Small Middle School Environment
LACS Middle School is an excellent school for students interested in leadership opportunities and high academics standards. All our subjects and skills are presented in a close-knit, caring environment by dedicated and experienced teachers and staff. Leadership, organizational skills and community service are essential parts of our mission.
For students who may struggle in school, the Student Progress Achievement Network (SPAN) is the perfect venue for them to learn and thrive. Five mornings a week the students meet with the SPAN teacher for language arts and organizational skills. This program allows students to focus on areas of difficulty ensuring them greater academic success.
