Heartland Lutheran High School is a ministry of Christian education owned and operated by the Lutheran High School Association of Central Nebraska, Inc., an association of Lutheran Church Missouri Synod congregations.
HLHS is operated in agreement and compliance with the doctrine and practice of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod.
Our educational program is based on the teachings of the Bible as the inerrant Word of God and the faithful exposition of these teachings as outlined in the Lutheran confessions god is Triune one eternal God existing in three separate and distinct persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
We believe that Christian education applying God's Law and Gospel to all aspects of life and learning is a shared responsibility among the home, the church, and the school.
The Christian education of children is commanded by God and is the only way a child can develop to his or her full potential spiritually, socially, and academically.
We believe that this education is especially important during the high school years, when students face immense pressure to conform to a secular worldview.
As a result, HLHS teaches all subjects from a Christian worldview, integrating the faith in all subjects.
Teachers also model Christ's love to their students. Through the Holy Spirit, Heartland Lutheran High School seeks to help students grow in their faith in Christ to become Christian leaders in an increasingly non-Christian world.
