My 3 daughters have been attending this school for a few years. The curriculum is very basic and it is not at all faith based. The principal is not a person of faith and has stated she doesn’t run the school upholding the morals and ethics of Biblical teaching. They do not allow for parental input regarding school policies or procedures. The administration is extremely callous and unkind in interacting with parents.

Exceptional school!!! Teachers are outstanding; including the music teacher, PE teacher, Spanish teacher, the lunch room is incredible first time ever my kids loved buying lunches!Lighthouse Christian has always made us feel special. It's our home away from home for sure. The Principal - Mrs. O'Leary is a wonderful Principal, so caring and keeps all of our children safe!!

Both of my children have attended LCS since Kindergarten. The caring teachers and small small class sizes have been a key factor in their educational success. LCS does not have a “one size fits all” approach to educating the children, like many other of the Faith based schools in the area. When searching for a school, I liked that my children would not have to switch schools during the critical middle school years. The variety of extracurriculars offered is impressive for a school of this size. Art and music are a part of the regular curriculum unlike many public schools these days. LCS is a neighborhood school with a strong sense of community.

Our experience with LCS was wonderful. We mostly accessed the Middle School, which was supportive and had small classes. 20 kids to a class is very manageable for the teachers and the students. The teachers were amazing and very approachable when extra help was needed. An example, once I requested a conference about Math and the entire team showed up to talk about my son's overall experience and abilities. Wow, that never happened at our previous school. We found the administration was very involved and reasonable. The drama program is exceptional and all the hands on trips and activities were amazing. All around great experience, I wish it didn't end in 8th grade.

Not all as rosey as it looks. The school tolerates some pretty terrible behavior from a certain few if they're either giving money to the school or are children of one of the teachers. They also refuse to listen to bad reports of one of their poorly qualified, terrible 3rd grade teachers. They pretend to the parents that "nobody else has complained--this is the first I've heard of this problem" when that's not true in the slightest. When this teacher subbed last year before becoming a full time teacher--half the class threatened to leave the school. But it gets swept under the carpet and the teacher was then hired full-time because they were too lazy to look harder for other teachers! They lose a lot of students every year--the good ones--because of these problems. They'll also enroll anyone. One boy was kicked out of three other schools for disciplinary problems yet LCS took him in and he continued to cause problems there! We moved to another private school after just 2 years. Too many issues here that are intolerable and covered up with a big fake smile. Be warned! Do your research and talk to many families.
