Lunch Program:
Our lunch program is through Crave-It Nutrition. They offer lunch purchase options from their kitchen and different vendors daily, as well as a la carte items. All details are managed by the Crave-It program, and details can be found in the Resource Depot or linked in the LCCS App.

Communication:
There are several methods the school uses to communicate with Eagle families.

  • App: Download the LCCS App from your app store. The app and our website will be invaluable tools throughout the year. The app will give you secure log-in access to features in your FACTS account, such as lunch orders, financials, and your child’s academic info. Through other links, you can easily access public features like school calendars, athletics schedules, and more!
  • Website: We house important documents and policies in Resource Depots that are divided into key areas to make finding what you need easier. Examples include school supply lists, handbooks, and other forms/links.
  • Newsletter: During the school year, we send a weekly all-school newsletter via email each Monday to all our Eagle families. You can find it each week in your email or conveniently linked in the LCCS app for quick access.

Getting Ready for the Year:
As mentioned in the communication section, our school website has Resource Depots full of information for students and parents. Visit the Resource Depot for your child’s grade level to find School Supply lists for items needed to start the school year off right.

Technology:

  • Every 9th-12th grade student is responsible for purchasing a device with the appropriate requirements to use in the classroom and at home each day. The BYOD, Bring Your Own Device policy approves iPads or laptops for class use. Be sure and review tech requirements on the school supply list.
  • Students in elementary, intermediate, and middle school will have access to a school iPad, and PK/Kinder Prep may share classroom devices.

After-School Care:
Our after-school care serves students from PK through 6th grade until 5:00 or 6:00 PM (end time decided yearly) for an additional fee. Once updated in August, additional details on extended care will be available in the Resource Depot.

Back-to-School Kick-Off:
We host a morning in August as a fun Eagle family way to kick off the new school year. This is a great opportunity to hear from the Head of School, meet and greet other Eagle families, learn more about LCCS programs, and pick up spirit gear. New students/families will be notified of orientation times that might apply to their grade level. Schedules for grades 5-12 are made available on this day so families can walk through campus and say hello to teachers. There may be a designated time to drop off supplies and meet the teacher on the same day or a different designated day before school starts. Stay up to date with the school calendar in our LCCS app or on the website at www.lccs.org.

Please note that as we move into the summer months, some details for our 2026-27 academic year are subject to change as we continue to plan, improve, and finalize programs.
