What FAITH LUTHERAN ACADEMY does

Faith Lutheran Academy (FLA) is a private, nonprofit Christian elementary school serving 432 students in Kindergarten through Grade 5 at its single campus in Summerlin, Las Vegas, Nevada. Founded in 2002 as a ministry of Faith Community Lutheran Church & Schools, the school is operated under Nevada Revised Statute 394.211 and accredited by the National Lutheran Schools Accreditation (NLSA) with Exemplary Status, the highest accreditation tier. Students are taught in small class sizes of approximately 24 per classroom with a full-time teacher assistant in K-1 and part-time assistant in grades 2-5, and over half of faculty hold a Master's degree or higher.

The core academic product spans Bible Study/Religion, Reading/Language Arts, Math, Science, and Social Studies, augmented by Specials (PE, Spanish, Art, Music, Library), a 1:1 iPad technology program across all K-5 grades, Apple TVs and interactive projectors in each classroom, and a RenWeb SIS/communication portal integrated with Office 365, Renaissance Place, Dreambox, Connect Ed, Code.org, and Apple Classroom. Add-on offerings include a STEM Enrichment program for top-quintile MAP scorers, Robotics and STEM Club, athletics (cross-country, volleyball, basketball), Second Step SEL, a Resource Program for students with learning differences, a Leadership Program, the Kids Empowering Kids mission club, and the Safe Key before/after-school care program operating 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.

The Academy generates revenue primarily through recurring tuition billed annually, semi-annually, or across 10- or 12-month installments at $13,250 for the 2025-2026 school year, plus an $800 registration and curriculum fee. Tuition assistance of up to 50% is administered via FACTS Grant & Aid and channeled through at least six registered Scholarship Grant Organizations under Nevada's Educational Choice Scholarship Program. Distribution is direct-to-consumer via campus visits, a RenWeb online application portal, and a tightly integrated referral pipeline from Faith Lutheran Preschool (75% K feeder rate) and the Faith Lutheran Middle/High School (94% Academy-to-Middle-School transition). The Academy holds the 2024 Nevada Purple Star Schools Award designation, prioritizing military-connected families in the Las Vegas market.

Others

• FACTS (FACTS Management): Technology partner providing tuition management, financial aid assessment (FACTS Grant & Aid), and website services to FLA and many peer private schools. Included as an enabling/ecosystem participant, not a direct competitor.

Direct peers

• Faith Lutheran Middle School & High School: The downstream K-12 campus within the same Faith Lutheran ecosystem that 94% of FLA graduates feed into. Operates under the same church/school brand with overlapping admissions, mission, and feeder dynamics — the most directly comparable peer by organizational structure and customer base.
• Bishop Gorman High School: Catholic 6-12 school in Las Vegas that competes for the same faith-based education segment in the Las Vegas Valley. Comparable on faith-centered curriculum, athletic programming, and college-preparatory positioning, though it serves grades 6-12 rather than K-5.
• Trinity Lutheran School: A Lutheran elementary school in the broader Las Vegas Valley competing for the same Lutheran-family segment. Comparable on denominational affiliation, K-8 grade span, and faith-based curriculum integration.
• Alexander Dawson School at Rainbow Mountain: A private K-8 school in the Summerlin/Las Vegas area with a similar tuition band and technology-forward, individualized-learning ethos. Direct competitor for the same affluent Summerlin family demographic.
• Lumen Christi Catholic School: Catholic K-8 school in Las Vegas offering a faith-based curriculum at a comparable price point to FLA. Directly competes for families seeking private religious elementary education in the Las Vegas market.
• St. Viator School: Catholic K-8 school in Las Vegas serving families seeking faith-based private elementary education. Comparable on religious mission, tuition tier, and target demographic, though Catholic rather than Lutheran.
• Faith Lutheran Preschool: The upstream preschool within the same Faith Lutheran ecosystem that supplies 75% of FLA's Kindergarten class. Operates the same faith-based mission and shared brand, making it the closest comparable on customer segmentation and feeder mechanics.
• Lamb of God Lutheran School: Another Lutheran K-8 school in the Las Vegas area offering a directly comparable faith-based curriculum and similar tuition structure to FLA. Most analogous competitor on Lutheran mission and grade span.

Broad incumbents

• The Meadows School: The largest independent private K-12 school in Las Vegas and the most prominent non-faith-based alternative in the same metro. Comparable on premium private education positioning, scale, and aspirational family demographic, though it does not offer the Lutheran faith-based curriculum.
