Our School

Greetings from the Principal

Resurrection Lutheran School, dually accredited by National Lutheran Schools and Cognia, offers a safe, nurturing, and academically rich educational experience in a Christ-centered environment where the groundwork is laid for a lifetime of learning. Students are encouraged to work towards independence at an early age and given the tools to take responsibility for their own study. Our commitment to Christian values, dedicated teachers, and parent support serve to motivate children to perform at their highest potential. Students are prepared to make “honors level” decisions in high school!

There are many opportunities for you to become involved in your child’s academic life in order to enhance and enrich their educational experience. Our close-knit community fosters strong personal relationships that will last a lifetime. Take a moment and explore our website to learn why so many families have found a home at RLS!

In His Service,
Robin Hester, Principal

Rejoice always. -1 Thessalonians 5:16

Mission: Resurrection Lutheran School is committed to educating generations of children in the training and instruction of the Lord. Because of this commitment, we will provide a Lutheran educational experience that is Christ-centered as well as academically focused for children in junior kindergarten through eighth grade.

History of Resurrection Lutheran


Read More 

Reverend Paul Kibler, the founding pastor of RLS, saw Lutheran education as an extension of the church and another way to reach out to the community. He knew the importance of surrounding children with the love of Christ. Pastor Paul’s vision was for RLS to provide an environment that stimulated spiritual growth and academic excellence while encouraging children’s expression of their unique God-given talents. This mission would promote the active participation of parents and congregation members while facilitating children’s interaction with the community through service, and a well-rounded, developmentally appropriate curriculum would focus on the sovereignty of God in all aspects of school life in a warm, nurturing environment.

In the fall of 2002, Resurrection Lutheran School opened its doors to 18 kindergarten students. This inaugural class was made up of 5% church members while 95% of the kindergarten families came from the community, thus validating the important community outreach that was intended.

One grade was added each year for the next several years. In 2005 school, church and community growth allowed RLC to expand the facility in order to do His work. A middle school was added in 2007, and today Resurrection Lutheran School serves nearly 160 students, our first class graduated in the spring of 2010. With nearly 55% of our school families currently attending Resurrection Lutheran Church, Pastor Paul’s outreach vision has been realized.

RLS alumni have successfully transitioned into a variety of public and parochial high schools exceeding expectations in and out of the classroom. The foundation students received in their early years instilled the confidence and courage necessary to identify and achieve academic, athletic and personal goals.
