About Zion Lutheran School
Zion Lutheran School has been serving the families of Mayer and surrounding communities by providing Christian education for more than 100 years .
“ Sharing hope , teaching Christ ” is the mission statement of Zion Lutheran School with a sub-mission of being Christ-centered , academically strong , and respectfully operated . Teachers are dedicated and caring individuals who love to share the love of Jesus with their students and families . Teachers strive to integrate their faith and God ’ s word in all aspects of the learning environment as they teach from a Biblical worldview .
Zion provides a quality education , which is evident by consistently scoring higher in math and reading than the national average .
Zion Lutheran School has experienced enrollment growth over the past decade . This growth has led to single grade classrooms for the first time in its history while still keeping a small-school atmosphere with a student / teacher ratio of 15:1 . This allows students to receive more one-on-one attention from their teachers , thus enhancing their learning environment and meeting the needs of all the students .
With the increased enrollment and single graded classrooms , Zion is currently in a capital campaign with a planned building addition .
Zion Lutheran School offers many extracurricular opportunities , including band and piano lessons , athletics , musicals , and service projects . Fun activities are planned each year during National Lutheran Schools Week , which is January 22-28 and has the theme “ Making Disciples for Life .”
Tuition assistance is available to families who desire a Christian education and are in need of financial help to send their children to Zion .
