Description

The October 1994 edition (Volume 12, Number 8) of "The Crusader," a publication of the Lutheran High School Association of Central FL, featured an article recalling how a Lutheran High School came to be established in Orlando. The concept gradually gained support following the first meeting to consider the feasibility and need for such a school, which took place in February, 1971. By December, 1973, the LHSA was incorporated, but it would be another 18 months before the first classes were held on the campus of Prince of Peace Lutheran Church, with Lester Zimmerman serving as the first principal of Luther High School. By the time this edition of "The Crusader" was published (in 1994), the school had experienced many changes in leadership, many financial (and legal)challenges in relocating to its own property on Econlockhatchee Trail, had evolved into Orlando Luther Middle and High School and was under the leadership of Principal Richard Wallace. The original Association(of individual members) which was established in 1973 was now being revised and revitalized to provide more financial stability from congregations and from individuals who were committed to Lutheran education.
