A Legacy of Learning
Nurturing South Side Private School
For generations, we have been serving PreK-8th grade students in Chicago’s South Shore neighborhood. With a St. Paul education, your child will understand what it means to follow Jesus and to grow as God’s child. We recognize that all children are unique and have different learning needs, so we provide students with hands-on instruction designed to push, uplift, and help them flourish. At St. Paul, every child is seen and known in a faith-based private school community.

Academics
At St. Paul Lutheran School, we offer a balanced curriculum based on the Common Core State Standards. Our intimate class sizes and one-on-one instruction allow students to reach their full academic potential.
