The Lighthouse School

Vision

For the Lighthouse School to provide the educational and social support to foster student; talents, skills and collaborations as they become life-long contributors to their community.

At The Lighthouse School, parents, teachers, students, and community members have joined together in the pursuit of an innovative educational opportunity. In a small school setting spanning grades PreK through 8, students become more than passive recipients of facts; instead they must engage their mind, their body, and their will, in order to discover and process information. We seek to have every student reach new levels, both academically and socially. Through patience, a deep understanding of child-development, and consistency in structure and rhythm, students are asked to think more critically and creatively each day. Regular opportunities to share knowledge and “re-teach” others serve to enrich understandings along the way. Lighthouse students are challenged and inspired in an environment that allows each one of them to make a unique contribution to the classroom. It is our desire to continue to ignite and sustain a passion for lifelong learning, in a setting known for excellence.

Mission

Our mission is to provide students and their families with a challenging and creative learning environment dedicated to academic excellence. Utilizing an eclectic approach to holistic education, we create an atmosphere in which children can reach their social, creative, and intellectual potential. The Lighthouse School values and models compassion for all living things, respect for the environment, and an appreciation for a changing and diverse world. We nurture the whole child--head, heart, and hands.
