Our Mission

St. Peter Lutheran School exists to help parents bring up their children in the training and instruction of the Lord, to provide academic excellence using God's Word, and to share the Gospel of Christ with the world.

Our Purpose

From Holy Scriptures, we learn that the church's sole commission is to make disciples of all nations by preaching and teaching the Gospel. (Matt 28:19-20) The purpose of our Lutheran congregation and school is to make disciples for Christ and in all things glorify Him. St Peter Lutheran School was established by the congregation to assist the parents in their God-given responsibility to bring up their children in the training and instruction of the Lord. (Eph. 6:4) This purpose St Peter's accomplishes by teaching its learners to fear their Lord. (Ps 35:11) They are taught to fear their Lord both by learning God's Word directly, and also by having all subjects taught from a scriptural viewpoint.

Our Philosophy

The Lutheran elementary school established by St. Peter Lutheran congregation of the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod is founded on the eternal truths as revealed in God's Holy Word, the Bible. We believe the Bible to be the inspired Word of God, the sole authority on faith and conduct. We further believe the Bible to be the inspired Word of God, with no contradictions, but is in all its parts and words, the infallible truth. The Word of God is the basis for all instruction at St Peter. Therefore, all subject matter and student training rest wholly and solely upon the Word of God.

St. Peter School Accreditation

We have begun the journey on the road to accreditation. The purpose of this endeavor is to build off of our strengths as a school and improve upon the weaknesses. This will mean doing a self-study and creating a plan for our ministry to be implemented over the next several years. The steering committee is in place and met recently for training. The members are as follows: Tim Paider, Jordana Umnus, Robert Hoewisch, Jodi Wilz, Brian Kaminske, Johanna Edwards, Rachel Carson, and Jon Faulks. These individuals will be contacting various people (parents, former students, congregation members, nonmembers, lay leadership, etc.) to ask them to serve on their subcommittees. If you are contacted, please prayerfully consider the request. The path to accreditation is a process that will take the assistance of many individuals for the purpose of strengthening SPL’s ministry for many years into the future. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to reach out to anyone listed above, Jeremy Schroeder (Steering Committee Chairman), or Mr. Miller.
