Our Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) program allows high school students to bring their choice of device, such as a laptop or iPad. Students are responsible for purchasing a device that meets the school’s minimum requirements, as listed each year in the school supply list, and ensuring they have it available daily in the classroom and at home.

Biblical Worldview is infused into all classes and subjects at LCCS! Every teacher and coach teaches through the lens of CBRR, the knowledge that we are Created, Broken, Redeemed, and Restored. Using CBRR, we train students to see every lift situation through a Biblical perspective.

Lake Country Christian High School utilizes a Modified Block Schedule.

As you progress through your educational experience, life at Lake Country Christian High School is enriched through extracurricular opportunities.

The House System:  The purpose of the House system is to provide a means of building unity, loyalty, and tradition through the high school over an extended period of time. It is designed to encourage and increase competition among the students, and to create a supportive environment. It also provides leadership opportunities. It originated in British boarding schools where students actually lived in “house” units and started at LCCS in 2008. The LCCS Houses of Blanton, Byers, McElreath, and Maulden are named after persons with founding connections to the school. Each House has distinguishing character qualities, a color, and an animal mascot. The high school student body is divided into four mixed gender mixed grade level groups. All members of the same family are placed in the same house. The Houses do not replace grouping students by grade level for Pep Rallies and other traditional events.

Student Council:  The LCCS Student Council allows students to participate in a representative governing body at an appropriate level for high school students. Student Council members provide input, organize, coordinate, and carry out plans for special events throughout the year, including New Student Orientation, Open House, Spirit Week, Love Your Neighbor Week, Homecoming, and Spring Formal.

Eagle Ambassadors: These students serve as the face of the school in several ways. They make up our yearly shadow buddies when prospective students visit, serve as event greeters/door holders, and are used for various student-led admissions or advancement events throughout the year. EAs are nominated by staff members each year.

Spiritual Life

Lake Country Christian High School is an extension of the Christian home and local church. We are committed to providing opportunities for students to come to faith in Christ, teaching them who they are in him, and fostering growth in a real relationship with God. Bible classes, chapels, retreats, biblically infused academic instruction, and relationships with other students, teachers, and administrators whose lives reflect Christ help students love God and want to know him better.

Community Outreach and Missions

Lake Country Christian High School is committed to missions. Acts 1:8 commands us to be witnesses in Jerusalem (Fort Worth), Judea (Texas), Samaria (Mexico), and the uttermost parts of the earth (overseas). Our desire is to give students an opportunity to fulfill these verses and to see God’s purposes revealed.

We strongly believe that students should learn early on the importance of giving back to the community and sharing God’s love with others on a practical level. High school students are encouraged to serve locally or through domestic and international mission trips.

• High school students have traveled with LCCS to Galveston, Arizona, Missouri, Colorado, New York, El Paso/Juarez, New Mexico, Honduras, Spain, Dominican Republic, Thailand, Peru, Argentina, Panama, Romania, Scotland, Germany, India, Turkey, England, South Africa, Czech Republic, El Salvador, Hungary, and Italy to serve through building projects, disaster recovery, feeding the poor, working with schools/orphanages/medical clinics, evangelism, intercession, and outreach through the arts or sports and cultural exchanges.
• Throughout the year, students come together to plan, gather needed resources, and provide support for community-based organizations such as Beautiful Feet Ministries, Tarrant Area Food Bank, Union Gospel Mission, Life Unlimited Ministries, and Saginaw’s Community Link Mission.
• LCCS IN ACTION is a service and fundraising opportunity designated each fall to allow students to serve together at local community-based organizations.

On-Campus Opportunities:

Throughout the year, we emphasize spiritual growth through a variety of experiences:

• Weekly Chapel involving praise and worship and diving deeper into areas through different speakers.
• Discipleship Groups allow small group opportunities to debrief chapel topics and support each other regularly.
• Bible Buddies is a treasured monthly mentoring session after each all-school chapel that pairs each high school student with a “buddy” from a younger school division. They complete an activity, pray together, and build lasting relationships by keeping their same Bible Buddy for the entire school year.
• Worship Culture provides students the opportunity to use their talents to glorify God through leading worship and learning more about the tasks that are involved in providing a special time of praise and worship before chapels or special events.
