School Reviews

LCS has been a blessing to me in many ways. I attended Laf Christian from Kindergarten-8th grade and now my children attend/attended there. Our children are taught what is most important-to love and serve God in all of life. They were academically prepared for high school as well-their freshman year was even easy because they were taught so well at LCS. The teachers are amazing and go above and beyond and really love each child for who God made them to be! Praise God for the blessing of LCS!!

Wonderful education with Christ-centered perspective. Wouldn't want my kids to go anywhere

I've been a teacher and parent at LCS for over 12 years and can say that it's the best school in town. I've also had experience in the public schools and another private school and can say that LCS has a loving, family atmosphere that you can't find anywhere else. It is a wonderful experience to be able to pray for the children and their families whenever needed. LCS excels when there is a loss of a loved one or a family is going through a difficult time. I love that Bible class and Biblical principals are weaved into the curriculum. Since there is chapel every Friday, the children are worshiping and experiencing a mini church each week. Teachers go above and beyond to bring out the best in their students and they work hard at cultivating positive relationships with families. LCS definitely equips each unique child to love and serve God in all of life.
