Thank you for ordering Spirit Wear!

All of the school & church orders were successfully delivered to St. Paul and were distributed to students and families.

Dress Code Reminder…Fall is here! The last day to wear shorts was today, Tuesday, September 30. We look forward to Friday, May 1, 2026, when we will be able to wear shorts once again.

The 4th-8th grade First Quarter Wildcat Club had the opportunity to complete a Service Project for the school. St. Paul was gifted a Thrivent Action Grant to prep the upstairs boys bathroom for a bathroom stall door paint refresh. The Wildcat Club volunteers spent three Fridays in September from 3:15 pm-4:15 pm using gloves, magic erasers, washcloths, and water to peel old blue paint and white primer. The volunteers were good listeners, hard workers, and exhibited the desire to help our school. 

Mrs. Matyas would like to thank: Ethan Matyas, Tyler Burk, Shay Kukulski, Isaac Matyas, Sophia Gettel, and Leo Behmlander for volunteering in service to our school. 

The boys bathroom received a fresh coat of paint on Thursday, September 29. Thank you Wildcats for your help!

Dear St. Paul Parents,

As a part of the accreditation process, St. Paul Lutheran School is inviting you to complete a Parent Survey.

The survey has 7 sections: Lutheran Education, Education Quality, Leadership, Communication, Relationships, Facilities, and Finance. It is estimated to take about 5 minutes to complete.

The survey is anonymous.

The Parent Survey will be open until Friday, October 17. Your feedback is important to us. If you have any questions please contact the school office.

To Note: This is a different survey than ParentPulse. The questions are generated from the National Lutheran School Accreditation process. 4 groups of people are being surveyed during the accreditation process: parents, students (grades 4-8), teachers, and board members. 

Mrs. Sue Headings our Head Cook at St. Paul Lutheran School would like to invite St. Paul Church Members to consider the “Adopt Our Cold Bar Program”. Church members can learn more about the “Adopt our Cold Bar Program” in the brochure located near the ramp of the Ministry Center or by clicking here.

No time to shop?! Monetary donations are always welcomed and appreciated!

• Thank you Roy & Donna Schmidt for sponsoring the Cold Bar during the week of September 29-30. We appreciate your generosity!

All are invited to be a part of St. Paul in Prayer, a new group beginning here at St. Paul that will be meeting once a week to pray for our school, students, staff, and church. Each meeting will be one hour long as we use a specific format for praying using scripture as our guide. We will have an informational meeting on Thursday, Oct. 9 at 8:00 a.m. in the St Paul Ministry Center. Even if you do not have children or grandchildren at St. Paul, you may still come and join us in prayer. If you have any questions, please call or Text Heidi Schultz at 989-450-0975.

St. Paul’s School Counselor Elizabeth from Wellspring will be in the building every other Monday throughout the school year. If you would like your student to meet with Counselor Elizabeth, please fill out the referral form.
