Admissions Policy
Fox Valley Lutheran High Schools welcomes students from the Fox River Valley and from across the world who are willing to follow FVL's enrollment policy.
FVL does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national and ethnic origin, or disability in the administration of its educational policies, admission policies, financial aid, loan programs, athletics and other school-administered programs.
The majority of FVL's student body comes from the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS) churches of Fox Valley Lutheran High School Federation.
Since opening our new campus, enrollment by homeschool students, students from other church bodies, and from foreign countries has been growing. In addition, students from other WELS congregations in northern Wisconsin also attend. FVL.
All students follow the school's religion curriculum requirements and attend chapel.
Please contact the school at admissions@fvlhs.org with any questions.
