About Us

We provide a setting in which each child may learn and grow as a whole person - physically, emotionally, socially, spiritually, and intellectually – in accordance with each child’s developmental age, individual abilities, and potential.

For over sixty-five years, Christ Lutheran Day School has provided a nurturing and loving place for children to learn and grow in their preschool years. Children ages 18 months to five years old are eligible to enroll in our National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) accredited program.

Christ Lutheran Day School is a ministry of the congregation directed toward the congregation and the community. As such, we have a daily chapel service, Friday song chapel, and participate in sharing the word of God with our students and families in the classroom with daily prayers and sharing of traditions.

CLDS Mission Statement

Christ Lutheran Day School is a ministry of the congregation directed toward the congregation and the community. We serve our students and families by providing the following…...  

----A safe, nurturing environment where children can joyfully experience their first major away-from-home educational instruction. This will be accomplished in a setting in which each child feels emotionally safe, secure, accepted for himself/herself, and loved unconditionally, and in compliance with the standards set forth by the State of Texas.  

---A place where children can learn what it means to be a Christian and how to live as a Christian, with the help of daily Chapel services that instill basic Christian principles. We will encourage understanding, acceptance of others’ feelings,  unselfishness, patience, kindness, forgiveness, and grace.  

---A setting in which each child may learn and grow as a whole person –  physically, emotionally, socially, spiritually, and intellectually – in accordance with each child’s developmental age, individual abilities, and potential.  

---A partnership with parents and families to provide a safe, nurturing, and quality education. We will collaborate with parents to ensure the best environment and experience for all our children.  


In 1996, Christ Lutheran Day School earned accreditation from the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC)-The nation’s leading organization of early childhood professionals.

NAEYC Accreditation helps families recognize quality early learning programs and feel comfortable knowing that their children are receiving a high-quality, research-based education that will prepare them for future success. This includes dynamic learning environments, low student-teacher ratios, and high standards for teacher’s education levels and continued education.

Play-based learning promotes each child’s optimal development and learning through a strengths-based, playful approach to joyful, engaged learning.
