Why do we exist?

The Central Nebraska Lutheran School Foundation exists to support and strengthen Lutheran education in Central Nebraska by uniting the efforts of the former Heartland Lutheran School Foundation and Trinity Lutheran School Foundation. This merger reflects the broader unification of Trinity Lutheran School and Heartland Lutheran High School into Central Nebraska Lutheran School. The Foundation’s purpose is to help support a seamless, Christ-centered Pre-K through 12th-grade education in Grand Island by aligning missions, combining resources, financial support, and enhancing both academic excellence and spiritual growth. It is dedicated to sustaining and advancing Lutheran education for future generations, equipping students to thrive and serve their communities.

Testimonials

"In a society that has turned anti-Christian, Trinity and GI Lutheran is a safe place where our children and families can be supported in learning and professing Scriptural Truths. Our Savior, Jesus, is the center of everything they do at the school campuses. Teachers are caring and learning is rigorous."

"Trinity and GI Lutheran High was the best thing that could have happened to my children. Our only regret is that we did not enroll them sooner."
