time to meet Lutheran High senior Sarah Kuhlow!
Sarah has been blessed by God with many
special gifts. Whether it be studying, dancing,
playing percussion in the band, singing in
chamber choir, or performing on stage, Sarah
puts her whole heart into whatever she does.
“My favorite memories of Lutheran High,” she
says, “are all the basketball and football games
that my friends and I cheered our hearts out for
our team, no matter the score or weather. Those
games are always a great time—just hanging out
with your best buds.”

remain in my heart as I go off to college.”
Sarah remains thankful for all that she has

continues to draw people’s attention.”

Eva says she feels
“ready to take on the
world after high school
with God at my side.”
classmates. “The friends I have made here at
Lutheran High will stay with me the rest of my
life,” she insists. “We are brought together in
Christ’s love, and that’s irreplaceable...We are
in the Word of God, in prayer, and sing praises
to Him every single day. To me…that makes a
world of difference.”
As much as she enjoys her time at Lutheran
High (“I love Lutheran High!”), Eva also looks
forward to life beyond high school. “I hope to
go to college, go pre-med, and eventually end
up with a job I love,” she explains. “Of course, I
want to get married, have a family, and travel
the world, but I’m taking one thing at a time!”
Not such an easy thing to do for someone as
gifted as Eva Nimmer.
The Multi-Talented
Ms. Nimmer
She’s talented, hard-working, intelligent, charismatic,
disciplined, and has a great smile. Her friends call
her the Eva-nator. Oh, she also loves Mr. Kind’s
(Lutheran High’s chef extraordinaire) grilled cheese
sandwiches. Meet the multi-talented, one and only
Eva Nimmer!
If you have not seen Eva acting in Soul Train,
performing with the dance team, or singing in
musicals, you probably have not been around
Lutheran High much. In fact, Eva is looking forward
to playing the lead in Lutheran High’s upcoming
musical, South Pacific, this April. You will not want to
miss the performance!
Until the musical, Eva will continue to stay very busy
at Lutheran High. Besides being involved in
musicals, Soul Train, and dance, Eva also
participates in chamber choir, treble choir, fall drama
productions, and honors band. She is an extremely
hard working student too. “Lutheran High,” she says,
“has become my home away from home. The
teachers are excellent and I’ve made awesome
friends. I’ve made so many amazing memories, and
I can’t wait to experience more!”
Some of Eva’s favorite experiences and memories
revolve around Homecoming—the bonfire and
festivities in particular. She also cherishes her

Not only is Nick an excellent student, but he is also
very active in athletics and service to his school.
Besides participating and excelling in basketball,
soccer, and baseball, Nick is also a member of
National Honor Society and student council. As a
math tutor, Nick volunteers his time helping students
learn and succeed. When Lutheran High needs help
with fundraisers or volunteers to speak to churches
and youth groups, Nick is always on hand to help.
“Lutheran High has helped me grow as a Christian
leader,” says Nick, “because they have allowed me to
take on roles, practice, and learn. The best way to
prepare for something is to practice.”

Thanks Junior Crusaders
for being at our games
and supporting our teams!
One of the things Nick likes best about Lutheran High
is the Christ-centered atmosphere. “It’s more like a
family than a school,” he explains. He also
appreciates how Lutheran High teachers “relate
schoolwork to a student’s life.”
Nick came from a public grade school, and wants all
current grade school students to know that Lutheran
High is special. “It’s an exciting place and you get to
meet great students and teachers,” he says. “Plus,
you have so many opportunities to participate in
things here.”
Nick will continue to benefit from all that he has
experienced and learned at Lutheran High. And
he, in turn, will continue to be a blessing to so
many others.

Hillary plans to go on to Iowa State University to
study athletic training and coaching in order to
become a basketball coach (she’s a huge UConn
Huskie fan). Until then, she plans on enjoying her
senior year and cherishing her Christian friends.
She knows that “all the friendships I’ve made
were built on strong Christian values and,
because of that, will last long after Lutheran High.”
Senior Hillary Kreutz
volunteers in the school

Whether it be her friends or her faith, Hillary is

Hillary Clinton has been in the news a lot. So let us
tell you about another Hillary—Lutheran High senior
Hillary Kreutz! Hillary’s care and concern for her
friends and teachers at Lutheran High is something
special. “I love watching my friends do well at things”
she says. “I thank God for them.” And that is also
one reason she likes Lutheran High so much:
“Lutheran High gives everyone an opportunity to
become involved.”
Hillary is quite active in school, too. From basketball,
volleyball, soccer, track, cross country, student
council, pep club, art scream, and National Honor
Society, to helping out in the school office, Hillary
does it all. “Lutheran High gives you this incredible
feeling of belonging,” she notes. “You realize you are
here for a purpose…It’s not just school, it’s a family
and every single teacher and student make it special
in some way.”
Of course, Hillary truly appreciates what makes
Lutheran High most special—the focus on Jesus
Christ. “Lutheran High has given me a very solid
Christian foundation,” she insists. “Everything I do,
I do with the Lord by my side. I also feel more
prepared to defend my faith if necessary.” She also
enjoys the contemporary chapels “where we just sing
songs, relax, and praise the Lord.”
