Welcome to the 2023-2024 School Year!
​
We are excited to have both returning and new families at SJS! Our Lutheran School supports our families by teaching that love for God, love for others, and love for self guides our lives. We teach about kindness and compassion for others, and that Jesus will be our best friend...always. No matter what happens in our lives, a Christian Education is something that no one will ever be able to take away from us. We are so blessed to have a church and school that supports our families in loving and educating our children - and the children in our community. St. John has a beautiful history of Christian Education - and it is our hope and prayer that we can build on this history for years to come.
​
Thank you, God, for parents who understand the importance of a Christian Education.
Thank you, God for St. John Lutheran Church and School.
