School Notes
- Welcome to Immanuel Lutheran Church and School of Frankentrost! Immanuel was founded by German settlers in 1847, and we have been seeking to teach kids about Jesus, and to provide the highest quality academics ever since.
- We welcome anyone who is seeking a quality Christian education for their children. We hope you'll consider joining us for worship or any of our school ministries.
- We have offered Christian Day School through eighth grade since our inception. In the summer of 2014, Immanuel opened a new Child Care Ministry to serve children and their families as young as six weeks old.
- We hope anyone who is seeking Christian education for their children will experience the joy and love of our teachers, child care staff and other current Immanuel families. Our teachers are highly qualified, well-trained professionals who are passionate about serving the Lord. They are excited to teach children about faith, as well as math, reading, writing and other subject areas.
