Very good, involved principal. Great families, great kids, good teachers. Facilities are very limmited,no fields, insufficient library. Highest tuition of Lutheran/Christian schools in the area.

I liked the school for my childrens' elementary and middle school education because I felt very safe about the school. You really get to know the other parents and students because
... Read more the school is very small. I never worried when one of my children went to another classmate's home. I also love the strong Christian morals my children learned there. On the other hand, they did miss out on extra activities that the larger public schools can offer such as certain sports and band. Compared to what I have heard about other public schools, the 6th-8th grade curriculum at Christ Lutheran is very intense and has a lot of homework for the children. Overall, I would highly recommend this school for someone looking for a Christian school for their children. Read less
