We Are Walther Newsletter, October 2022

We have some exciting news to share: Walther’s enrollment is growing! We are pleased to announce that over the past two years, our student enrollment has gone up an amazing 25%. We currently have 289 students at Walther, 239 in the High School and 50 in our Middle School (Grades 6-8). This is the largest student body since 2018, when we had a large number of Luther North seniors join us for their last year of high school. God has richly blessed us with more families looking for the academic excellence and spiritual growth that we offer. If you know of anyone who has high school aged children, please tell them about Walther! We have an Open House on Thursday October 27th at 7:00pm at Walther, which is an excellent opportunity to see our school, meet our teachers, and learn more about what Walther has to offer!
 
In other news, our recent Homecoming and Alumni Weekend activities were great reminders about how special our Walther family is. Our current students enjoyed a spirited Spirit Week, in which they dressed up in different “2000’s” themed outfits and decorated the hallways with CDs and “Y2K” banners. The week culminated, as always, with Christian Service Day, in which all of our 288 students participated in service activities before crowning our Homecoming King and Queen. In a new twist, we had Friday’s Campfire on the football field…featuring an actual campfire!
 
The weekend was also an opportunity for our alumni to return to see how Walther is thriving and to experience all that Homecoming weekend had to offer. We are appreciative of everyone who joined us!
