FACULTY & STAFF

Leading The Way

At LHS, every student is a unique child of God with individual strengths, challenges and potential. We believe that meaningful, one-on-one relationships between students and their teachers are essential for deep, lasting learning. That’s why we prioritize connection and care in everything we do.

Our distinctive block scheduling creates space for intentional mentorship and strong relationships. With fewer students each semester, our faculty can invest more time in guiding, supporting and encouraging each learner.

Driven by a shared mission of Christ-centered service, the LHS team is committed to helping students grow spiritually, academically and personally in a nurturing and purpose-filled environment.
