sharp! The staff has truly brought the best out of our children. Extra Curricular Activities are balanced. Several Athletic Programs are in the 'building stage' including high school football, track, and baseball. Boys and Girls Basketball and Girls Volleyball have been very successful. Our children have also enjoyed band and choir. I would recommend the school to any family where a faith based education emphasizing academic excellence is important. We plan to continue on at ALCS through high school. Read less

thoughts of the parents which is very frustrating. They also, which as a private school, do not notify parents until the last moment that their child may be behind in a class which then causes a great deal of stress.
