WELCOME COLLEGE AND CAREER CURRICULUM TECHNOLOGY FINE ARTS

WELCOME TO UPPER SCHOOL

We, at LCA, recognize that in order to educate children of the 21st century for the modern job market, staying current is not sufficient, as today’s current is tomorrow’s obsolete. We teach our students to be innovators by crossing disciplinary boundaries and exploring problems and their solutions from various perspectives. Therefore, it is our responsibility to provide our students with curriculum that evokes creativity, innovation, problem solving, and experience-based inquiry.

We recognize students learn in a variety of ways and have different strengths and weaknesses. For these reasons, teachers use a variety of teaching methods, strategies, and assessments to spur the student to his or her full potential. To further enhance the curriculum, the iLearn initiatives are implemented based on the appropriateness for each grade level. We hold to the most effective, research-based methods of instruction while also embracing the technology of today.

Core subjects include language arts, mathematics, science, social studies, and Bible. Electives include performing and visual arts, music, Spanish, and physical education.

Middle School students are encouraged to establish friendships important to self-esteem during several outings throughout the school year. Educational trips reinforce the curricular program as well as opportunities to continue building relationships.
