== History ==
The passion for providing quality education paved the way for the establishment of St. Luke's. The school had its beginning with only 8 students in 1955 in Subathu, a cantonment area. It was named as Ephiphany School with Rev. Father Christanand as its founder. In 1957, the school was shifted to Solan and housed in a rented building known as Badru-Khan House. St. Luke's is named after one of the Gospel writers St. Luke. In 1962 the school was granted permanent recognition due to the strenuous efforts of Rev. Fr. Emmanuel, who rendered his services to the school till 1973. After Fr. Emmanuel left, Fr. Persy took over as Manager cum Principal for a short duration. Fr. S.J.F. More joined as Manager cum Principal. Fr. More with his vast and solid experience of working in many reputed schools planned a spacious school building. However the project could not be materialized due to some financial constraints. Fr. More left for Bhopal in 1979. In 1980, the vacuum left by Fr. More was temporarily filled by Dr. Fr. M.M. Mascarenhas who was called from Pune. He left St. Luke's in 1981. At that time Mr. Darry Micheal who was the headmaster of the school took over as the Principal and Fr. C.J. Alvares from Mangalore took over the charge as Manager of the school. It was under the able guidance of Fr. Alvares and unstinting work of Mr. Micheal that the new school building was blessed by Rt. Rev. Dr. G.B. Rego on 14 June 1986. Since then there was no looking behind. It was in 1992 that the Bishop of Simla Chandigarh Diocese invited the Bethany Sisters to run the school after Mrs. Agatha Thomas who was the principal left the school. Sister Marceline with 3 other sisters took over the charge as Principal. Sr. Wilberta who took over the charge from Sr. Marceline worked tirelessly to upgrade the school to +2 level. She was the master mind to make St. Luke's the Accredited Center for Open School.
The school had a humble beginning with only 8 students, but with passage of time, it made rapid strides and the present strength is more than 2000 students on roll. The rise in strength brought the need for more accommodation. Hence a separate building for Primary students was inaugurated by Rt. Rev. Dr. Gerald John Mathias. In 1997 the school was upgraded to +2 level. At present, the school has a spacious and well furnished building with sprawling lawns and play grounds.
