Through a classical program integrated with interdisciplinary opportunities across the curriculum, our program teaches 6th-8th graders to ask difficult questions, tackle ambitious academic goals, and develop a Christ-centered confidence in their gifts and abilities.

LCA’s Upper School program extends the skills and lessons learned and Middle School, preparing students to succeed in education and life after graduation. College advising and rigorous AP, honors, and prep courses, combined with athletics and arts programs help students find the opportunities that allow them to use and leverage their gifts throughout their future.
