ETHAN WATTS RECEIVES J.T. SMITH HEART OF THE TEAM AWARD

Ethan Watts was presented with the J.T. Smith Heart of the Team Award. The award criteria are good sportsmanship, support, encouragement of teammates, and a great example to young players. Congratulations to Ethan for receiving such an honor! We were thankful to have J.T.'s family present for the award. ***J.T., a 2023 graduate of St. Luke's, passed away on November 19, 2023, at 19.

SECOND GRADE PERFORMS "THE TALE OF THREE TREES"

Our talented 2nd graders took the stage to perform "The Tale of Three Trees"! This beautiful story, based on a cherished Christian folk tale, tells the journey of three little trees with dreams as vast as the mountaintop sky. Each tree faced unexpected paths, but through faith, they discovered God's extraordinary plans for them, intertwining with the story of Jesus.

Our 2nd graders brought this touching tale to life, reminding us that even when our dreams seem dashed, a divine plan unfolds in ways beyond our imagination. Their performance was heartfelt, inspiring, and a remarkable testament to the power of faith and destiny.

ST. LUKE'S COMMITMENT DAY 2025

St. Luke’s Commitment Day was a festive and enthusiastic occasion as we honored our seniors. This special day celebrates these talented students' remarkable achievements and future aspirations as they prepare to embark on their next exciting chapter.

ST. LUKE'S VERY OWN WAX MUSEUM

The annual 5th Grade Wax Museum brought history back to life! It was as if history’s most famous people came to St. Luke’s to recall their stories and accomplishments! Students researched and dressed up as their historical figures, stood frozen until someone “pressed the button,” and gave their speech before returning to being frozen again. We always look forward to this event because it is the perfect unique blend of education and entertainment, as the 5th grade showcases their creativity and understanding of historical figures and events.

ST. LUKE'S JUNIORS ATTEND MOBILE AREA LEADERSHIP SUMMIT

The following juniors attended the Mobile Area Leadership Summit: Ally Grace Lowell, Baker Garside, Ella Bentley, Mac Boone, and Carter Spivey. The summit provided students with an engaging, interactive experience that empowered them to develop and refine their leadership skills. It facilitated a collaborative and supportive environment where they could learn from each other and experienced leaders.

ST. LUKE'S TRACK & FIELD: GOOD LUCK AT STATE!

Good luck to our Track and Field team as they compete at the State Championship. Your dedication, hard work, and unwavering spirit have brought you to this moment, and we’re all cheering for your success! Push your limits, support your teammates, and represent St. Luke’s with pride!

ST. LUKE'S GIRLS' TENNIS TEAM SUCCESS

St. Luke’s girls tennis team had great success at the Alabama High School Athletic Association State Tennis Championship. Junior Ella Bentley once again showcased her exceptional talent by capturing her third consecutive No. 1 singles title. Ella joins an elite group of 3-time individual state championship winners. We are so proud of Ella’s outstanding achievement and perfect individual season record of 25-0.


Ella Bentley and Sophomore Lauren Watson showcased their exceptional skills on the tennis court, clinching the coveted blue map as the No. 1 doubles champions. Lauren Watson also won the #2 Singles Championship.
