MISSION STATEMENT St. Luke’s Episcopal School is a Christian community dedicated to academic and personal excellence, lifelong learning, and service to others.

THE ST. LUKE’S WAY As members of a Christian community, our conduct is guided by love and respect for God, our school, our neighbors, and ourselves. We demonstrate the St. Luke’s Way through behavior that is courteous and cooperative.

NON-DISCRIMINATORY POLICY St. Luke’s Episcopal School admits qualified students of any race, color, or national and ethnic origin to all rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school. St. Luke’s does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national and ethnic origin in administration of its educational policies, admission policies or financial aid programs, athletic and other school-administered programs. St. Luke’s does not discriminate against any person in admission, employment, or otherwise because of race, color, religion, national origin, disability, gender, sexual orientation, or age in violation of existing state or federal law or regulations.

DIVERSITY AND EQUITY STATEMENT St. Luke’s welcomes diversity and respects differences in ethnic, cultural, and religious backgrounds; the languages we speak; our sexes, genders, and ages; the traditions we observe; the structures of our families; our financial and educational resources; and the special needs and gifts that we have. Welcoming people with diverse points of view and being sensitive to the interests and traditions of others emulates Christ-like principles of living and enhances the quality of the entire St. Luke’s experience.
