Lutheran High School offers a rigorous college preparatory curriculum focusing on academic excellence and spiritual development. Faculty and staff are committed to biblical integration of the subject matter, while also investing in the discipleship of students. Many teachers are involved in extracurricular activities, impacting students’ lives beyond the classroom. Graduates of Lutheran High School are well-prepared academically and spiritually to serve and lead after high school.
Our Guidance Counselor, Ms. Cindy Brock, will provide individual attention to each student, ensuring that they have the credits necessary to achieve the degree the student seeks. Our faculty is available after school most days, as well as for scheduled family conferences when desired. We are eager to work together with families to provide a one-of-a-kind support system for our students.
A note from the Dean of Curriculum
Throughout the nearly fifty-year history of our school, the mission of Lutheran High School has always been to prepare young adults for Christian life while providing academic excellence in a Christ-centered environment.
How does Lutheran High School provide this academic excellence? Our curriculum is designed to promote readiness for the world beyond: college readiness, vocational readiness and spiritual readiness. Our aim is to arm students with the knowledge and skills to become lifelong learners, effective citizens, productive workers and members of the Body of Christ.
Students attending Lutheran High School can expect a digitally-enriched 1:1 environment where every student is given an Apple MacBook laptop to interface with course content and engage in 21st century learning. Our experienced staff of educators blends 21st century skills – critical thinking, collaboration, communication and innovation – with a traditional high school curriculum centered around reading, writing, mathematics, science, technology, government, history, world languages, physical education, theology and fine arts.
