Martin Luther High School offers traditional education with high standards. Martin Luther High School offers traditional education with high standards. Lutheran education for a lifetime Lutheran education for a lifetime	FROM OUR FATHER TO THE CHILDREN “Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and will not be afraid; for the Lord God is my strength and my song, and he has become my salvation.” Isaiah 12:2 (ESV) From our beginnings Our Father's has had a strong desire to hand down the faith once delivered to the saints. In the early years there were large Sunday School classes that crowded into the building and members began to talk about forming a school. The school was viewed as a way to reinforce the Lutheran teaching as well as prepare children to serve God and their neighbor in their daily vocations. In 1964 that dream was finally realized. Since that time faithful teachers have daily taught the faith as well as focusing on mathematics, grammar, history and science. Many of those students are now sending their children for a traditional education with a strong foundation in Lutheran doctrine. The memorization of Holy Scripture, Luther's Small Catechism, and Lutheran hymns are an important part of the daily growth in faith and love. The caring environment and smaller class size allows us to focus on the needs of each individual student. The positive results are seen in the high test results and the subsequent success of our students in high school and college.	GOOD TRADITIONS Sometimes people regard the word tradition in a negative way. In fact, the word refers to handing over or handing down something. We believe that there are good things to hand down to our children, good traditions that they should value. In the classroom that means learning how to read and write using phonics and grammar even as they move into learning more about the latest computer technology available to them. We hand down the importance of memorizing multiplication facts while teaching them to use graphing calculators in Algebra. We stress the need to know the history of the world and Western civilization so that the treasures of our democratic freedoms might be handed down. The traditional methods are the foundation for launching into every new development and equipping our children to lead and govern society. In our faith life we stress the Tradition that is in Holy Scripture. This is the teaching of God the Father about His Son that has been handed down to us for our salvation. We follow the traditional liturgy of the Church that unites us across generations to teach what God has done for us. Each Wednesday we gather in the church to pray Matins, hear the Scripture reading, pray a psalm, and sing Lutheran hymns. On the other four days we follow a schedule of readings that takes us through the core Old Testament stories, Catechism stories, and the Church Year stories of Jesus' birth, death, and resurrection.
