Mt. Olive
LUTHERAN
SCHOOL
Mt.
Olive
Lutheran
School and Preschool has
been offering Christian ed-
ucation in Delano for more
than 60 years. Their mis-
sion statement has three
main objectives, which
the school and preschool
strive to meet every day:
1. To provide families
with a knowledge of Jesus
as their savior.
2. To train students in all
areas of academics.
3. To encourage families
in Christian living.
Mt. Olive Lutheran Pre-
school is a state-licensed
and 4-star Parent Aware
rated preschool that offers
a variety of scheduling op-
tions for your child(ren).
Children 33 months to 5
years of age are welcome
to enroll and be a part
of the preschool. Mt. Ol-
ive Lutheran School offers
education from kindergar-
ten through grade 8 and
is fully accredited through
MNSAA (Minnesota Non-
public School Accredita-
tion Association).
At Mt. Olive, students
are taught a Christ-cen-
tered education where
they learn that they are
redeemed children of
God and forgiven through
their savior’s death and
resurrection. The teachers
teach this by daily study-
ing God’s Word and inte-
grating God’s Word into
other subjects. Mt. Olive
also teaches the core sub-
| 50 |
jects: mathematics, read-
ing, language arts, social
studies, science, and the
fi ne arts to prepare stu-
dents for high school and
the rest of their lives.
A
teacher-to-student
ratio of about 1:10 allows
the teacher to give each
individual student the at-
tention he or she needs
to grow academically.
Along with this teacher-to-
student ratio, Mt. Olive has
multi-grade
classrooms.
This allows the students to
learn from one another
and create a family atmo-
sphere within each and
every classroom.
Mt. Olive also offers
many extracurricular op-
portunities for its students
in athletics, academics,
and the arts.
