Bible Fair
- As many of you may have heard, 1st grade teacher Mrs. Jami Jaeger was recently in an automobile accident.  She is recovering but is still not at school with us.  We ask that the LCA family be praying for her healing during this time. 

Due to the absence of Mrs. Jaeger, who spearheads our annual Bible Fair, we are postponing the Bible Fair until later in the year.  The Bible Fair is an important part of the culture of LCA, and we value it.  We also are so thankful for Mrs. Jaeger, whose passion for it and desire to orchestrate it well make it such an amazing event.  We truly do not want her to miss out on this so will be rescheduling it once we know more.

Is your Junior or Senior planning on attending a postsecondary institution?  - On Oct. 17th, beginning at 6:00 p.m., LCA will host the first of two family/parent nights to better help prepare families/students for postsecondary plans.  On October 17, information will be presented about the college application process, postsecondary institution planning and selection, and attaining scholarships.  

FAFSA Night - On November 13, LCA will host a FAFSA night, where families, under guidance from a trained counselor, can fill out the FAFSA on site while learning more about its importance and necessity.  Senior parents whose students are planning to attend a postsecondary training or academic institution are strongly encouraged to attend.  Junior parents curious about what's next are welcome as well.

Parent Survey – Thank you to all the parents and families who have filled out the feedback survey.  We appreciate you taking the time to do so and are currently evaluating the feedback to see how we can continue to provide an excellent education for students and studying how we can continue to grow and improve. If you have not taken the survey, here is the link:  Parent Feedback Survey
