St. John Lutheran School, locally known as SJL, is state-recognized and also carries voluntary accreditation through the National Lutheran School Accreditation Commission – a rigorous process that requires verification of ongoing improvement.
The school has grown from one teacher in one classroom to one classroom per grade, including a preschool and year-round child care program. The members of St. John financially and prayerfully support the school as a ministry to Christian families and as a mission outreach to the community.
St. John Lutheran Church established its Christian school in the fall of 1864 to provide the children of the congregation and other children of the community with a Christ-centered education.
This year, we will explore what it means to trust God's promises, follow His direction, and step forward in faith. We will learn from the men and women in Scripture who moved forward when God called them, even when the path was uncertain. We will celebrate the ways God has blessed us in the past while looking ahead to the future He is preparing for us. As a church and school community, we trust that God goes before us and walks beside us every step of the way. Let’s go forward!
Theme Verse for the School Year: For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. (Jeremiah 29:11)

Our school is a participant in the Wisconsin Parental Choice Program. (WPCP). This means that eligible students and their families may apply for a state-funded voucher to attend the private or parochial school of their choice. The amount of the voucher, if granted, fully covers the cost of tuition to SJL.
SCRIP is a great program that allows families to raise money for tuition by buying gift cards for everyday purchases. A portion of your purchases can be designated to the child(ren) of your choice.
