History
Concordia Academy originated in 1893 as the high school portion of Concordia College (now University) in St. Paul, Minnesota. In 1967, the academy merged with St. Paul Lutheran High School, which had been founded in 1959. St. Paul Lutheran had occupied the building at 2400 North Dale Street in Roseville since 1962; that location became the site of the merged schools.
