St.Luke's School | Print |

St. Luke's commitment to educating children goes back to 1833, when the church opened its first parish day st-lukes-school-exterior-large.jpgschool in the parish house. Primary education continued here, on and off, through most of the 19th century. In 1945, after a long hiatus, the present school was established, and now teaches some 200 children (K-8). In 1955, Trinity built the school's current home, a two-story brick building with a playground and a shared parking/play area. When fire ravaged the church and parish hall in 1981, the school building provided much-needed space for parish programs.
 
Throughout this 60-year history, the school's mission has remained steadfast. The school is a close-knit community, where honesty, responsibility, freedom of inquiry, justice, and equity are core values.


The parish and school have developed a strong relationship, with a sense of shared mission and a mutual recognition of the strengths that each brings to the other. Both institutions are convinced that by linking Episcopal ritual to a broad religious context, we can affirm all students in their own religious traditions and spiritual growth.
