Christ Lutheran School
North St. Paul, Minnesota
"Where faith and learning come together"
Christ Lutheran School serves preschool through 8th grade in North St. Paul, attached to a WELS congregation that's been in the neighborhood since 1964. Daily Bible lessons, small classes, before and after care at Cougar Corner, and a preschool capped at 20 kids. For a school this size every enrolled family matters, so we built the entire website around one action: book a tour.

Website Type
Non-Profit Design & Build
Every page points to one green button.
School decisions don't happen online. They happen on campus, when a parent watches a teacher greet their kid by name. So the site has one job: get the tour booked. Everything else exists to support that.
Book a Tour Form
The conversion engine of the whole site. It captures the student's name, current and desired grade, target school year, and how the family heard about the school, so staff walk into every tour already knowing the family.
Four-Step Admissions Path
Visit, apply, shadow day with benchmark testing, decision. Parents see the whole road before they start walking it, which lowers the anxiety of switching schools more than any brochure could.
Transparent Tuition
Full pricing tables published for every schedule, from part-time preschool to a flat K-8 rate. No “call us for pricing” games. Families that book tours already know they can afford it.
Preschool Program Options
Two, three, or five days a week. Half day or full day. Three-year-olds, four-year-olds, and young fives. Every combination laid out clearly so working parents can find the schedule that actually fits.
Parent Resources & Cougar Corner
Supply lists for every grade, family handbooks, a school calendar, and a news feed, plus a page for Cougar Corner before and after care. Current families stop calling the office for answers the site already has.
Golf Classic & School Shop
The school's annual Golf Classic fundraiser gets its own page in the main navigation, and a linked spirit-wear shop lets families rep the school year-round. Fundraising and belonging, both built in.
Warm, green, and unmistakably them.
Small Christian schools win on warmth, not polish for polish's sake. The design leans into real classroom photography and the school's green brand so the site feels like the hallway does.
