"So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in Him, rooted and built up in Him, strengthened in the faith..." — Colossians 2:6–7

This year, we join Lutheran schools across the country in embracing the theme "Rooted in Christ." Just as strong roots nourish and support a tree through every season, our students are grounded in God's Word as they grow in faith, knowledge, character, and service.

At First Lutheran School, Christ is the foundation for everything we do. Together, we are growing deep roots that will prepare our students to stand firm in faith and flourish for a lifetime.
