Lakeland Christian School

Lakeland Christian School is the oldest and largest private K4-12 school in West Central Florida. Founded in 1954, the recently expanded 27-acre campus is located in the heart of Lakeland. The hallmarks of the school are strong academics, championship athletics, award-winning fine arts, and a close-knit school-family partnership. At Lakeland Christian School, we take a seamless approach to education by preparing students not only in the classroom, but on the playing field, on the stage, through leadership opportunities, through chapel time, through extracurricular activities and with friends through social interaction. Every experience at LCS is intended to raise the bar in the student's own life as it relates to excellence. While many Christian schools provide an excellent spiritual environment for their students, academics are secondary and second rate. At LCS, our students first and foremost receive a first-rate education. They also learn that excellence goes beyond academic ability; excellence is demonstrated in the students' commitment to people, in their depth of integrity, in their willingness to work hard, and in their leadership abilities. Our student body is made up of more than 1,000 students and represent over 170 different local churches.
