School Reviews

Our son attended LSCA for four years and was able to graduate early after receiving all the individual help he needed that he was not able to get in a public school. The Christian education and influence has helped him to continually grow in his faith even after his high school years. My daughter has just started attending LSCA for high school and we are all very excited to know that she will receive the same great Christian education and support that her brother did. Tuition is reasonable, teachers are very qualified and the learning environment is a positive one.
