School Principal, Joan Annas
Christ Lutheran School is a private Christian school located on a beautiful pastoral campus in West Covina. An educational tradition since 1957, the school accepts students age two through eighth grade. In 2003, CLS was acknowledged by the United States Department of Education as a National Blue Ribbon School and was accredited by WASC in 2006.
Academic excellence and teaching the Christian values comprise the core of our kindergarten through eighth grade program. Caring qualified credentialed teachers, many with masters’ degrees, guide students at Christ Lutheran spiritually, physically and academically. Students benefit from a strong academic program with emphasis on math, reading, problem solving and study skills.
The preschool is a licensed and accredited facility for children two years of age through pre-kindergarten. The two year olds need not be toilet trained. The philosophy behind the program is that young children learn best by doing in a caring, safe environment that emphasizes self-esteem and self –respect. Our pre-Kindergarten curriculum prepares the children for public and private kindergartens.
Joan Annas, principal, has also been the 3rd grade teacher since 1990, as well as the summer school principal since 2010.
