The mission of Lighthouse Community Charter School is to
prepare a diverse K 12 student population for college or
a career of their choice by equipping each child with the knowledge,
skills, and principles to be a self-motivated, lifelong learner.
In order to achieve our mission, the Lighthouse Community Charter
School has committed to five priorities in its school design:
- high expectations,
- a rigorous curriculum,
- serving the whole child,
- family involvement,
- and teachers as learners.
In addition, Lighthouse Community Charter School has created
an innovative educational design that sets us part from traditional
educational choices:
- We utilize low student to teacher ratios
- Students are engaged in hands-on, real world projects that
integrate standards and subject areas.
- Literacy is a focus throughout the entire school and interwoven
into every subject area.
- We commit more time to teaching and learning, with an extended day and extended year program.
- After school programs focus on tutoring and enrichment.
- Every child has an Individualized Learning Plan.
- Families are involved from volunteering to school governance
to teaching and learning.
- Teachers are supported to be constant learners
