Our Mission

Since its inception, Salem Lutheran School has had a vision of nurturing children’s development to the best of their potential academically, spiritually, and socially. The mission of Salem Lutheran School is to educate students through quality instruction emphasizing Jesus Christ as the foundation of their lives, in which their potential can be nurtured and developed as they grow in faith. Students are taught that each is blessed with unique talents and abilities and loved unconditionally by Jesus Christ. Following the example set by Christ, children are inspired to care about a relationship with others established through mutual respect, honesty, and compassion.
