Kope Family, Redeemer Parents

Christ-Centered

Parents must be willing to have their child instructed in the doctrines of the Bible as taught by Redeemer Lutheran School.

While Redeemer is a private school, it is better understood as a Christian school that is operated by Redeemer Lutheran Church.

Children entering Kindergarten must be five years of age on or before September 1.

Parents - Bible Information Class

All new non-member parents are required to attend the Adult Bible Information Class within the first year of enrollment. Classes are offered at multiple times, and on a variety of days of the week throughout the year.

This course acquaints participants with the teachings of Holy Scripture as taught and believed by Redeemer Lutheran Church. Parents will thus be informed of the instruction given their children in school and may better reinforce this instruction in the home.

Children's Choirs

Worship is central to the life of Christians. Students at Redeemer have the opportunity to participate in the worship life at Redeemer and share their faith through music during Redeemer's worship on Sundays. Each classroom of students serves as a choir. All students are expected to sing in their respective choirs throughout the school year and participate in the Children’s Christmas Service.

Religion Curriculum

Children are expected to participate in Redeemer's religion curriculum and adhere to the values, mission, teachings, and beliefs of our church.

The religion curriculum includes daily devotions and prayer, weekly chapel services, Bible History lessons, Catechism classes, and the memorization of Bible verses, hymns, and parts of the Lutheran Catechism.
