Welcome to Grace Lutheran School!

We provide a Christian preschool, elementary and junior high education that benefits each student as a whole person. We serve students as they grow in their relationships with God and in their self-understanding as unique individuals who are mentally agile, physically active, and skillful in their relationships with others and with God’s good Creation.

Our teachers are committed to educational excellence, provided in a safe, loving and God-pleasing setting that adheres to the Holy Scriptures. We teach from a carefully chosen curriculum, enhanced with creative teaching techniques, varied learning opportunities and use of technology. Parents and teachers work together to prepare our students to be lifelong learners, who can apply their knowledge and skill in meeting life’s challenges.

We believe that a church-based school has many advantages. Character is best developed in an atmosphere of warmth and kindness where each child participates in ways appropriate to his or her development, where teachers show interest and concern for each child, and where there are positive associations with the church and its leaders.

GROW . . . in faith!

REACH . . . for a healthy life!

ACHIEVE . . . academic excellence!

CREATE . . . new friendships!

EXPLORE . . . God's good creation!

Remember, parents, that you play a key role in the success of your child by being loving, supportive, and involved. The child who receives such encouragement will achieve great heights!

If you are new to GLS, I encourage you to explore our website, and if you have any questions, feel free to contact me. I look forward to meeting you!
