Advent Lutheran School

Academics at Advent

We believe that academic success means helping children to grow mentally, physically, spiritually and socially.   We are more than a school; we are an educational ministry of Advent Lutheran Church. We are more than administrators, teachers and staff; we are God’s ministers. Our students are God’s children, our parents are our partners, and our school is a Christian community. We do not simply teach by words, we instruct by example. We do not have classes, we have learning communities growing in wisdom and grace. Our curriculum is not just for the mind and body; it is for the heart and soul.  Our students learn the facts and the values they will need to succeed. Our students do not only pass tests, they are prepared for the tests of life. Our students do not graduate, they are sent to love and bless the world.

Curriculum
