Development
Evergreen Lutheran was started in 1978 at its first campus in DuPont, Washington. It lost this lease in 1988, and its campus is currently being shared with Holy Trinity Lutheran Church in Des Moines, which it leases from the Church. Portable units were installed in 1989 and 1990 and the building was opened in 1991. Over the past few years Evergreen has attempted to secure property to upgrade to a larger campus. Its past attempts to secure land for building in Gig Harbor, Washington and Tacoma, Washington have been unsuccessful. Evergreen has successfully purchased the campus of Mount Rainier Lutheran High School in Tacoma, Washington. They will begin moving in this summer (2013)

Famous quotes containing the word development:
“Dissonance between family and school, therefore, is not only inevitable in a changing society; it also helps to make children more malleable and responsive to a changing world. By the same token, one could say that absolute homogeneity between family and school would reflect a static, authoritarian society and discourage creative, adaptive development in children.”
—Sara Lawrence Lightfoot (20th century)
“The highest form of development is to govern one’s self.”
—Zerelda G. Wallace (1817–1901)
“On fields all drenched with blood he made his record in war, abstained from lawless violence when left on the plantation, and received his freedom in peace with moderation. But he holds in this Republic the position of an alien race among a people impatient of a rival. And in the eyes of some it seems that no valor redeems him, no social advancement nor individual development wipes off the ban which clings to him.”
—Frances Ellen Watkins Harper (1825–1911)
