IMPACT REPORT

This Impact Brochure is extremely exciting to share with the Valley Lutheran family. It is an update on the final status of the GROWING Campaign, and it is an opportunity to celebrate what God has done as His people joined to impact the ministry of Valley Lutheran High School. We are giving this update with great joy and thanksgiving, but there’s more…We are also sharing an update on the present excitement of how the school year is progressing using all the new spaces provided by the GROWING Campaign. We want the Valley Lutheran family to know that ministry is alive and well in the hallways,

classrooms, gymnasium, athletic fields, and community.

The GROWING Campaign has allowed relationships to be developed with a greater donor base than ever before. In all, there were 1780 donors who contributed to the GROWING Campaign. God’s people coming together to do His work has been a huge source of encouragement for the faculty, staff, and students at Valley. Well done!

The GROWING Campaign has added an art room, band/music room, and four science rooms, but there’s more…Teachers are able to teach with methods and practices unlike ever before in these new classrooms, and that means students are learning like never before. The relationships between teachers and students have continued to dominate what makes Valley a special place, and the new classrooms allow for the continued passionate pursuit of excellence in everything we do at Valley Lutheran.

“THERE’S “THERE’S MORE…” MORE…”

BY JULIAN PETZOLD, PH.D.

We want to share that the GROWING Campaign goal of $10M has been achieved, and even surpassed, but there’s more…

The GROWING Campaign provided important athletic space in a new locker room, weight room, and multi-purpose room, but there’s more…Our athletic program continues to be successful in terms of developing student athletes and young Christian men and women. The new athletic spaces have helped us develop new opportunities for athletes to excel, but we have also offered a new program that helps students foster life-long healthy living.

The GROWING Campaign has provided significant investments into the Valley Lutheran Foundation, but there’s more…The Valley Lutheran Foundation just passed the $4,000,000 milestone. The foundation helps position Valley Lutheran for financial stability and academic innovation for the future. This growth in the Valley Lutheran Foundation has allowed us to dream big about our exciting future of excellent Christian education in the Great Lakes Bay Region!

The GROWING Campaign has been hugely successful in accomplishing the goals for which it was established, but there’s more…The GROWING Campaign has also helped us look to God for what He has in store for our future as we pursue excellence in fulfilling our mission: Preparing students for life with Christ as our foundation!

The GROWING Campaign has been incredibly successful! The ministry of Christian education at Valley Lutheran has been enhanced tremendously! Lives are being changed through daily academic excellence and the teaching of God’s Word! Students are developing into young men and women ready to serve God and others with their life! God has been glorified in how His people have come together in this recently completed GROWING Campaign!

In looking to the future of Valley Lutheran High School, it is incredibly exciting because there’s more!!!We’ll all need to stay tuned to see how God continues to work through all of us. Thank you for your partnership in Valley Lutheran High School.

In Christ, Julian Petzold, Ph.D. Executive Director

THE GROWING CAMPAIGN: Building for the future, upon a firm foundationThe mission and ministry of Valley Lutheran High School is just as important - and just as vibrant - as when this school was founded 43 years ago. Providing the Great Lakes Bay Region with an outstanding Christ-centered education has been our purpose and remains our purpose today.

While elements have remained the same at Valley, education is different today. Technology’s reach and role in education is undeniable. But, the true difference makers in an outstanding education continue to be dedicated Christian teachers. Our new spaces in science, the arts, and athletics allow our teachers to grow in their own pursuit of excellence and help meet the current and future needs of our students.

For the first time in over 4 decades, the building of Valley Lutheran High School has undergone significant changes in order to provide spaces to better serve our students. The addition of these quality academic, arts, and athletic spaces will help further our academic excellence as we prepare students for life, with Christ as our foundation for many decades to come

In addition to the physical improvements provided by the GROWING Campaign, the success of this bold effort has positively impacted the ministry of Valley Lutheran in other less visible, but just as important ways! From valuable student financial aid, community service hours, and fundamental goal of adding to the number of well prepared VL graduates. The GROWING Campaign has truly succeeded in meeting the needs of our current and future students.

The new space allowed us to do labs that we would not otherwise have been able to because of space constraints. It also allowed us to take our time with labs and do more in depth learning with them because we could easily store stuff away and carry them over to the next day rather than having to have the tables cleaned up for the next class coming in. It also probably prevented more students from being quarantined because they would have constantly been on top of each other in the old classroom.

Having the new space has made the VL education experience much less hectic. It’s been easier to get to and from class, get instruments and music, and keep the space we have clean!

The new weight room has helped all of our athletes become more involved in strength training. The old weight room was crowded and just not all that inviting. Everyone now feels comfortable going to the weight room and lifting which is very beneficial to our entire athletic program.
