Kurt Schmidt Principal 5th Grade Teacher

Dear Potential Panther Parent,

Welcome to our website, and thanks for clicking on the link to find this message about St. Paul Lutheran School.  While an on-campus visit will reveal much more than this letter, please read on so you can discover a bit more about our focus that makes our school a fantastic environment for your student.

We are a Christian school, affiliated with the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod, that shares the love of Jesus all day long and connects with Him throughout our curriculum, our Handbook, our weekly chapel services, and within every classroom. We regularly study God’s Word, apply it to our lives and situations, and strive to live accordingly. We believe and teach that true joy and salvation comes only from having a faith relationship with God through Jesus Christ and living according to His direction.

With that said, our school also provides a quality education for which many parents are searching. Our students regularly score well above the national average on standardized tests.  More importantly, our graduates have a phenomenal record of success in high school and beyond. Smaller classes; dedicated, nurturing teachers; and supportive, involved parents help create a dynamic educational team that supports our students from Preschool through 8 th Grade.

Confident you will be thankful you found us, I am here to answer your questions, so please fill in the form, share your contact information, and plan on hearing from me soon! It is our hope that St. Paul will meet your needs, and we encourage you to consider enrolling your child and becoming part of our educational family.

Sincerely,
Kurt Schmidt, Principal

Listen to one of our Parents...

Do I have to be Lutheran to attend St. Paul?

St. Pauls welcomes children of all faiths, socioeconomic, and ethnic backgrounds. 42% of our student body is non-Lutheran.

Does a small school like St. Paul offer all my child's needs?

Yes! St. Paul has relatively small class sizes and multi-graded classrooms, allowing students to interact more closely with their teachers and classmates. This enables each student to participate in activities that may be unavailable in larger schools. The teachers at St. Paul know each child as an individual and, in most cases, work with each child over two years.

Can I afford to send my student to St. Paul?

Education is one of the best investments a parent can make for their children. A quality Christian education will continue to give returns in various ways throughout a child's entire life. The elementary years of a child's academic life can lay a solid foundation for high school, college, and beyond. A St. Paul education is affordable and attainable with scholarships and alternative payment plans.
