Overview
Trinity Lutheran School has been established to provide a Christian education for children in the elementary grades.
Trinity Lutheran School is accredited by the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod, Michigan Association of Non public Schools, and The Michigan District of the Missouri Synod.
Through its accreditation it has been recognized by these agencies as an “exceptional” school providing a “superior” Christian education to its students.
Trinity provides a quality Christian education to the children of families who are and are not members of the congregation.
The congregation is justifiably proud of its role in helping Christian parents as they heed the Scriptural admonition to “train up a child in the way he should go”.
St. Michael's Lutheran School. St. Michael's has been in Richville, MI since 1856 assisting parents with the Christian education of their children.
St. Michael's school is supported by the congregation of St. Michael's, a member of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod, but welcomes families from any religious background.
Through partnering with the home and congregation, we provide an excellent academic program.
Here at St. Michael's we desire to build disciples for our Lord and Savior through our curriculum.
SMLS emphasizes a strong academic program using secular curriculum materials.
We believe the teacher is the critical component to Integrating the Faith throughout the curriculum.
St. Michael's offers curricular instruction in technology and music and has a wide range of extra-curricular programs as well.
Through our Child Care, we are able to offer both before and after school latchkey programs to assist families in the development of their children.
