What safety precautions have you taken to protect students during school hours?
Doors are locked during the day and there are card readers at all entrances and video surveillance throughout the property. All Visitors must be buzzed in and must check in to office and wear visitor badge while in the building. All parents must complete forms authorizing who can pick up their child after school.
How can I meet and socialize with other students to make new friends?
Getting involved in several school activities or sports will rapidly increase your ability to make friends. Every year LCS has special activities through which you will meet new friends. We also offer new student orientations at the beginning of each year for students and parents to meet one another and "Connector" parents in their class.
Who can I contact to learn more about the school before I apply?

Will I need to buy all new clothes for school because of the dress code?
Our dress code is principle based - Student attire should be (1) God honoring (2) Modest (3) Safe (4) Non-distracting. We partner with parents to guide children to make good choices in the area of appropriate clothing. In most cases, new students do not need to make significant purchases to comply with the LCS student dress code.

Absolutely. We encourage families to read through and understand our Student Handbook. This document explains, in detail, the policies and procedures that are in place this school year. To read our Student Handbook, click here.
