History

Faith Lutheran campus in 2019

Faith Lutheran was founded in 1979.

In 2017, the school added a 1,381-square-foot (128.3 m2) classroom complex which included the Academy of Business & Entrepreneurship and the Academy of Film and Broadcast.[2]

In 2019, Faith Lutheran was the first school in Nevada to have a varsity hockey team.[3]

During the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, the school's graduation was at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway and students took a lap after receiving their diplomas.[4][5] In December 2020, the school broke ground on a new $3.4 million dollar tennis complex on campus.[6]

In 2020, the school opened a flight school, with the $1.1 million Odor Family Flight Academy complex being constructed in 2022 which includes FAA-approved simulators and partnership with 702 Aviation at North Las Vegas Airport.[7][8]

In 2021, the school became the first in Nevada to send a team to the CyberPatriot national finals.[9]

In 2024, the school broke ground on a two story, nearly 100,000 square foot extension called the Hooks Family Innovation & Technology Center. Set to open for the 2026-2027 school year, the 32 classroom space will feature classrooms for e-sports, robotics, environmental sciences, additional math and science classrooms, and an auto shop.[10]
