For over 50 years Astoria Lutheran School has been rich in academic achievements
This is due in part to our fine teachers who have been with our school for years and are dedicated to helping each and every student do his and her very best. Astoria Lutheran School is fortunate to have a strong academic faculty, many of whom have been teaching for over 20 years, and have been awarded “Teacher of the Year” by the Lutheran Schools Association. In 2014, our principal/director was named “Principal of the Year” by the Evangelical Lutheran Education Association and a “National Distinguished Principal” by the National Association of Elementary School Principals.
