| A Word From Our Head of School

Dear LCA families,
We have officially reached the halfway point of the academic school year. I encourage both students and parents to reflect on their progress thus far. Let us take a moment to celebrate successes.
• Boys' basketball, co-ed wrestling, and middle school and high school cheer appeared at State-level competitions.
• The High School Drama Troupe was recognized as State Honorees with “Excellent” performance ratings.
• Elementary students demonstrated academic growth and enthusiasm to worship Jesus during chapel.
• Recently, Upper School students took a Deep Dive into the word of God during Spiritual Emphasis Week.
• Elementary Honor Roll: 43% of students in grades 4 and 5 achieved a GPA equal to or greater than 3.5 during the second quarter.
• Upper School Honor Roll: 53% of students in grades 6-12 achieved a GPA equal to or greater than 3.5 during the first semester.
All of this requires the dedication of a committed faculty and staff. Thankfully, LCA has been blessed with the best!
During the month of March, Christians all around the world will celebrate Holy Week. Holy Week is the week leading up to Easter Sunday, commemorating the final week of the life of Jesus. Students will participate in a Good Friday Chapel on Thursday, March 28, at 2:00 p.m. We welcome all families to attend. If you do not already have a church to love, I invite you to attend one of the many services at Life Center during Easter weekend.
Every Spring, LCA hosts the Dreams Auction to raise funds to support our vibrant program. The money raised during the auction contributes to capital, technological, and security improvements, advances student programs, and supports tuition assistance. We ask that every family consider donating or procuring at least one item or service. Click here for more information. Click here to purchase a ticket to the Dreams Auction tickets on Saturday, April 27, at Farm 12.
I want to express my gratitude for your continued partnership and support. Together, we are shaping the future leaders of tomorrow, grounded in faith, knowledge, and compassion.
Joyfully,
Michelle Buntain Cox
Interim Head of School
