A History of
Christ Lutheran Church and School
Christ Lutheran Church and School traces its beginning to 1870, when First Lutheran Church opened a school in downtown Little Rock. Eventually, growth and the need for more space led to the closing of the old school, and the opening of a new campus in the 1960’s. Renamed “Christ Lutheran School”, we are located at our present location of 315 South Hughes (just south of Markham).
We have been blessed with growth throughout the history of Christ Lutheran School (CLS). We’ve added and expanded our facilities as we’ve been blessed with growth, and now have a campus for students pre-K through eighth-grade. We offer facilities conducive to learning with modern technology and classrooms.
We offer sports facilities ranging from a large gymnasium to our own football field, and have additional land to expand for future growth.
From our beginning, Christ Lutheran has placed great value on Christian education for children and adults. This tradition continues today by providing quality Christian education through Christ Lutheran School and the varied classes offered throughout our campus each week.
As we move into the future and seek to share Christ’s love with others, we do so in an environment that provides the best quality Christian education available in our community.
As you come to him, the living Stone…you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. 1 Peter 2: 4, 5
