About SPLS

SPLS was founded in 1974 and has grown to offer three year-old preschool through eighth grade. With approximately 125 students, the school is fully accredited by WELS School Accreditation (WELSSA), a sanctioned member of the National Council for Private School Accreditation (NCPSA).

St. Paul’s Lutheran School offers a quality, Christ-centered education to our congregation and surrounding community. We prepare students for a life of service to their neighbor and an eternal life in heaven.

Both the head and heartbeat of our school is Jesus Christ. All that we do is done out of thanks for what Jesus has done for us. All that we accomplish is done through His grace and to His glory. Because of Christ, we are relentlessly determined to carry out our mission.
