School Notes

St. Mark Lutheran Church started a Lutheran elementary school in September of 1984.
The elementary school is increasing from a two-room to a three-room school for Fall 2026 with classes for students from Kindergarten-8th grade, including a K-Prep program for 5-year-olds.
We have three full time teachers and one para.
We also use volunteers from the congregation that allow us to give a quality Christian education. The school's primary purpose is to aid in the Christian education of the members of St. Mark Lutheran.
If space is available, children of parents who are not members may enroll.
For the 2026-2027 school year there are 33 students enrolled in Kindergarten through 8th grade.
St. Mark offers a full curriculum that includes math, science, social studies, reading, phonics, language, spelling, handwriting, and, most importantly, the study of God's Word.
The Word of God classes for the younger grades are the teaching of Bible stories.
Upper grade students have catechism instruction in addition to these Bible story lessons.
Because we are teaching the children our church doctrine, parents that are not members of St. Mark Lutheran Church need to meet with our pastor before their child can be enrolled, so that the parents and the pastor can discuss some of the key points that will come up in the religion classes.
