Nebraska Evangelical Lutheran High School Reviews
Rating 4.65 out of 5 65 reviews
NELHS is the best high school I've ever gone to, hands down. The dorms are a great feature because getting used to not always being home at a younger age helps for future uses and you learn some nice life skills from it. The schooling is top notch, all your classmates are your friends and roommates so its one big happy family. Living in the dorms there is never a dull moment, someone is always doing something funny. Some awesome teacher role-models too!
Students all have a place at NELHS, the family atmosphere is amazing. Teachers communicate and support students while challenging them to be their best. Every student has the opportunity to be an athlete, an academic scholar, and involved in the arts..sometimes all at the same time! We are so grateful to have discovered NELHS and have been blesss3d to watch our son thrive there.
Nebraska Lutheran High School is by far one of the best high schools around. The teachers actually care about your kid and make sure that they are successful. The principal is personable and deals with problems quickly. The entire staff is there to make sure that your child gets a Christian education. They have tutoring available on a regular basis. They have chapel twice a day if your child is on campus. You will see a big difference in your child’s spiritual growth during the four years that your child is there. My child was able to get the full high school experience in a small school. She was able to be in cheerleading, volleyball, choir and much more. She is also prepared to go on to college and has become a student with good study habits and mature outlook. I would recommend Nebraska Lutheran High school to anybody looking for a quality Christian school that has your child’s best interest at heart! Check them out. You will not be disappointed.
