Lutheran North Academy is a private Christian high school in Houston, Texas, United States.

It is in the Garden Oaks area.[1] It and three other schools in the Houston area are operated by the Lutheran Education Association of Houston (LEAH).[2]
History
Lutheran High School opened at 6901 Woodridge in Houston in 1949. In the 1950s, as the Houston area continued to grow, land for a future second high school was purchased at 1130 W. 34th Street on the north side of the city. Ground was broken for Lutheran High School North on December 2, 1972, and freshmen and sophomores began classes on October 1, 1980. In 1983, the Lutheran High School campus was replaced by two campuses, one of which was Lutheran North[3] The other campus, Lutheran High School South, which later became Lutheran South Academy,[4] was opened at 7703 South Loop East, near the intersection of the 610 Loop and Interstate 45; that is now the site of the Harris County Department of Education.
The first homecoming football game at Lutheran North was played in October 1982, and the first graduation ceremony occurred in spring 1983.[3] In 2022, middle school classes (grades 6–8) were added and the school's name was changed to Lutheran Academy North.[2]
In April 2024 the school announced that it would cease operations.[5]
