Since it’s humble beginnings, God has blessed St. Matthew’s with continued growth, caring teachers, and supportive families. The current school has ten classrooms and enrolls children from Pre-Kindergarten through Grade 8. St. Matthew’s Lutheran School is operated by St. Matthew’s Lutheran Church and is part of the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod. WELS congregations like St. Matthew’s have operated elementary schools for over 150 years. The 359 WELS schools in 27 states and two foreign countries make up our nation’s fourth largest school system.
