School News and Information

Preschool

Concordia offers flexible full and half-day preschool programs for 3 and 4-year-old children.  We maintain a small student-teacher ratio to ensure that your child is getting a personalized education from the very earliest age.  Our preschool programs give children early exposure to a Christ-centered education while preparing them for kindergarten.

Grade School

K-6th grade students are engaged in a rigorous comprehensive curriculum that integrates innovation and technology with traditional approaches for a balanced and well-rounded education.  Students receive religious instruction daily in addition to chapel service once a week. 

Our Commitment to Christ-Centered Education

For the 2024/2025 school year, Concordia Lutheran School has a projected student enrollment of 115 students from preschool through 6th grade. We offer small class sizes for excellent student-teacher support, ensuring personalized attention.


Our mission is to teach the importance of Christ's love in daily life. Our staff demonstrates this love through their interactions, and our curriculum integrates a Christ-following worldview. Additionally, students participate in weekly chapel services and monthly service projects, reinforcing the teachings of Jesus.
