What Parents Should Know
With an enrollment of 17 students, Christ Lutheran High School is a smaller school where families often find a close-knit community atmosphere. Smaller settings can mean more individual attention from teachers and staff, though they may offer fewer extracurricular options than larger schools.
With a student-teacher ratio of 3.2:1, Christ Lutheran High School offers a notably low ratio compared to the national average. This typically means smaller class sizes and more opportunities for one-on-one interaction between students and teachers.
As a private school, Christ Lutheran High School operates independently from the local public school district.
