Q: Why should I enroll my child in L’Anse Creuse Public Schools?
A: There are several reasons why parents choose L’Anse Creuse. In addition to our exceptional academic standards that have resulted in numerous educational excellence awards, students entering LCPS have greater choice as they progress through their education. Programs such as the Math/Science/Technology Center, Performing Arts Consortium, career and technical education courses, summer school and other non-traditional programs are unique assets not found in our neighboring districts. These offerings provide students with a richer learning experience that prepares them for our technology enriched society.
Perhaps the greatest asset to LCPS is our relationship with the community. Parents and community are considered valuable partners and strong contributors to the overall mission of our district.
