ACADEMICS

 
The average LCL student takes 5 or more advanced placement/dual credit courses.

 

The curriculum provided for students will allow for maximizing individual potential as well as appropriately enhancing the skills necessary for success in today’s modern society. While college preparation is the main focus of our academic program, we provide elective courses which supplement the core curriculum and round out a student’s academic experience. Our Advanced Placement program presents appropriate students the chance to experience the rigor of college courses while finishing their high school education, potentially saving families thousands of dollars in college tuition costs.

LCL gives teachers autonomy in their curriculum.  Teachers select content that teaches Truth and reflects Jesus.  But also, content that allows them to teach in a way that is best suited to their teaching style and their students' needs.  Teacher autonomy allows for flexibility in teaching the unique individuals in our classrooms.

LCL enjoys powerful partnerships with the College Board Advanced Placement Program (AP) as well as Dual Credit Programs with Concordia University - Nebraska, Concordia University - Wisconsin, Grand Canyon University - Arizona, and Waukesha County Technical College (WCTC).
  • LCL's multiple AP results consistently score above state and national averages.
  • Multiple AP courses are available to students across the curriculum (Math, History, Science, English).
  • At WCTC students go to their courses from 8am-12pm daily and arrive at LCL for lunchtime for their final three class periods.
  • The Dual Credit partnerships allow students to take a wide range of classes such as Sports Management, Digital Video Production, Marketing Principals, Firefighter/EMT, Welding/Fabrication, etc.

 

Sam, Class of '24

"The courses are challenging academically speaking, but every teacher doesn’t just give you homework and send you on your way. They give you the tools, skills, and resources needed to be successful. Everybody here I see as family because we all grow together and learn in faith."
