Who We Are
On the first day of school
in September of 1947, 183 students arrived at the newly
constructed school campus to pursue a distinctly
Christian education. Today, more than 600 students from 29 public school districts are having their educational needs met at Lake
Center.
Lake Center Christian School
is an elementary and secondary private Christian school offering a Christ-centered education to students in
Kindergarten through twelfth grade.
LCCS is the oldest
Protestant school in Stark County and is chartered by
the state of Ohio. Representatives from over 100 congregations attend Lake Center.
Unlike public schools,
private Christian schools have the unique opportunity to
bring Biblical application into all classroom
experiences. At LCCS, students will receive a
quality education taught with a distinctly Bible-based
worldview.
Lake Center Christian School
is owned and governed
by three area Mennonite churches - Hartville Mennonite, Maple Grove Mennonite,
and Cornerstone Mennonite. A 70-member corporation makes up the
governing body of LCCS and includes 20 representatives from each of the
Mennonite congregations and 10 board-appointed members who may be from other
congregations.
A nine-member board meets monthly to establish policy and
set vision. The
Board of Trustees appoints the faculty and the
administrative persons as well as the following
committees to assist in the operation of the school:
- Athletic Committee
- Building and Grounds Committee
- Development Committee
- Education Committee
- Finance
Committee
- Kaufman
Center Trustees
- Nominating Committee
- Personnel Committee
- Spiritual Advisory Committee
- Transportation Committee
