We are a close-knit community that values and nurtures the relationship among teachers, parents, and students.
We inspire children to develop clear values, a desire to learn, and an appreciation for all endeavors which broaden the mind and enlighten the spirit.
In an era of constantly changing educational slogans LRDS remains true to its original mission: to provide a school experience that emphasizes core academic subjects, foreign language, art, drama, music, and physical education; as it supports the intellectual, social, emotional and physical growth of our students.
