West Lutheran was a very good high school for our son and family. The school provided a supportive and friendly community that made high school education feel like a challenge with plenty of opportunities. The student population was inclusive promoting a strong sense of school spirit, commitment to faith and excellence in academics. Our son graduated from West Lutheran well prepared for the next stages of life. He also has many great memories and friends that will last forever.

Our children have attended King of Grace Lutheran from preschool through 8th grade. When the decision came to make a high school choice, we knew West Lutheran was it. Sending our kids to West has given them opportunities that they would not have had in larger schools. Both Rudy and Lily were able to play sports that they had never played before and were involved in choir, 乐队, 年鉴, National Honor Society and student council. They were able to do all of this while hearing Gods word in their daily lives, as this was part of every activity and every class at West Lutheran. They also received a fantastic education that prepared them well for college. As a parent, I love the close knit, family- like community West offers. It is great to be able to get to know the families of your children’s friends. Looking toward the future, my sixth grader is excited to begin his years at West Lutheran High School.

West Lutheran was a building place for our daughters and our family.
West Lutheran grew and nurtured faith in our family. Even in the complex world that we live in today, our daughters were taught to be continually filled with hope because of their faith. They were taught to be comforted by God’s Word and to turn to God in all things. This solid thread of faith runs throughout all aspects of West Lutheran including academics and extra-curricular activities.
With confidence in God, West Lutheran developed character in our daughters as they participated in leadership, academic and athletic roles at West Lutheran. The small class sizes and opportunities to be involved in extra-curricular activities instilled a sense of confidence in them as young adults. With all of these wonderful experiences, our daughters graduated from West Lutheran prepared for college and for life.

Our daughter transferred to West Lutheran in the middle of her sophomore year from a larger, public high school. Faculty and students warmly welcomed her. Soon her grades began to improve due to the academic attention she received from faculty and supporting staff. The staff was always positive and found new and unique ways to assist her with schoolwork and a daily balance with athletics and work. She graduated in 2016, is attending post-secondary education and still enjoys friendships with former students and staff members.
For four years, our son has attended West Lutheran and has excelled within the small class size and extra attention that comes with going to a smaller high school. The staff continually encourages him and challenges him in new and unique ways along with encouraging him in extracurricular student activities and athletics. He will proudly graduate in 2018, and has been accepted to numerous post-secondary colleges thanks to his hard work and the solid West Lutheran curriculum, staff and student environment. For anyone looking toward a smaller private high school education, my wife and I cannot say enough about the faith and academics surrounding the staff, families and students of West Lutheran High School.
