WHY ST. MICHAEL LUTHERAN SCHOOL?
We are the ONLY Christian School Located in Portage!
Benefits of Choosing St. Michael Lutheran School
Our school was named #2 among Michigan District Lutheran Schools
St. Michael Lutheran School is a state-approved private school, offering grades Preschool through Eighth, all taught by certified teachers. Our school is accredited by three separate accrediting bodies, including National Lutheran School Accreditation (NLSA).
The school prides itself on offering a Christ-centered, quality academic program. As an example, recent standardized test scores found our students' overall performance above the National average in reading, math, science, and social studies, with most year-end Kindergarteners reading. Our school was named #2 among Michigan District Lutheran Schools that administered the Iowa Test of Basic Skills.
These excellent scores are achieved through a blend of a Christ-centered environment, class size, outstanding certified teachers, and a strong curriculum.
We Offer Affordable Tuition and TADS Tuition Assistance
St. Michael Lutheran School is able to offer some tuition assistance to qualifying families in grades Kindergarten through 8. The amount of tuition assistance available varies from year to year because all tuition assistance money is generated annually from many special events as well as generous donations of individuals. We use the services of TADS, a national company which specializes in analyzing financial need.
This company reviews applications and supporting financial records and gives recommendations regarding a family's ability to pay. The tuition assistance committee tries to honor those recommendations as funds allow.
We are the only Christian school located in Portage that is able to offer this type of assistance.
