Welcome
At St. John Lutheran School, it is our goal that our students know Jesus as their personal Lord and
Savior and, as a result of that faith, what it means to live as a disciple
in this world. Themes throughout our school year focus on this theme and
opportunities are provided for our students to grow in the expression of
their faith. We are glad to welcome you and are happy to get this opportunity
to share with you the good news at St. John Lutheran School.
Our School
St. John Lutheran School, located at 6630 Southeastern Ave in Indianapolis,
is a ministry of St. John Lutheran Church, a congregation of the Lutheran
Church - Missouri Synod. The school opened its doors in 1853. Since that
time, it has continuously provided a Christian education for members of
the church and others throughout the southeast section of Marion County.
We offer a Preschool class (age 3) two mornings a week, a PreKindergarten class
(age 4) three mornings a week or three afternoons a week, a full-day
Kindergarten program, and grades 1-8. A majority of our students continue their
education at Lutheran High School, which is located just a few miles from St.
John.
