The First Lutheran School has been educating children in Knoxville since 1870. Today, the private school serves students in kindergarten through eighth grade. It operates an early childhood education (ECE) program for children between the ages of one and four, as well as five-year-olds who miss the state cut-off to enter kindergarten. The four-year-old classroom is a kindergarten preparatory environment. The school exceeds the state education standards, and elementary students focus heavily on reading and writing as their educational foundation. In six through eighth grades, First Lutheran students receive a solid foundation to succeed in high school and the rigorous coursework means students can complete Algebra 1 in eighth grade and enroll in higher-level math in high school. Students also learn Spanish, putting them ahead of their peers when they take high school Spanish. In addition to its regular academic programming, the school offers before- and after-school care, summer camp and opportunities to participate in athletics, music and art programs.

First Lutheran School feels like family. A nurturing, educating family that brings out the best in its students. FLS educates the mind, exercises the body and feeds the spirit! What a wonderful school.

We love First Lutheran School. We started there in the Early Childhood Education program and will remain through 8th grade. Small classes, specialized learning, plenty of extra curriculars, absolutely amazing teachers (that feel like family) and the best education with a focus on the Christian faith...

My child's safety and well being is my number one priority. The schools we are zoned for are not, in my opinion, in a safe location. I read many horror stories of lock downs, over crowded buses, and just general discipline problems in our zoned location. My daughter attended prek at FLS and I was ha...
