Our Impact

"One of the many qualities that make LCS a great work environment is having a diverse staff. The diversity of our staff helps to make every student feel seen and appreciated. It also helps with building a culture and modeling that for students so that they can learn what it means to be a part of an open-minded and inclusive community."

“When Simon first came to Lighthouse, he was 2 grade levels behind in reading and struggling with appropriate behavior in class. We put together a plan that met him at his reading level and allowed him to slowly work his way up with the help of our reading specialists. His confidence in reading has soared tremendously and his behavior in class has also improved significantly.”

"As a parent and staff member, I feel so excited to share my amazing experiences from preschool to Middle school, every day. We have been a part of the Lighthouse school for over 5 years, but it seems like yesterday when we all started. We have great friends in a community here, that we give praise to Jesus for showing us his love through Lighthouse Christian School. "
