Mount Olive School

Welcome!

Mount Olive Lutheran School in Mankato, Minnesota is a Christian elementary day school offering Kindergarten through 8th grade.

Mount Olive Lutheran School exists to carry out Christ’s commission to make disciples of all nations by assisting parents in the Christian training of their children to live a life of faith here on earth and forever after in Heaven.

Mount Olive is a place where children will learn to know God the Father who created them, God the Son who redeemed them from the curse of sin by His blood, and God the Holy Spirit who created faith in His children through His Word and baptism, and continues to nourish their faith through His Word. All subjects are taught under the guidance of God’s Word. All teaching, learning, guiding, and living are directed by that life-giving Word and, with our Lord’s blessing, will result in each student growing in faith and love for the Lord and for others.

Mount Olive Lutheran School is a member of the Evangelical Lutheran Synod.

Loving Environment

Our family is so thankful for the quality education Mt. Olive provides for our two children. We have been impressed with the academic level the school offers, along with the biblical teaching that is integrated into their daily schedules. The staff and teachers have consistently shown concern, compassion, and love toward our children (and all students), whether in the classroom, on the playground, at sporting events, at church, or just seeing them in the community. Mt. Olive is providing them an excellent education in a kind, loving, Christian environment.
