California Lutheran High School’s

Expansion to TK through 12th Grade.

California Lutheran High School is looking ahead to the future of our mission with an eye towards growth.

To reach this growth, our vision is an expansion of our ministry to include grades TK-12th grade. This expansion would add additional elementary and middle school grades to our campus, family, and faculty.

In a unanimous vote on February 22, the California Lutheran High School Association adopted a Constitutional change expanding the scope of our ministry to include TK-8th grades. A second motion for the board to move ahead with plans to open an elementary school on our campus to begin in August of 2025 also passed unanimously. 

This allows our board to move ahead with the plans to open an elementary grade education center on our campus beginning this fall!

What an exciting opportunity this presents for our ministry to families here in the Temecula Valley! Check out more about our expansion below…
