          We teach a classical, Christian education which means we look at everything in life and learning through the crystal clear and true lens of Christianity.   We see God and His handiwork in the beautiful world which He gave us to live, through the humanity of our fellow man, and in the inherent dignity He bestowed upon us.  All our subjects are taught knowing God is the author of all to be learned worthwhile.  He made up the math, as well as the science.  He inspired the great literature we read, the beautiful art we study, and soul touching music we are fortunate to hear.  He made the very tongues that speak Latin, English, and Spanish, etc. and the ears that hear the words said.  He was there when all history was made and subsequently recorded.  Our curriculum and philosophy are a result of that knowledge.  Our mantra is to seek to cultivate wisdom and virtue through the good, the beautiful and the true.
          Knowledge is power and must be coupled with virtue.  We believe our curriculum and the instruction of our teachers instruct students to differentiate and know the value of courage over cowardice, loyalty over disloyalty, generosity over avarice, truth over untruth, and love over hate.  Knowledge without virtue and wisdom is dangerous and can be misused to the harm of many.  Knowledge carries with it an inherent necessity to use it wisely and virtuously.  Wisdom and virtue only come from God and the provisions He grants us to know and recognize it.   We use curriculum and good teachers who inspire students to answer to the higher calling of wisdom and virtue. “A teacher affects eternity.  He never knows where his influence stops”.

Our goal is to cultivate wisdom and virtue through the good, the beautiful, and the true.  We use our beautiful and wonderful curriculum and our masterful teachers to accomplish this goal.  Our culture at LLS promotes respect and caring one for another.


Our school creates an environment conducive to academic excellence and the formation of Christian character.  We believe wisdom and virtue must walk hand in hand.
