Love God. Love People. Serve Others.
At LCA, our high school program is built around a clear purpose:
Love God. Love People. Serve Others.
We believe education should shape both the mind and the heart. Our students are challenged through strong academics, competitive athletics, and meaningful extracurricular opportunities, all within a Christ-centered community that values character, leadership, and service.
At LCA, students are known, supported, and encouraged to grow—academically, spiritually, and personally. Whether preparing for college, pursuing athletics, or discovering their calling, our students are equipped to lead with integrity and compassion beyond graduation.
We don’t just prepare students for what’s next—we prepare them for who they’re becoming.
Sincerely,
Mr. Gabe Pethtel
High School Principal | Assistant Head of School
