St. John Lutheran School is committed to ensuring that educational opportunities and programs are available to all boys and girls equally. All families are encouraged to enroll their children at St. John Lutheran School, regardless of whether they are members of St. John Lutheran Church. Additionally, for those interested in learning about tuition information, St. John Lutheran School participates in the Wisconsin Parental Choice Program. Importantly, the school does not discriminate based on gender, race, color, or national origin in its educational policies, admission procedures, athletics, or any other school-administered policies.
The School Board does reserve the right to be “selective” in the following manners:
Age Requirements: A child entering Kindergarten shall have reached five (5) years of age on or before September 1st of the current school year. Six (6) years of age for first grade. Proof of date of birth must be presented at the first registration. Underage children will not be admitted to St. John Lutheran School unless they have previously attended a state approved school. Children entering from another school must present their last report card and a transfer of records will then be requested from the child’s previous school.
Enrollment Priorities: If space is available during the period from the start of the school year through the re-enrollment date for the next school year, new enrollments will be accepted according to the following priority:
a. Children in membership of St. John Lutheran Church
b. Students (and siblings thereof) currently enrolled in St. John Lutheran School
c. Sister Lutheran Church Missouri Synod congregations
d. Other Lutheran congregations
e. Unchurched
f. Children of parents who hold membership in other church denominations.
Enrollment Probation: All new students and those students with a history of chronic discipline problems in the past will be on probation for a nine week period from the first date of attendance. At the end of the nine weeks, the administrator and teacher will review the student’s academic achievement (must be passing all subjects) and school conduct and will recommend to the School Board whether the student be allowed to continue at St. John Lutheran School or be referred to another school.
St. John Lutheran offers a preschool program for students that are three to five years of age and are toilet trained. Parents may select a two, a three, or a five day program in both the morning and afternoon. As enrollments will not exceed the thirteen students per session maximum, the following priority and timeline will direct registration:
The cost of a Christian Education for a child at St. John Lutheran School exceeds the cost of tuition; members of St. John Lutheran Church supplement the difference. It is therefore the responsibility of ALL parents to ensure that they give their fair share to support the school, either in the form of tuition for non-members or in the form of increased offerings for members of St. John Lutheran Church. All students will be assessed an annual tuition. Member tuition rates are less than non members.
Request for financial aid or reduced tuition must be brought to the attention of the administrator. The administrator and pastor will meet privately to discuss the disbursements of the financial aid. The parents need to fill out a financial application and everything necessary on file with the administrator in order for financial aid to be disbursed. The parents will be notified by the administrator if they are eligible.
