Oak Grove Lutheran School provides a faith-based, Christian education for students from age 3 through grade 12 on two campuses in Fargo, North Dakota. The school, continuously accredited for nearly 100 years, emphasizes a mission focused on academics, faith and service.
The school started in 1906 as the Oak Grove Lutheran Ladies Seminary on the site of today’s North Campus. Boys joined the student body in 1926. More information on the school’s history is available on our history page.
The high school and middle school divisions, located on the historic North Campus, enroll students in grades 6-12. Faculty teach classes in the humanities, arts, social sciences, physical sciences, Christian studies, wellness, languages and business for students in grades 6-12. Extracurricular and co-curricular activities are held in the Scheels Center for the Performing Arts and the Gorder Gymnasium on the North Campus. Oak Grove limits enrollment to 60 students per grade on the North Campus.
The South Campus welcomes children in preschool, kindergarten and grades 1-5. The campus — located along 32nd Avenue in south Fargo between Interstate 29 and 25th Street — includes three buildings linked together and outdoor play areas. Oak Grove holds enrollment at 16 students per room in kindergarten and first grade and 20 students per room in grades 2-5.
Oak Grove leaders have worked with several families whose children have learning challenges that can be accommodated within the school’s available resources.
