The St. John Lutheran School Story

The elementary schools of the Lutheran Church ‑ Missouri Synod date back to the decade between 1830 and 1840, when a number of Lutheran congregations were organized in Midwestern states and established Christian Day Schools for their children. The first of these schools is older than the public schools. Lutheran Schools are not in competition with public schools, but seek to work closely with the public schools in fulfilling educational responsibilities in the community. The Bible’s philosophical approach is much different in that the inspired Word of God is the source of truth.

Why We Love St. John

My name is Katelyn Dena and I was a member of the graduating class of 2019 at St. John Lutheran School. I am currently a student at SUNY Geneseo majoring in Economics with a minor in Spanish and marketing. As I look back upon my life and my educational journey, my time at St. John was by far the most impactful and memorable experience that truly shaped me into the person I am today. My parents first enrolled me at St.John when I was just entering kindergarten, and they chose St.John for a number of reasons. The class sizes were much smaller, sports were offered at a much younger age than most public schools, and most importantly students were able to grow and learn in an environment that was able to teach and spread the good news of Jesus Christ. St. John did in fact exceed the expectations that my parents had and I am forever grateful for my experience there.
