Lutheran High School is a private Lutheran high school located in Parker, Colorado, in the United States. [5] Affiliated with the Lutheran Church–Missouri Synod, the school is accredited by the National Lutheran School Association [3] and has an average class size of 25 students. [1] The executive director of the school is Dan Gehrke. [3]
History
In 1955, Lutheran High School opened on West Arizona Avenue in Denver, Colorado. [6] Only temporary buildings, including a little, white house, which is still on campus today, served as the classrooms and school library. Total enrollment the first year was 77 students - 49 freshmen and 28 sophomores. [7] Students voted to have navy blue and gold as the school colors and The Lights as the mascot. [7] In 2000, the school decided to expand to two additional campuses - Lutheran High School of the Rockies (later renamed Lutheran High School Parker) and North Lutheran High School. [6] Lutheran High was renamed Denver Lutheran because of the additional campuses.
Lutheran High School Parker opened in 2000 in a strip mall on Parker Road. In 2004, construction for Lutheran High School Parker started at its current location on Newlin Gulch. Construction was completed in 2008. [8] Enrollment goals for each campus could not be met for several years, resulting in North Lutheran High closing in 2006. [7] The lack of success also resulted in Denver Lutheran closing its doors in 2011 and being consolidated Lutheran High School Parker, [9] with the consolidated school being named Lutheran High School. [10] Lutheran High School is now the only Lutheran high school in the Denver metro area. As of 2019 [update], enrollment was 600. [1]
