Redeemer Lutheran School provides a caring, Christian atmosphere where children are taught by compassionate, dedicated teachers.  Redeemer Lutheran is part of a much larger school community, the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod, with over 2400 schools at the preschool, elementary, and secondary level.  These schools provide Christian education to over 273,000 children and young adults. For well over 100 years, Lutheran Schools have been open to assist children as they prepare for life in this world while growing in their faith in Jesus Christ.

At Redeemer Lutheran School, we believe in educating the whole child-mind, body and, most importantly, soul.  All instruction is motivated by the love of God in Jesus Christ, our Lord, for the purpose of enhancing the faith of each child.  

 Redeemer Lutheran School opened in 1984 and is currently in its 25th year of offering a Christian education. The original building was part of the church..In January of 1988, the school had a ribbon cutting for a new school.  In 2008,  the Middle School wing was added, with the ribbon cutting for that celebration in November of 2008.  The Lord continues to bless our students and families at Redeemer Lutheran School.

Our curriculum uses state adopted textbooks, with our religion text being published by Concordia Publishing House, the publishing company of the LCMS. 

We are accredited by the National Lutheran School Accreditation. We are also accredited by the state of Indiana.

Redeemer Lutheran School operates as a ministry of Lutheran Church of Our Redeemer and is governed by the policies of the Board of Education of Lutheran Church of Our Redeemer.

REDEEMER LUTHERAN SCHOOL, TOGETHER WITH OUR CONGREGATION, EXISTS TO:

WELCOME CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES TO A CHRIST-CENTERED ENVIRONMENT, 

EQUIP THEM WITH FOUNDATIONS FOR ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE, AND

SEND THEM FORTH IN LIFELONG SERVICE FOR THE LORD.
