Here is how enrollment works at LCS!

1. Apply for admission

LCS is committed to making Christian education available to all children whose parents or guardians desire it for them, without discrimination on the basis of race, color, sex, national or ethical origin, or financial status. To apply to attend LCS, please complete the on-line application and submit it before your scheduled interview or, for existing LCS families, before enrolling additional children. If you need assistance with any of these steps, please contact our admissions team at 517-438-8820. We are willing to walk you through these steps in person or over the phone.

2. Interviewing and testing

Following your application submittal, you will be contacted by our admissions team to schedule a testing and interviewing time with one of our principals or administrators, depending on the age(s) of your children. The parent/guardian and student(s) are required to attend the interview. Please submit the following items via email or fax at least 24-hours prior to your scheduled interview:

  1. A copy of the student’s birth certificate

  2. A copy of the most recent report card and/or transcripts (if applicable)

  3. Previous standardized test scores (if applicable)

Our testing process involves two standardized assessments; one in math and one in reading. We want every child to be successful at LCS. These tests allow us to make sure we have the right fit and placement for the student. It also gives our faculty a head start on teaching your child, as the tests provide valuable insights in regard to their strengths and weaknesses.

Open Enrollment for new families begins each year on March 1 for the following school year.  
We encourage you to enroll as early as possible since it impacts our ability to plan and budget for the coming year. If space is available, immediate enrollment for the current school year is possible.

 

5. Fill out variable tuition application

(This is optional)

Tuition at LCS is not one-size-fits-all. It’s a range. More than 70% of our families pay less than full tuition through our Variable Tuition program. All Variable Tuition applications must be submitted within the first two weeks of a student’s first day of school. We encourage families to apply as early as possible this year to ensure funds are reserved. Once you have your tax returns completed, you will have all the information required for the application. To learn more about Variable Tuition, please contact our admissions department.
