La Lumiere School shapes the complete student in character, scholarship, and faith. One hour from Chicago, our curriculum, small classes, and dedicated faculty provide an academic environment with emphasis on the individual learner.
The core of our mission is to nurture and develop the whole individual in an academically challenging environment. This foundation provides La Lumiere graduates with a distinct advantage over most of their peers: they are trained to think critically, articulate clearly, and take action confidently -- with a solid awareness of morals and values. Our rigorous education, personal relationships, and focus on values create a rich learning environment for students. They are known by faculty, staff and other students from all grades. This familiarity enables our students to make lasting connections, engage in academics, participate socially, and define their path. Weekly activities, compulsory after school activities, a distinctive theatre program, and a competitive science team provide opportunities for students to explore their interests outside the classroom. A diverse campus population completes the La Lumiere experience.
