The 8th Annual Zion Lutheran School Gala, Reach for the Stars, will be held April 27, 2019 at the Crooked Willow in Osakis, MN. The event includes both a silent and live auction, dinner and entertainment. The auction is led by an auctioneer who does an excellent job highlighting donors and sponsors. The event is attended by 200-250 guests from the Alexandria community and beyond. As a nonprofit 503c Corporation, Zion relies on third source funding to keep tuition affordable and a viable option to those who seek a quality Christian education. Money also goes towards operating costs of the facility. The Gala is the school's major fundraiser. The school is made up of 155 Pre-School through 8th grade students. Many of our past students have become strong leaders in the community, serving in roles as police officers, engineers, teachers, homemakers, etc. Zion Lutheran School is an integral component to the community as it trains up the next generation of Christian leaders.
