Welcome to Arizona Lutheran Academy!

I am happy you’re here, and I think you’ll like what you find.

ALA is a choice set apart from other high school options you may consider. Here you will find

  • A school with an exceptional focus on academics with available help for students who need it
  • A well-rounded educational program, involving a wide range of extra-curricular options
  • A safe place for your child to grow and get the most out of a high school experience
  • A great experience where memories that last a lifetime will be built

While a Christian background is not required for admission, we build our curriculum and other activities on the Word of God. The truth of the Word guides our teaching; the grace in the Word guides our interactions.

I hope you’ll come to see how FAITH, FAMILY, AND FUTURE comprise who we are.

Looking forward to meeting you soon!
