About Us
We’re a team of high capacity, Christ-centered individuals focused on fulfilling the Great Commission by reaching the next generation for Christ. At Lighthouse Christian School we strive to build a Christian community focused on modeling through action what serving Christ looks like in a challenging culture where self is often put first. Students are encouraged to exhort one another with positive peer pressure in an atmosphere where a personal relationship with Jesus is celebrated and honored within our school community.
