Discovering God-Given Talents and Encouraging Self-Expression

Immanuel Palatine’s certified Extended School Supervision (ESS) staff lovingly cares for students in Kindergarten through Grade 8 from 2:10pm until 6:00pm. The positive and safe environment encourages students to engage with peers in different grade levels through outside play, open gym play, games, and creative arts activities. On special occasions movies are projected. Structured time for homework is part of the daily schedule. Hourly rate is $10, and you only pay for the care you need!

Discovery Camp is a full-day camp running throughout the summer.

Bobcat Athletics

The Immanuel athletics program is a valuable part of a student’s overall development. We believe that we are to be wise stewards of the talents God has given us and should use those talents as witnesses for Christ. Our athletes strive to do their best in practice and competition while serving as positive Christian role models. Immanuel’s athletics program encourages our students to be responsible, self-disciplined, and cooperative. We glorify Jesus in all that is done on and off the playing arena!

Immanuel regularly competes at the state level in basketball, cross country, volleyball, and track and field. Our basketball and cross country teams have won both State and National championships for boys and girls.  Immanuel is credited with more State and National appearances than any other Lutheran school in the country.

We offer the following athletics programs:

  • Basketball

  • Cross Country

  • Track and Field

  • Volleyball

In addition to organized extracurricular athletics, Immanuel students participate in physical education classes. Training in group sports and activities is supplemented with personal health and fitness education.
