General FAQs
No! Families of our community who seek an exceptional Christian education for their children are encouraged to call us to schedule a meeting and a tour of the school.
A Christian education promotes a God-pleasing character in students. Children learn how to treat others by mirroring what Jesus did for us. Most importantly, they learn about their Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and how his death and resurrection has given them eternal life with Him in heaven.
We aim to keep each classroom at less than 15 students.
To view tuition and fees for Kindergarten through Eighth Grade, please view our Admissions page here.
If our classes are not full, you may enroll at any time. There is no additional fee for enrolling during the school year.
We believe that the Word of God in and with the water of Holy Baptism works forgiveness of sins, rescues from death and the devil and gives eternal salvation to all who believe this. We have students at Redeemer who have not been baptized. Any parents who have students that wish to be baptized are encouraged to talk with our pastor.
We currently have swings and a jungle gym, scooters, tricycles, a basketball court, and a large grassy area with room to run. We are constantly looking to expand our playground and equipment for both P.E. and recess.
The faculty members of Redeemer Lutheran School are trained educators with an average experience of over 20 years.

Preschool FAQs
We are licensed for children ages 2.5 years (30 months) through five years old.
Although we are licensed for up to 10 students in each preschool classroom, we start each school year with between 6-8 children in each classroom, then add any additional students throughout the year. We never exceed 10 students per class with 2 staff in each class for a ratio of 5:1 children to staff.
You may enroll your child throughout the year at any time. Please contact us to confirm the days you desire to enroll your child and to verify we have an opening
At Redeemer Lutheran School, we have the best qualified and experienced staff in the Uncompahgre Valley. All the preschool teachers have at least five years of classroom experience and all are qualified by the state of Colorado as Early Childhood teachers.
The tuition varies by the number of full days and half days your child attends. Please view our pricing table on the Preschool page here.
As a childcare provider, Tiny Treasures Preschool staff are partners in the children’s activities and learning rather than just a supervisor. Throughout the day, we work to form caring relationships with the children, support their play ideas, share control with them, focus on individual strengths and needs of each child, and promote a problem-solving approach to social conflict.

The staff are all godly examples of spiritual nurturing, care and love besides high academics for each student.

“I have been holding off on writing this review. I have wanted to keep this place a secret from the world. I think it is time now, to share my thoughts and my opinions. Mainly, because it is selfish of me to hide such a gem. I have a little girl in Tiny Treasures – who absolutely loves going to this school. She is not only happy there, but is advanced in her schooling (numbers, writing, letters, etc.) and shares her knowledge of Jesus, too. My son is in 2nd Grade – and what a Godsend this place is to our family and our boy. He used to have so many problems with behavior and being bullied by older kids. Not here!!! He loves going to school, has improved in reading and excelled in math. Most of all, he is excited about bible study!! He admits most of it is due to his teacher. And I see the behavior of other students as excellent. REDEEMER LUTHERAN has the staff and the love for these children. They love being teachers and it truly shows. It is also evident that they LOVE LOVE LOVE their job, what an inspiration to all of us parents. Can’t believe I am letting this all out, I know they can survive with their faith and energy and excitement about this wonderful school. See you all next year!” –Parent
