The Board of Education of Hope Lutheran Church is responsible for developing school policies, protocols, and general strategic direction. They oversee the implementation of these policies through the work of the principal.
We are in the process of calling a another full-time pastor.
The Pastor is the spiritual leader of Hope Lutheran Church. He frequently conducts weekly chapel services, is a resource to teachers and students, and works closely with the principal to ensure that the community of Hope is sharing the Gospel.
