Overview
Mt. Calvary-Grace Lutheran School mission is to provide a Christ-centered education, which supports families in their Christian responsibility to teach their children about Jesus Christ, the only Savior.
With the guidance of the Holy Spirit, all of us at Mt.
Calvary Grace Lutheran School strive to proclaim, teach and apply faithfully the Word of God in all courses of instruction and in all other dealings with students and their families, in keeping with the Holy Scriptures; promote continuing spiritual growth and faithful Christian discipleship among all members of our school family, to prepare them for a life of service to the Lord; provide a quality academic curriculum in religion, language, social studies, mathematics, science, and the arts, in order to prepare students for continuing their education; enable all students to develop their God-given talents by providing them a range of opportunities in the areas of Christian worship, music, athletics and drama; deal lovingly and evangelically with each student as a redeemed child of God, offering encouragement and loving Christian discipline; regard seriously the trust that families have placed in the school and to deal with all of our students in a way that reflects our role as caretakers and parental representatives; and exceed guidelines provided by the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod and the State of Wisconsin.
First Lutheran School was first organized in 1859 by Pastor Fachtmann, our first Pastor, who maintained it for 7 years before the first teacher was hired.
Remaining as a Christian day school since its inception, our school blossomed from only a few pupils to a record enrollment of 295 students set in 1961.
In recent years, our school has maintained a fairly stable enrollment of about 115 students.
We assist families in the spiritual growth of their children to know and live for their Savior Jesus Christ in all areas of their lives.
