Lutheran High School West, located in Rocky River, Ohio, is a high school affiliated with the Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod (LCMS). Its goal is to provide an "educationally rich experience in a Christ-centered environment".

History of the school includes separating from the old Lutheran High School in downtown Cleveland (due to the construction of Interstate 90) and separating into Lutheran High School West and Lutheran High School East.

Recent expansions (completed in 2004) have more than doubled the physical size of the school.

Formally a member of the Metropolitan Area Conference (MAC-8), Lutheran High School West is now a member of the Patriot Athletic Conference (PAC-10).
