You parents cannot prepare a more dependable treasure for your children than an education in the liberal arts. House and home may burn down and disappear, but an education is easy to carry off."

St. John’s Lutheran School has enjoyed over 55 years of educating young minds.  We are one of over 1,632 Lutheran Day Schools operated by congregations of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod.  We are a ministry of St. John’s Lutheran Church of Grand Haven, Michigan.  

As Lutherans we use the Bible-based teachings of Martin Luther which inspired the reformation of the Christian Church in the 16th century.  Our beliefs can be summarized in three short, simple, yet powerful phrases: Grace alone, Scripture alone, and Faith alone. 

Our program encompasses preschool, kindergarten, and grades 1-8.  Our curriculum complies with the standards of the State of Michigan and the Michigan District of the Lutheran Schools.  The areas of learning we offer include: Religion, Language Arts, Social Studies, Science and Mathematics.  We also offer Physical Education, Media, Music, Choir, Art, Drama, and Band.  We have athletic opportunities on campus and in conjunction with the Grand Haven Area Public Schools.  We have a full computer lab in which we use the curriculum called FUTUREKIDS.  

In setting us apart from other schools it is important to know that our teachers are professionally trained in Christian, synodical schools and certified by the State of Michigan.  We are a sponsored and supported ministry of St. John’s Lutheran Church in Grand Haven, Michigan.  We are accountable to the Department of Education of the Michigan District of Lutheran Schools.  Our curriculum is permeated by a Christian philosophy of education including daily instruction in religion and continuous training in Christian living.

We maintain a Christian School to fulfill a fundamental need––to help parents carry out their God-given responsibility to bring up their child “in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.”  By doing this we also fulfill our instruction from Jesus to “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.”  Matthew 28:19-20a. 

Lutheran schools give parents the opportunity to exercise their rights to religious freedom, even in their choice of their child’s school.  We have a tradition of excellence.  Our mission is to educate the whole child: spiritually, emotionally, mentally, academically, and physically.  We prepare children to succeed as moral, responsible, future leaders in their church and community. 

Our parents take pride in the level of excellence and spiritual awareness their child attains.  Parents become financial partners with our congregation in supporting their child’s mental, social, physical, and spiritual education and believe their child’s well-being is more than worth the cost.

If you would like to provide your child with a quality education in a nurturing environment where their body, mind, and spirit will be fed...please call today for more information.
