"ILS is a very nice place to be. It is clean, Christian and happy. It
is a good place to learn! We learn to be kind and loving and not to tease or
hurt each other's feelings... I always look forward to the next day of school.
ILS is the best.
-- 4th Grade Student
"The first thing that makes ILS a great place to grow is that everyone
here is a Christian. I also like the size of my school and class. My class has
ten students all together. Every teacher that I have had so far is unique in
their own special way!"

"Education is important. It helps you succeed in life. Our options at
Immanuel are endless. We can join sports, scouts, band and other clubs. We can
work hard and make the Honor Roll and National Jr. Honor Society. I've learned
respect and responsibility. That is what Immanuel Lutheran School teaches me!"
-- 6th Grade Student
"ILS is special to me because I know I can accomplish a lot of my dreams
here - and I am determined to do just that."
-- 7th Grade Student
"ILS is a good school because the faculty works to make the kids become
independent and get them ready for high school. Also the education is advanced
so that we can learn and be ahead for when we get to high school."
-- 8th Grade Student
"I went to ILS from pre-school to eighth grade. I am now a freshman in
high school. Immanuel has prepared me really well both academically and spiritually
for high school. It is where my foundation was created."
-- A Former Student
"IT'S ALL ABOUT THE PEOPLE!
The teachers, the pastors, the secretaries and the parents. When I was here
as a student, they loved me and respected me for who I was and who I could become.
Even though I am no longer a student at ILS, they STILL love me and respect
me for who I am and what I have accomplished so far! And I believe that they
will ALWAYS love me and respect me for who and what I can become because they
know that FIRST, I am a child of God!
IT'S ALL ABOUT THE PEOPLE!"
-- A Former Student
"The entire staff at ILS cares about the complete child: mind, body and
soul. Everyone works together to help each student grow to his/her greatest
potential. They realize that to care about every child means not only teaching
all the necessary educational concepts but also providing a role model and environment
for the students to learn to work together, accept each other, benefit by each
others differences and realize that God is present in the lives."
