Placing the spiritual growth of our students as our top priority does not mean academics are unimportant to us by any means.
St. John Lutheran School offers one of the finest college-bound academic programs available at the pre-kindergarten, elementary, middle, & high school levels. Students thrive in the close-knit, family-like atmosphere created by teachers who masterfully combine both traditional & innovative teaching methodologies.
Classrooms are animated & inviting. Teachers utilize their talents & skills guiding bright, curious children toward academic success. An accelerated, content-rich curriculum challenges students & provides an excellent foundation in all academic areas. St. John feels that building this foundation is an important aspect of preparing students for success at the university level.
In recent years, being technologically adept has become an essential quality for college students. In light of this, St. John has continued to maintain a comprehensive computer program for students in kindergarten through 8th grade. In addition to computer instruction, Middle School begins our “Bring Your Own Device” program.
In High School, devices have been an extremely integral part of St. John’s curriculum for many years. Devices are used extensively in the classroom as our teachers integrate traditional curriculum & modern technology. By the time students graduate, using technology in the educational process is second nature to our students.


Admission requires a review of academic performance, a commitment to our philosophy and values, proof of no previous disciplinary or attendance issues, and an interview with school administration. A determination of eligibility for admission using report cards, transcripts, standardized testing, and recommendations from previous teachers is part of the admissions process. Once admitted, students must work diligently to achieve and maintain academic success and demonstrate behavior that contributes positively to our St. John community.
See our “Portrait of a St. John Graduate” in the Admissions section of our website for a more detailed look at the impact a St. John experience can have on your child.
Our Christian Life Impact Classes’ mission is to help students internalize the Gospel Message of Salvation in Christ Jesus. As this department encourages this process, students will grow in their faith, and develop a Christian World View that will impact every area of their life.
“We believe that we cannot by our own reason or strength believe in Jesus Christ, our Lord, or come to Him; but the Holy Spirit has called us by the Gospel, enlightened us with His gifts, sanctified and kept us in the true faith. In the same way He calls, gathers, enlightens, and sanctifies the whole Christian Church on earth, and keeps it with Jesus Christ in the one true faith…” (Luther’s Small Catechism – Explanation to the Third Article of the Apostles Creed)
