“Touching children’s lives through Christ in word and deed.”

This mission statement reflects our beliefs that Christ is present in our ministry, and that it is important to touch children’s lives in all that we do.

Teachers strive to integrate their faith and God’s Word in all aspects of the learning environment. This mission is not just present in our religion class, but in all our academics.

Our ministry includes making disciples of all the children that come to Zion Lutheran School so they can communicate the gospel message of Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior to everyone they meet.

Every day offers an opportunity to include God in all that we do, whether it’s in the classroom, on the playground, in chapel, on field trips, or in the lunchroom. An opportunity to share our faith is always open.

Included in this mission is our regular academic schedule. We teach our core subjects to students, preparing them for their future high school needs and beyond. With our small school atmosphere, students receive more one-on-one attention from our teachers, thus enhancing their learning environment. Quality time is spent on the needs of all our students.

Our teachers are trained through the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod program. All have valid Minnesota state licenses and stay up-to-date with educational improvements for use in their classrooms. They teach in their areas of certification, thus creating a more conducive learning environment.

Zion Lutheran School is the only elementary school in Mayer. It has the great opportunity to serve our fast-growing community. We offer many extra-curricular opportunities, including band and piano lessons, athletics, musicals, math and/or science fair, service projects, and much more. During the national Lutheran schools’ week in March, we offer many fun activities that students and families can participate in. There is always something to see and enjoy at Zion.

With the hopes of growing community and increased enrollment, both Zion school and church are planning on relocating in Mayer and expanding their physical facilities.

Zion offers the love of Jesus Christ to all students and families. Our goal is to touch every child that God entrusts to our care by teaching them to carry out the love of our Savior in all that they do and say, no matter what the circumstance. Our theme for this present school year is a very important verse that God gave to us, which is taken from Psalm 148:3: “Praise Him sun and moon; praise him all you shining stars.”
