Christ the King Lutheran School is blessed to serve a diverse body of students aged two through the eighth grade with a qualified professional staff. More than half of our student body comes from the surrounding community and are not members of a Lutheran Church. It is the mission of Christ the King Church to reach out to the community so we welcome you to apply for admission into our school. You do not have to be Lutheran; more than half of the students currently attending are not Lutheran.
Christ the King is approved by the State of Tennessee, accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS/CASI), and holds National Lutheran Schools Accreditation (NLSA).
Christ the King Lutheran school is also a member of the Memphis Association of Independent Schools (MAIS) and a member of the Lutheran Education Association (LEA).
CTK graduates are well prepared to meet any challenges they may encounter in high school. Most importantly, they know Jesus Christ as their Savior and as a real and personal force in their lives.
