Vision Statement

Families, staff and community working together to graduate successful learners who are job, school, and life-ready.

Our vision places LCPCS at the heart of our community, a place where shared cultural and community values are transformed into action and everyone has a role to play in ensuring that students succeed, families are engaged, and teachers thrive. Students, parents, staff and community members envision the school as a place of high level achievement, family support, community engagement, and leadership development.

Our community school will be a place where:

• the school culture supports continuous improvement
• everyone believes all students can learn
• instruction focuses on preparing students for their future
• students make seamless transitions
• supportive and successful relationships thrive
• ·operations are effective, efficient, and transparent
• decisions are evidence-based
• individual responsibility and institutional accountability are the norm
• parents and community members are welcome on campus and meaningfully involved in school governance and other activities

We envision a thriving school as the heart of the community: When children and adults alike are seen as works in progress, striving to learn and grow, the school becomes the center of daily life.
