Concordia Lutheran High School
Description
This page is for all members of the CLHS family. It is to help keep everyone in touch with the school and its alumni. Please feel free to share any thoughts, news, prayer requests, pictures, and to invite others to join us. God Bless and Go Cadets! Established in 1935, Concordia Lutheran High School (CLHS) continues a long-standing tradition of Lutheran educational excellence. In its over 75 years of existence, Concordia has touched the lives of over 10,000 graduates with a Christ-centered environment noted for academic excellence and dynamic extra-curricular programs.
On average, 96% of CLHS students go on to college or continuing education. The student-faculty ratio is 15-1. The average class size is 24. Sixty-three percent of the faculty have earned advanced degrees. The faculty averages 19 years of experience. Opportunities for participation range from student publications to a variety of areas in the arts to Koinonia small group Bible studies to after-school club activities.
There are 21 athletic teams sanctioned by the Indiana High School Athletic Association and one club sport (bowling). Concordia is a member of the Summit Athletic Conference, a ten-member league of Fort Wayne high schools comprised of Concordia, seven public high schools, and two Catholic high schools.
Concordia's 43-acre campus is set in the northeastern part of Fort Wayne , minutes from downtown and within walking distance of the Indiana - Purdue - Fort Wayne University and Ivy Tech College campuses. Anthony Boulevard divides the campus with the main academic facilities and Our Creator's Classroom located on the west side and the Fred Zollner Memorial Stadium and Athletic Complex on the east side.
Concordia is the right place for students who participate in their education, want to be involved in lots of activities, seek a broad-based education, and want to be a part of a Christian community that affords them the freedom to grow in their Christian faith.
Concordia engages and nurtures a diverse student body [13% minority] in a Christ-centered, value-oriented educational environment that prepares students for lives of service to the church and community.
