2025
“Our daughter transferred into middle school after the 2025 Christmas break and she is absolutely thriving at GILH. From the moment she started, the girls in her class welcomed her with open arms and now she feels right at home. This is exactly where our family needs to be. We’re so thankful for the school and the loving community it provides.”

More Than a School
An Experience We Can’t Market
Every Student Is Known. Every Student Belongs.
Students walking into Grand Island Lutheran High know that each day they are loved. And at the end of the day, they leave with a genuine sense of belonging, not dreading tomorrow, but actually looking forward to it. That excitement makes all the difference. When a student truly wants to be somewhere, remarkable things happen academically, emotionally, and spiritually.
The GILH Difference
Early Dismissal Fridays
At GILH every Friday is intentionally designed to end a little earlier giving students, families, and staff the gift of time. It’s not just a schedule. It’s a philosophy.
“Early out Fridays motivates the students as it gives them something to look forward to and helps them finish the week strong.”
