St. Luke Academy

One Step Ahead

St. Luke Academy is the first Orthodox School in Orange County, open to all faiths. We pride ourselves on being a wonderful place for children to grow in Christ, while receiving a high-quality education from a team that cares.

St. Luke Academy emphasizes the development of the whole child by promoting Christian character development and love for God in a safe, trustworthy and loving environment.

Community & Gospel

St. Luke Academy is designed to serve the families and children of the community. This service has grown from a sincere love for children and a desire to help them develop and grow in Christ.

We strive to create a valuable link between school, church and home for students, connecting the Gospel of Christ to daily life.

Early Learning & Growth

We believe in starting academic as early as 18 months, which ensures a strong foundation in language skills.

We believe in the effectiveness of a wide range of strategies purposefully designed to encourage exploration, creativity, and conceptualization.

St. Luke Academy aims to provide superior and challenging STEAM-based curriculum that includes project-based learning while promoting critical thinking and creativity.
