Why Choose
Our School
Our goal at First is to create well-rounded individuals who grow in faith, wisdom, and compassion.
We achieve this goal by focusing on the following four main pillars:
At First Lutheran, we believe that education is not just about preparing students for exams, but for life.
Just as Psalm 119 reminds us that God’s word is a guiding light, our curriculum will serve as a source of direction for students, offering them knowledge and understanding grounded in Scripture. Students will learn to apply biblical principles to their academic pursuits, fostering a love of learning that lasts a lifetime.

Strong families are the foundation of a strong community, and we want to give families time to be a family.
That is why we purposely plan our school year calendar to ensure time off for families throughout the year, roughly once a month, for a long weekend.
In the end, we want the family to be at the center of all that we do as a school and for Family Weekends to provide opportunities for families to come together, grow in faith, and build lasting relationships.
We want to allow kids to be kids as much as possible. Exercise, movement, and creative play are essential to the healthy brain and physical development of the child.
We will encourage students to engage in regular physical activity, helping them to stay healthy and energized, while also developing teamwork, perseverance, and discipline.
At the end of each day, students will have had at least 45 minutes of recess and movement. On days that gym class is held, that number jumps all the way up to 75 minutes of physical activity.
Through personalized learning, social-emotional development, and opportunities for spiritual growth, we aim to nurture every aspect of each student’s life. Our goal is to create well-rounded individuals who grow in faith, wisdom, and compassion.
