If you are looking for a place where your charitable gift can make a highly significant impact, you may have just found it. Lutheran High School is in one of the fastest growing counties in the United States and has quadrupled in enrollment in the past eight years. As the Parker area grows, the demand for a Christian high school that values highly relational community, excellence in academics/extra-curricular activities, and the bold proclamation of the Gospel of Jesus Christ grows with it.
Lutheran High School desires to build its enrollment to 800+ students to meet this growing need and partner with the community to refine its product to best serve the needs of the families that desire Christian education.
You can help enable this high school to make an even Greater Impact through gifts from your Donor Advised Fund, IRA required minimum distribution, appreciated stock, real estate, or cash. Come visit and see what’s happening here. You might find what you’ve been searching for.
Current Needs
- Greater Impact is our current capital campaign to add more classrooms to better serve and accommodate an additional students. The centerpiece of the Greater Impact Campaign will be the construction of a 2-story wing housing a much larger cafeteria, college and career guidance center, Access resource room, student leadership center, and multiple classrooms and bathrooms.
- The RRR Fund (Recruit and Retain Rockstars) is a recent initiative to enable us to recruit the very best teachers to LuHi as enrollment continues to rapidly grow. “Rockstars” is a metaphor for shining stars in any profession; the best of the best. Thanks to our growth we can recruit exceptional teachers to join our outstanding faculty. Over the past three years, we added ten new full-time teachers and ten part-time experts to teach specialty electives including computer graphics, pre-engineering, astrophysics, business studies, photography, and ceramics. Next year, we will need to add even more teachers as we anticipate enrollment increasing over 10% again. We are seeking $80,000 this school year to fund this initiative.

- The Ron Brandhorst Tuition Angel Program is our ongoing annual appeal. This year’s goal of $220,000 will fund need-based tuition assistance granted to students. The aim is to help enable as many families as possible to afford an outstanding Christian education. This crucial goal can be reached with participation from immediate families, extended families, alumni, supporters, community investors, ministries, and churches.
- Become an Athletic Booster and make an immediate impact on the athletic budget, which operates separately from the school operating budget and relies on the generosity of supporters each year.
- Each November, LuHi hosts an Auction. This fun event brings our community together for an evening of food, fun, fellowship, and raising money for tuition assistance.
Planned Giving and Bequests
The Tapestry Society is composed of supporters who inform the school or association that it is a beneficiary in an estate plan or will. By informing the school in advance you can let us know what you would like your final gift to go towards (facilities, specific programs, tuition assistance, etc). Tapestry Society members will receive a twice yearly newsletter with stories about how these final gifts are making an amazing impact in this ministry to students.
