Garden Homes Lutheran School
School Notes Overview:
Garden Homes Ev. Lutheran Church and School sit on the edge of Garden Homes Historic District, our nation's first municipally sponsored, community owned housing project, now a part of the City of Milwaukee. The church and school came into existence on March 13, 1927, with the opening of its new facility in the fall of 2004. Our school has been founded on the firm foundation of God’s Word. Therefore, children attending our school receive a thorough course in Religion. Religion, however, is not just a segregated subject in the day’s work. The Word of God radiates and shines through all of the various subject areas that are taught. Every subject in a Christian school is informed by the principles articulated in God’s Word. Every lesson opens a window into some aspect of God’s creation and helps students see God’s hand in the world around them. Every day brings new opportunities for students to grow in their knowledge of God, and in their desire to serve Him and their neighbor. Every class helps children and young people prepare to take their place as citizens of God’s kingdom, bringing God’s reconciling love to a world that should acknowledge Him as Creator, Savior, and Comforter. ...
