General Information 
Our Vision

“Boldly Christian, academically challenging, and focused on excellence, Christ Our Rock Lutheran High School is a reflection of the face of Christ in our community. We are the most desirable and effective high school in the mid-Kaskaskia River area because of our uplifting atmosphere, commitment to our students, and loving care for each member of our family.”

Our Focus

We believe that now more than ever, Christian leaders are needed. The problems facing our world – terrorism, dishonesty, loss of the traditional family, corruption, moral decay, self-centeredness, racism, poverty, false gods and false hopes – call for young Christian leaders to draw upon Biblical truths, confront in love and guide with confidence. 

The greatest Christian leader our world has ever seen, our Savior Jesus Christ, spent the last year and a half of his life primarily training twelve disciples to be Christian leaders. These apostles, spreading the Gospel message, changed the world. Led by Jesus, Christ Our Rock LHS is committed to this same calling.
