We aim to provide children the opportunity to study God's Word, with an emphasis on Luther's Small Catechism with explanation, so that the children reach a level of spiritual maturity enabling them to confirm the faith into which they were baptized.
We also aim to provide thorough instruction in a balanced elementary curriculum that prepares students for success at the high school level and beyond.
