Join us as we honor the 54th Graduating Class of Mayer Lutheran High School!

Commencement

Class Motto

The true test of character is not how much we know how to do, but how we behave when we don’t know what to do.

Bible Verse

“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.” Colossians 3:23-24
