Saint Demetrios Greek School

Our school is designed to offer children from kindergarten through grade 8 a strong foundation in the Greek language while immersing them in our rich traditions. We provide a nurturing environment where every child can thrive, and are able to offer small class sizes, hands-on learning and a combined language and dance program, as students have the opportunity to participate in Greek dance classes after lessons. By enrolling your child, you’re not only giving them the gift of a second language but also the chance to connect with their heritage in a meaningful and fun way.
