s” for lack of better words.

Did some work here, I saw how the workers interacted with the kids. I couldn't believe how well and involved they staff was. They were teaching these kids and having them say please and thank you to each other. I was shocked, I know its sad, bit I was amazed that the kids here were being taught life lessons that I thought were a thing from the past. I would absolutely bring my children here.
