ABOUT
ST. PETER LUTHERAN SCHOOL
MISSION & VALUES
The mission of St. Peter Lutheran School is to assist parents in the training of their children through Christ centered teaching and excellence in academic curriculum.
St. Peter Lutheran Church operates St. Peter Lutheran School. The church is a nonprofit corporation holding membership in The Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod (LCMS). We derive our doctrine and practice from the Bible, the Lutheran Confessions, and LCMS teachings.
Christian beliefs pervade everything that is done at St. Peter Lutheran School. We integrate Christian instruction into the study of every subject. We immerse students in a Christian environment, surrounded by teachers, administrators, and staff whose very presence is a testimonial to the Christian faith and life.
Anyone can attend our school. Although we adhere to our Lutheran doctrine and heritage, this school is a ministry. Therefore, everyone is welcome. Whether you are Lutheran or non-Lutheran,
churched or unchurched, this is a place of love and guidance.
St. Peter Lutheran School will provide teaching and other educational experiences to enable children:
To learn and apply the basic Christian principles which Christ has outlined for His people in His Word;
To develop skills of self-discipline appropriate for home, classroom, school, church, and community;
To develop an awareness of the needs of the community and to reach out, in love, to help those in need;
To learn and master the basic academic skills necessary to become happy, healthy, useful citizens.
HISTORY
St. Peter Lutheran School was founded in Lodi, CA in 1904 by St. Peter Lutheran Church. The school began with 16 students and 1 teacher. During the first 40 years of the school's history the school closed and reopened several times, primarily during WWI and again in WWII. Due to increasing enrollment, a new facility was built in 1945 at West Locust and Church Streets. The school was located where the Lodi Public Library now stands, with the church directly across the street. In 1964, a fire destroyed the church facility leading the congregation to rebuild its church and school at the current location on Lower Sacramento Road. By 1978 enrollment was at 150, and the school implemented a single grade per classroom policy. In 1991 St. Peter completed WASC and NLSA accreditation requirements. In 2002 St. Peter opened a preschool program with average enrollment at 35-40 students. The school currently has nearly 200 students from Preschool through 8th grade.
