Why Choose Christ-St. John’s Lutheran School?
Choosing a school for your child is one of the most important decisions you will ever make. At Christ-St. John’s Lutheran School in West Salem, we believe education is more than academics. It is the formation of the heart, mind, and soul.​
Christ-Centered Education
At Christ-St. John’s, everything we do is grounded in God’s Word. From 3K through 8th grade, students grow in the truth of Scripture daily. Faith is not an added subject, but it is woven into every classroom, every lesson, and every relationship.
Our students learn:
-
Who they are as children of God
-
That Christ has died and risen for them
-
How to live in faith, love, and service
We partner with families to nurture faith that lasts not just for today — but for eternity.
Strong Academic Foundation
We are committed to excellence in education.
-
Small class sizes for individualized attention
-
Strong reading and math foundations beginning in 3K
-
Critical thinking and problem-solving skills
-
Preparation for high school and beyond
Our teachers know each child personally and challenge them to grow academically while supporting them every step of the way.



Safe and Caring Environment
Children thrive where they feel known, valued, and secure.
At Christ-St. John’s:
-
Students are more than numbers — they are part of a family
-
Christian discipline focuses on accountability and grace
-
Teachers and staff genuinely care about each child
We strive to create an environment where students feel safe to ask questions, grow in confidence, and develop their God-given gifts.
Partnership with Parents

Through clear communication, shared values, and mutual encouragement, we work together to guide your child’s growth — spiritually, academically, and socially.
