Our mission is to prepare young people for lifelong service to Christ. Our purpose is to provide a Christian academic and extra-curricular education to help students discover and develop their relationship with Jesus and the purpose God has for them so they might dedicate their lives to giving God all praise and glory.
Our philosophy is that students come to CLHS from a variety of backgrounds, but share the need to be accepted by self and others, to articulate and achieve goals in life and to grow in their personal faith. As a Christian educational institution of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod, CLHS is privileged to provide a Christian environment in which the needs of the church, family and its students can be met. In this environment students are given opportunities to practice both Christian, family and civic responsibilities and to experience a broad, yet challenging and structured, academic and extra-curricular program.
