Get Involved in GRACE!

GRACE (God’s Resources Active in Christian Education) is the Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) of Christ Community Lutheran School. GRACE exists to represent parents, partner with teachers and staff, and provide meaningful support that strengthens both our school community and the Christ-centered education our children receive. Our mission is to walk alongside families, teachers, and staff as we build community together and provide resources that enrich the learning environment for every student.

Throughout the school year, GRACE plays a part in many of the events that make CCLS such a vibrant place—like the All-School Marathon, Back to School Night, Pumpkin Painting, the Spring Event, and more. However, these events would also not be possible without our amazing parent volunteers. We rely on them to make the magic happen! Whether it is lending a hand at a big event or helping behind the scenes, the support we get from parents is always amazing and is a big contributor to the success of GRACE.

But GRACE is not just about events. We are also here as a voice for parents, a place to bring questions, and a central hub for communication about opportunities to serve and stay connected at CCLS. The door to GRACE is always open to all parents, and we would love to hear from you. Please share your ideas with us and help shape the work we do together. Your input matters, and your partnership helps make our school stronger.

At the heart of GRACE is a desire to see Christ glorified through the partnership of families, teachers, and staff. When we come together in service, we not only strengthen our school community but also reflect God’s love to one another and to our children. Every act of volunteering, every idea shared, and every prayer lifted helps create a school where students grow in knowledge, faith, and character. Together, with God’s guidance, we can continue to build a community rooted in His grace and overflowing with His blessings.
