The first bell rings at 8:15. We ask that all students in first grade and above report directly to the gymnasium where they will be dismissed to their classrooms when the second bell rings at 8:22. Pre-K and Kindergarten may report directly to their classrooms. Our third bell rings at 8:30, after which students will be marked as tardy. Please make prompt attendance your priority!
We gather for chapel on Wednesday mornings at 8:30am. This is our time to worship together, and our chapels are led by pastors of the Lutheran Church – Missouri Synod. Guests are always welcome to join the students during chapel!

The school is governed by a board of directors that consist of parents, community members and a pastoral advisor. The monthly meeting times are noted in the school calendar.
