Established in 1959, Holy Cross Lutheran School has been committed to academic excellence. On February 27th 1997, Holy Cross entered the crossroads of the future when it moved into a newly constructed, $4,600,000 facility. Located on twenty acres of land at 600 N Greenwich Rd, Wichita Kansas, the school provides facilities for enhancing its distinguished Christian academic programs. Our campus has classrooms for preschool through eighth grade, a resource room, regulation gymnasium with auditorium staging, science laboratory, computer laboratory, a spacious library, music and band room, kitchen with a commons area for the student’s lunchroom, youth lighthouse center as well as office areas for the church, school, and preschool. The campus also has a playground area specifically designed for our preschoolers and one for our K-8th grade students. We have a large athletic field which accommodates a full-sized soccer field kept in peak condition. The entire building is built with the future in mind. It contains all of the necessary technology for computer networking, TV cabling and closed circuit TV production and communication. Graduates from Holy Cross go on to become state scholars and are recruited by the local high schools, including East High’s prestigious International Baccalaureate Program.
