Founded in 1908, LCDS is an independent school that uniquely houses Preschool through 12th grade under one roof. This physical proximity, combined with our small class sizes and dedicated educators, results in a community that is deeply connected, with meaningful relationships among its students and strong ties between students and their teachers.

At LCDS, we strive to live our motto everyday. Fax mentis et cordis incendium gloriae: The spark that kindles the mind and heart illuminates a lifetime.
