Visit Community Lutheran

Come See CLS for Yourself

The best way to understand Community Lutheran School is to experience it in person. Community Lutheran School is conveniently located in Readlyn, Iowa, just a short drive from Waterloo and Cedar Falls.

A visit to CLS is about stepping into classrooms where students are known by name, hearing Scripture spoken naturally, seeing teachers walk patiently with students, and sensing the calm confidence that comes from a school rooted in faith, tradition, and community.

We invite you to come see how CLS partners with families to educate students for today - and for eternity.

What You’ll Experience During Your Visit 

When you visit Community Lutheran School, you’ll see: 

01

Faith Lived Daily 

Prayer, Scripture, and liturgy woven naturally into the rhythm of the school day – not as an add-on, but as a foundation. 

02

A learning environment grounded in tradition 

Students learn time-tested truths, develop strong academic habits, and grow in responsibility and character – anchored in what works. 

03

Attentive, caring teachers 

Teachers who know their students personally and walk alongside them academically, spiritually, and emotionally. 

04

A true partnership with families 

What’s taught at home is reinforced in the classroom, creating consistency, trust, and peace of mind for parents. 

Two Campuses. One School Family.

A visit may include one or both of our campuses. Both campuses are located in northeast Iowa, serving families from Readlyn and the surrounding communities, including Waterloo and Cedar Falls.

Readlyn Campus

Located just off Main Street in Readlyn, it’s where young learners begin their educational journey in a warm, nurturing environment. 

Klinger Campus

Set on a gravel road surrounded by cornfields, this campus offers students space to grow, focus, and develop as they mature academically and spiritually. 

What Families Often Notice Right Away

Families frequently share that when they visit CLS, they notice: 
  • A sense of calm and order
  • Students who are respectful and engaged
  • Genuine warmth among staff and students
  • A school that feels personal, not rushed or crowded
