Overview
West Michigan Lutheran is committed to providing a rigorous college-prep curriculum. It is our teacher’s passion for working closely with every student that ensures we continually achieve that academic excellence for which WMLHS is known. The results of this focus on academic excellence can be seen each year as our graduates apply for admission to universities and colleges across the nation. Our graduating class last year experienced a 100% acceptance ratio, which is not uncommon for WMLHS graduates.
