2026 Honors Convocation

Our annual Honors Convocation was held on Monday, May 18, at 7:00 p.m. in the Main Gym. This special evening serves as an opportunity to recognize and celebrate our students for their academic achievements, leadership, service, and dedication throughout their time at Lutheran North. During the convocation, students were honored with department awards, athletic awards, and other distinctions recognizing excellence both inside and outside the classroom.

Each year, we gather together in thanksgiving to God for the incredible young people He has entrusted to our school community:

Young people who have distinguished themselves through acts of service and achievement;
Young people who have prepared themselves for lives of future leadership, service, and excellence;
Young people who have been a blessing to Lutheran North and who will continue to be a blessing to their churches, communities, and future endeavors.

As we celebrated the accomplishments of our students, we were reminded of the words from Daniel 1:17:

“To these… God gave knowledge and understanding of all kinds of literature and learning.”
— Daniel 1:17

Congratulations to all of the students recognized during this year’s Honors Convocation. We thank God for your hard work, perseverance, and the many ways you reflect His gifts in our school community.
