SCLA Mission Statement
Educating the total student - spiritually, intellectually, and physically - in a caring, Christian family community.
SCLA Purpose
SCLA is a Christ-centered educational ministry sharing God’s love with all students. We carry this out by pointing students to the truths of God’s word in the Bible, by helping students strengthen their relationship with their Savior Jesus, and by sharing the good news of his love for all with those who do not yet know him as their personal Savior.
Statement of Faith
SCLA offers a caring, Christ-centered education and is governed by the SCLA association, a group of partner churches and schools affiliated with the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS) or the Evangelical Lutheran Synod (ELS). The WELS statement of faith can be found here: What We Believe – WELS
