My daughter is in the kindergarten class and has been attending the school since she was 3. I've always appreciated how much the school keeps the parents involved and up to date with my child's studies and how she is doing in school. We get weekly emails from her teacher which is also greatly appreciated. The school has small class sizes and constantly has after school activities to keep students and parents involved. Would highly recommend.

My daughter attended the preschool at Immanuel for 3 years. I feel because of her time and experience in the preschool that she is quite advanced socially and academically. In her short time there, Immanuel has gifted her with a deep love and trust in God, a community that feels safe and welcoming, a passionate love for school and learning which will set her up for a bright and successful future. She is currently enrolled in the Kindergarten and loves it. We have plans to remain at Immanuel through 8th grade if possible and are grateful to be part of this school. I would give my best recommendation to anyone looking for a quality, affordable, Christian education in Albuquerque.

My kids started attending Immanuel in September. I’m extremely happy with the school. My kids are excited to go to school and they are loving their school. It’s nice to see my kids excited about school again. The school is working with my children that are struggling. They truly want children to succeed. The teachers are amazing and my kids feel like their teachers care about them. This is a fantastic school.

Best school in Albuquerque. Caring staff, challenging curriculum and a safe environment. We enrolled our son there when during Covid because we both work and Immanuel had in person learning throughout the pandemic. We decided to try APS this year, what a mistake. Unsafe and curriculum that our son learned two years ago at Immanuel. We reenrolled our child at Immanuel and he is once again happy, challenged, loved and safe. Immanuel is also very affordable and they even have extra curricular activities!

I hate it there I feel out of place in my own classroom. I'm they're cliam to diversity until I graduate. They did not provide me with a smooth transition from public to private. They did not offer me any help for the pain they cuased and are cuasing to me as a African American student that is very outnumbered. I can't tell anyone my pain without poeple making fun of me. Please if you are thinking about this school and you have a child like me please consider this review from a actual student and do your reasearch look at the diversity graph don't put your child through years of pain and pick another school the values they say they have don't match the experience I will have to put up with until graduation and when that happens I will run away from there as fast as possible.

As a parent of 2 graduates of ILS, the Christ centered education prepares the students to excel in high school and beyond.

The most amazing thing about this school is the love within its walls. They teach the love of Christ and how to love each other. The students really do seem to accept one another and to respect that which makes each young person unique. The treacherous middle school years are just way more pleasant at Immanuel. Each student understands their worth and their potential. They know they are loved by God, by the staff, and by peers. They are challenged academically at Immanuel and that is truly what every child needs. Students will rise to what is expected and they will be beyond ready for high school after graduating from Immanuel. This school is an answer to prayers!!!!

I was looking for a middle school that would be considered "high school prep" in the same way that some high schools are considered "college prep." I have not been disappointed. The curriculum here is challenging for my middle school student, and I have been very impressed with the mix between project work and individual work. I am pleased that although worksheets are used for many subjects, the learning is rounded out by projects (in teams and on your own). It's not easy; it's pretty rigorous. I'm very thankful to have found a school that has such a strong curriculum that is also teaching a Christian worldview. Even more, my child can do sports and many extracurricular activities. I can't believe they can pack all of this into a school the size of ILS, but I am thankful they do!

I attended Immanuel Lutheran School for my elementary and middle school years, and it provided me with not only a wonderful education that has been a strong foundation for continuing my education today, but it also provided me with the foundation for a successful life, and has inspired my strong faith. The teachers are wonderful, and are attentive to every student, Chapel is attended every week, they have before and after care, a wonderful preschool program, sports and extracurricular activities, as well as an excellent and compassionate staff. I was very blessed to have this educational opportunity.

After looking at several middle schools, we decided to enroll our son at Immanuel due to its excellent reputation and personal recommendations by friends. He has thrived there, with ample opportunities for extracurricular sports (which he loves), a challenging yet attainable curriculum, and positive teachers and classmates. I would recommend Immanuel to any family who is looking for a positive, Christian environment, excellent academics, opportunities for extracurricular activities (not just sports are available), and peers who truly seem to be a positive influence on one another.

Immanuel is an amazing school that has helped to mild my children into well rounded, intelligent, respectful kids! Immanuel allows them to learn in a safe environment with small class sizes. Their classes are aimed at preparing them for college even at a young age. They are also able to play sports, learn to play instruments, do art and most importantly learn about Christ!

Immanuel provides a safe and family-friendly environment in which students grow in their faith and grow in their appreciation of the world in which they live. Parents and faculty work together effectively.

Immanuel Lutheran School is a very special school. It's a place you feel comfortable leaving your children. The staff and teachers care about each child and really work to make it a loving, strong work environment. The kids seem happy to be at school and comfortable with the teachers and staff. The kids are learning a lot and the curriculum seems well rounded. I highly recommend this school!! Check it out and you will love it too!!

ILS is a top-notch school, with awesome leadership and hardworking, dedicated, inspiring teachers. It's no wonder they were recognized as a Blue Ribbon school. We transferred our daughter here and they truly turned her attitude and her academics around to where she now works hard and wants to do her best.

We found ILS six years ago and the moment we stepped onto the campus we felt the love and homey feeling the staff and students give off. Our kids are learning to be good role models for the future and we feel safe having them in a nurturing and God loving environment. They receive the best education you can ask for with the most dedicated teachers that work very long hours and are always willing to help our children academically. I only wish they had a high school too. God bless this school and church.

My children and now my grandchildren are attending this excellent K-8 grade school. Many graduates of Immanuel School place their children in this or another Lutheran school for the Christian atmosphere as well as the quality education. Immanuel has been nationally recognized.

Great school and very dedicated teachers and staff. Our daughter had been here for the last 3 years and we wished we had found the school sooner.

Our son has grown in spirit as much as body during the 4 years he had attended. Thanks to all the staff

ILS is great! It offers a solid, basic education with an emphasis on mastering fundamentals and developing critical thinking. Each person strives to emulate Christ. I know my children are not only receiving an excellent education, but they feel cared for and are safe at ILS.
