St. Andrews Lutheran School

St. Andrew's Lutheran Church was established in St. Paul Park shortly after the Second World War.
Ten years after the church was founded, a full-time Christian Day School began operating.
Ever since, St. Andrew's Lutheran School has been teaching young minds for tomorrow's world and preparing young hearts for God's kingdom.
Our long tradition of academic excellence is rooted in the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS) School system, the fourth largest parochial school system in the country.
Our school provides a setting where the words of the Lord are taught and applied daily and a caring Christian staff helps children to grow academically and spiritually.
