Excellent school with the most caring teachers that we have experienced. We have traveled the country over the years and experienced many schools in many cities and by far this is the finest institution we have run into. Thank You LCS for making us feel at home.

My children have been at LCS for 3 years now. I can say that this schools offers a loving environment, small class sizes, a fantastic education and the finest teachers and administration in Broward county. The tuition is significantly less than other schools which tout education but do not deliver. I parent could'nt ask for more.

As a school board member I have been asked by other school administrators and school board officials how our enrollment continues to grow. The simple truth is the staff. The teachers are loving and the adminitration responsive. The families are all close devote much of their time at the school. This is a great environment for family oriented people.

This is my families 4th and fantastic year at LCS. From the teachers to the education to the building to the community, LCS has been a blessing for my family. Not only do our children build life long quality relationships but so do the parents. Both of my children are excelling in academics, have made the greatest friends and are so happy to go to school. LCS has become our extended family : ) Thank you LCS!

My child started at Imagination Station Pre-School at age three. When it was time to think about Kindergarten we looked at all of the big schools from Fort Lauderdale to Boca Raton I have to say that we have never regretted our decision to keep our child in the Schools of the Pink Church and are so happy with Lighthouse Christian School. You will be very hard pressed to find a school that compares to the level of caring, dedication and attention to curriculum that is felt from both the teachers and administration. I encourage you to go to the school website and examine the years and level of experience packed into this great little school.

I've been part of the LCS family for six years and have four children in grades K-5. Three areas that have made this the school for us are: First, our children vary in their academic abilities, LCS has helped each to attain their personal best. They manage to push the gifted while helping the child who needs extra assistance. Second, I would describe the teaching staff as exceptional, loving, cheerful, caring, dedicated, and team oriented. Finaly, I believe as a group, we have the finest group of parents one could hope for, as they are involved in both their children's lives and the school's. I've witnessed countless acts of selfless dedication and truly enjoy their company. This is particularly true this year as we seem to be enjoying a double dose of positive energy and attitude. Thanks to our Lord Jesus Chirst and Go Mariners!

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Unlike public schools, private schools are not always required to report data about their schools or not required to take the same tests as public schools. Many private schools take different standardized tests; however, that information is often made available only to families of enrolled students. We strive to acquire additional private school data whenever available.

Oops! We currently do not have any student information for this school. We rely on the state Department of Education, the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), and in some cases school administrators such as registrars and principals for this data.
