I happened upon NSUC by chance a few years. After my first visit, I wanted to come back. I have…read morebeen a member of many churches in my life, and by far, NSUC is the most welcoming and friendly church community I have ever encountered. The church is filled with people who truly care about creating a supportive community. Of course, there is Lucas - the pastor. He is amazing. He is brilliant, and his sermons always make me look at things in a new way and seem to hit what I need to hear on that day. Yet he never speaks in a way that makes you feel less intelligent than him. Finally, the music is amazing! So many talented people providing music for the services!

The schools are private, nonsectarian, not-for-profit and are a recognized leader in Illinois Montessori education. Of the hundreds of Montessori schools in Illinois, only 17 are accredited at the highest level of excellence by the American Montessori Society - 4 of those schools are the North Shore Montessori Schools. Children's house offers programs for toddlers, 2 year olds and 3-6 year olds. The school is located in a beautiful, spacious setting and offers half day, school day and individualized programs. Summer Camp is also available at our Riverwoods and Glenview/Northfield campuses. Montessori Elementary education is available at our nearby Riverwoods Montessori School.

They took the time and interest in getting to know their students. Small classes made a big difference. The facilities were wonderful. The cafeteria always had hood food. Close to Chicago and all the activities of a big town. A great place to truly learn.

Trinity rocks! I completed my MDiv at TEDS and had a terrific experience. The professors are…read morescholarly and yet caring, the teaching is deep and yet pastoral, and the students and faculty come from a variety of nations, ethnic backgrounds, and theological traditions, all under the broad umbrella of the gospel and the mission of God in the world. TEDS seeks to keep one foot firmly planted in the academy and the other foot equally firmly in the mission of the church. A great place to study if you are looking to be a pastor, a scholar, a professor, or Christian leader.

The preaching by Pastor Lee Eclov is founded in Scripture as he takes you through God's word verse by verse. They are associated with the Evangelical Free Church of America. They have many students from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School who attend, and add a unique feel to the church. The church has all age groups, however, and a wonderful God-honoring spirit exists here.

My wife and I experienced this from the minute we walked in the door. This church has all ages in attendance and they are serious believers but yet they know how to have fun as well. The Pastors have great senses of humor and make us laugh often. I encourage everyone who reads this review to give this congregation a visit. They are a blessing!!! Real people, with real issues, just looking to be there for one another. They get out of the "holy" huddle often and actually go into the community to do the work of G-d. So many congregations are so inward, but NOT this group. Hope to see you soon!!!

This church is so welcoming and friendly. Pastor Bryan did a baptism/child dedication for my 1…read moremonth old and it was beautiful, major waterworks for mama! He tied Sarah's baptism into the service beautifully. I also really enjoyed the little moments of humor the Pastor threw in. At the beginning of the service they did a childrens moment when the kiddos can sit at the front and a leader talks to them about God for a few minutes, my boys (2 & 4 years) loved it. Right after that, Pastor Bryan asked who needed prayer/had good news they wanted to share. I was surprised at how many people spoke up, it was very moving to hear all their stories. It felt like such a close knit group, like an actual family, something you just can't get at a large church, unless you join one of their small groups. My boys loved the singing as well, we then sent them to the childcare area during the service so that we could focus on the message. They also have a cool playground that my boys loved. We did an egg hunt for Easter on the church grounds and it was very well run, nothing like some of the egg hunts that can be like a toddler hunger games and end in 2 seconds. Highly recommend!

St. Gregory's Preschool (located in and affiliated with St. Gregory's Episcopal Church) is a…read moretotally awesome preschool in Deerfield. I can't say enough good things about it. And besides being an awesome program, their tuition can't be beat (it's quite a bit less than most other preschools in the area). My 2 daughters attend - they love it. It is a smaller school with very personalized attention. The teachers/director are so nice, caring, and nuturing (and super smart!). I believe they all have their masters. The program is a great balance of play time, hands on learning, small and large motor development, etc. They incorporate lots of science and math besides the usual reading and writing. The teachers/director have good control of the classroom and are consistent and fair, teaching the kids good social skills. The program is Christian-based, but they keep things Judeo-Christian from what I can tell. They celebrate the Christian holidays, but they are cognizant that not all the students are from a Christian background and are respectful of that. The preschool program is a morning program and they are open 5 days a week. You get to decide how many days (and which days) your child will attend. Potty training is not required, though they can't change diapers (they are currently DCFS certified). They also have Kindergarten enrichment in the morning and afternoon. In the morning, the kids of all ages are together; they split into skill level for letter-writing, etc. That really seems to help with the building of social skills. My girls love it that way.

This is one of the best high schools in the nation for academics. If you're into sports, it's tops…read morefor that as well. The academic program here is so intense that even though I graduated somewhere around the bottom 1/3 of my class (I blame my ADHD and general teenage boredom), I was so well prepared that college was a total breeze by comparison. I was a student so long ago that I doubt any of the teachers I had are still here, but I found them to be mostly very supportive and of high quality. Some of them took a liking to me and were especially helpful. My suggestion to parents is to try and get your kid involved in other activities here besides just class. If they're not into sports, DHS has all kinds of clubs, youth groups, yearbook, newspaper, etc. Admissions people like seeing this stuff on your college application and it helps a lot with expanding your social circle.
