The best way for a student to get to know LCA is to come and see us in person! There are a few different Open Houses, each designed to give you a taste of LCA at a time that will fit your schedule! If you can not make an Open House, or want to get in the door a little sooner, we’d love to give you a tour!
Schedule a meeting

*This is a required part of the application process.
November 1
FINANCIAL AID APPLICATIONS OPEN
Learn More
At LCA, tuition alone does not cover the full cost to educate a student. The excellence your child experiences each day is made possible by a community of generosity, vision, and faithful stewardship.
Here’s how we make it possible, and how we continue to grow:
Endowment:
LCA’s scholarship program is sustained by our endowment, built over time through the generosity of hundreds of donors who believed in making Christ-centered education accessible for future generations.
Campus Stewardship:
Thanks to donor-funded capital improvements, we steward our campus year-round (with summer camps, rentals, and partnerships) that generate auxiliary income to help fund financial aid.
Annual Investment in the Strategic Plan:
Philanthropic support helps close the gap between what it costs to educate and what it takes to grow. This investment is what turns a great year into an extraordinary one—expanding programs, supporting faculty, and driving forward our strategic vision.
________________________________
*All Financial Aid is awarded during the priority application season. We strongly suggest completing this financial aid form as soon as possible as remaining aid is first come first serve.
*Limited merit-based scholarships are awarded to new LCA families. No additional form or application is needed to be considered for scholarships.
