In 1956 St. Mark's Lutheran Church established a school comprised of a kindergarten department. Today, our school consists of three kindergarten levels, five elementary grades, three middle school grades, and an Enrichment Center. The purpose of St. Mark’s Lutheran Church School is to provide a Christ-centered environment for living and learning so that students may find in Christ Jesus identity, purpose, and power for their lives.

St. Mark's Lutheran Church School is maintained and operated by St. Mark's Lutheran Church as an expression of its conviction that all education is best conducted in a setting in which faith in Jesus Christ is the focal point of life and influences all learning. St. Mark's Lutheran Church School is affiliated with an international system of Lutheran elementary and secondary schools associated with the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod, some 2,100 in number. These are not private schools but parochial schools in service to the church, providing Christian education for God's children. Our school, therefore, is an extension of the church to help “train up a child in the way he should go.”

The purposes of Christian education are to teach the Christian faith through instruction in God’s Word and to provide an environment for Christian living through quality and experiential learning activities. Working with parents, the Lutheran school has the potential to be the most effective means of Christian education. Moreover, the Lutheran school is a witness to the greater community of the love and concern of Christ’s Church for the salvation and well-being of all people everywhere.
