The LC - MS is a church body that values education. Lutheran schools are the Church's way to deliver that education to youth across the world. Lutheran schools are not just for Lutheran Christians. They're not even just for Christians. Lutheran schools can benefit all children and families in many ways. Some of the most noticeable benefits include small class sizes, loving and dedicated staff, a connection to one of the largest church and school networks in the US, and an unwavering dedication to making sure each child feels known and cared for. Below you will find some of the information that make LC - MS schools so special.
