First Lutheran School
Academics have always been at the top of our educational priority list at First Lutheran School. Though we follow Tennessee’s Guidelines for Education and Core Knowledge, we strive to take your child well beyond state standards and our track record consistently has demonstrated success in doing so.
But it is our conviction is that no education is complete without the teachings of Jesus Christ. We see His teaching as the “crown jewel” of an outstanding education. Learning of Jesus’ wisdom and love will make your child well prepared for the world, feel safer and more secure no matter what adversities may come. The earlier children learn of His truth and mercy, the more confident they are as they grow in academics, athletics, and the arts—even into high school, college, and beyond.
With Christ’s teachings and our experienced and caring faculty and staff, our school is ready to prepare your child for tomorrow. We invite you to enroll today and learn how this is most certainly true.
Our Mission:
We believe that all children are created and loved by God. First Lutheran School together with family and church educates children’s spirits, minds, and bodies in a Christ-centered environment, preparing them for Christian service and eternal life.
Our Objectives:
- To equip our students both spiritually and academically
- To nurture them in Christian love as they grow in knowledge, attitudes, and skills
- To enable our students to reach their full potential as Christian individuals and responsible citizens.
History:
True to the historic principle of Lutheranism that there can be no real education without religion, First Lutheran School opened its doors in 1870, less than a year after the congregation was formed. The first school was a one-room schoolhouse with grades 1-8 in a single classroom. FLS then expanded to double classes in a room until the 1970s, when expansion continued until all grades Kindergarten through 8th grade were in single classrooms. The Early Childhood Education center (preschool) was founded in 1971. In 1978, we completed a major renovation with the addition of another school wing to house more classrooms and a gymnasium.
Our national organization of churches (The Lutheran Church- Missouri Synod) also maintains one of the largest systems of universities and seminaries in the United States and abroad.
Lutheran churches have a long history of supporting Christian education. Bringing children up in a good relationship with the one, true, holy, gracious and compassionate God revealed in our Lord Jesus Christ is a first priority. Lutheran schools strive to develop a foundation for children built upon God in Christ and His Word. They also excel at teaching English, math, science, physical education, and extra-curricular activities in order to prepare children to thrive in and contribute to today’s world - all to the praise and honor of God.
