Our children attended Christ Lutheran preschool and then continued to the elementary. For 2 years, we chose to place our child in a local, well-regarded charter school. Near the end of the second year, we felt that we needed to re-assess our decision. We took the time to do classroom observations in both schools, we analyzed test scores and compared the curriculum. In addition to comparing Christ Lutheran to the charter school, we also compared it to another highly regarded Christian school in San Diego. During this process, we realized that what set Christ Lutheran apart was the high level of accountability with the students. The staff truly cares about each family and student. The school creates many opportunities for the students to work together across the grades. This helps to develop a sense of responsibility and social awareness. There is a unique spirit at Christ Lutheran. It is an educational institution unlike any other that we have experienced. We feel confident that we made the right choice in sending our children to Christ Lutheran.
My family is so blessed to have found Christ Lutheran! We have attended a couple of christian schools in the area and CLS is the best by far. You can see that the teachers and staff love their jobs and the students! The academics are challenging but outstanding. I know my children will flourish both spiritually and academically in all their future endeavors due to the experiences at Christ Lutheran. My children look forward to going to school everyday to be greated by loving and caring educators! I am very proud to say my children attend Christ Lutheran and love every minute of it!!
My husband and I are Blessed so much by this school and staff. When people ask where my kids go to school a smile comes over my face because I love bragging on this school and staff. All the teachers want to be there and truly care for the spiritual and academic needs of the students. Not to mention that the Principle is a Blessing also. She knows all the students names, the parents name and the siblings names. Greets them at the door every morning with a smile and a hug. Really, what other school does that?? I wouldnt want my kids to go to any other school. They are thriving academically and they enjoy going to school. What more could parents ask for!!
CLS has blessed our family in so many ways. My children LOVE to go to school, and we know they are being nurtured by their teachers and the families that attend. Every morning they are greeted at the door with smiles and hugs from their principal and teachers. We have been very pleased with the curriculum and level of academics, but most importantly our daughters' growth in faith and walk with the Lord. You and your family will be blessed at CLS.
My daughter attends CLS and she could not be happier! The education is top notch and I know she will be well prepared for her High School Years and beyond. The Staff is amazing....encouraging, fun and just a loving, Christ centered environment that will prepare her for the rest of her life. As parents, when your child is happy, your happy! CLS is simply amazing and I couldn't imagine my daughter getting such a great education and Christian foundation anywhere else! God Bless.
I could not have had my daughter in a better school for K-8. She started high school this year and is in a public school setting. The love and discipline she learned from the staff as well as the excellent education has prepared her to go out in the world. The staff at Christ Lutheran takes an individual interest in each child. They are nutured and disciplined as necessary to mold them into wonderful young Christian kids. The foundation my daughter got at Christ Lutheran will follow her through her entire life! Yea Christ Lutheran!
Christ Lutheran is one of the best experiences I have had. Speaking as an alumnus (K-8), this school has established such a strong impact on my life, helping my faith to grow and deepen, further leading to my baptism. The staff is AMAZING, encouraging, and truly care about the well-being and success of their students. I couldn't have asked for better people to have helped guide me. The curriculum is challenging, but it teaches you work ethic that helps you for the rest of your school career (especially in high school and continuing in college). Talking to my high school teachers, they have told me that the students who come from Christ Lutheran are some of the best that they have had. This great caliber of student is representative not only of the student's work, but the environment that shaped them. I do not regret a moment of my time there, and am so blessed to have the relationships and experiences formed at this school.
My child attended Christ Lutheran School (CLS) for grades K-8. CLS was highly recommended to us by a friend and neighbor whose children also attended grades K-8. The academically challenging curriculum more than prepared my child for high school and now college. CLS educates the whole child; they are the parent's partners in educating their children academically and in teaching Christian values. We know our child's experience at CLS will sustain her the rest of her life.
I have taught at Christ Lutheran for 15 years. We have an amazing dedicated teaching staff and a principal I would walk through fire for. My daughter also is a graduate and the academics have served her well into private high school, college, and a master's program. I currently have 9 parents of my first graders who are also former alumni. That speaks for itself.
Christ Lutheran School, La Mesa is making a positive impact in our community. Students endeavor to do their best, knowing that their best is expected. Interested and supportive parents help make its educational climate one of teamwork. Eager students, supportive parents, and an affirming administration make teaching at Christ Lutheran a joy! By the grace of God, CLS will continue to produce students who are outstanding, Christian citizens of tomorrow!
